Ultrasound Photos

The baby is now 20 weeks old, and approximately 7.5 inches long!

These first two photos the baby is in profile facing right, with forearms and hands in front of her face. She is opening and closing her hands, which you can't tell here.




On the left is a close-up of the profile, with the forehead shape, nose, and lips visible. An ear is visible on the side of her head, look for the ear-shaped edge of light. One forearm is facing the camera with the elbow in the lower left corner and a fist up by her jawline, and her other arm is pointing away from the camera into the darkness.




Below is a photo of the baby facing the "camera" and waving her arms. At right is the same photo where I tried to trace it's shape so that you could see the arms, head and body. (The arm on the right has its elbow pointing toward you and its hand back by its ear.) Maybe it will help...
