This is a photo of today's ultrasound, of Baby Thomas thumb sucking. The sonographer said that she knew exactly where her mouth was, and we saw her go for it with her thumb. She knows exactly what she's doing. :)
I had breakfast with a friend and she came with me to the ultrasound. It was fun having a girl friend there to make the moment. Love you, L! :)
Another shot of baby here: frontal shot showing her eyes (yes, it's a bit haunting) but trust me, her activities were everything but: thumb sucking, swallowing, wiggling arms/toes/hands...

Again we got a negative on the Down's syndrome, a healthy spine, no issues with cleft lip or palate. Of course a relief.
She looked and measured everything from the arms, legs, head, body, lips, and feet. She's 10 inches tall from head to foot. I'm about 10 lbs up this week, (11 lbs last) and working on putting on a pound this week. Breakfast at the deli is really helping. I started drinking half caffe coffee again, and did so right before the ultrasound. She was moving frequently, but not as much as before. Less room in there, maybe? It still seems like there's plenty of room in there.

Also, of course the sonographer went in for the second shot of baby moving from the bottom. One of the first shots of baby was between the legs, and still nothing growing there. When the sonographer got to checking the sex, she was cross-legged, but we managed to get a look at the gender, and once again:
Girl!
So, we're not painting pink, but it's still a good bet. She said she was 95% sure. David is too. I think he just wants a daughter...
