We’ve updated the last photo, tiara added.

Today was Megan’s first ultrasound. We got to see the embryo squirm around like a freshly caught fish trying to jump the net. It showed off it’s dance moves nearly the entire 5minutes the doctor moved the ultrasound stick around. It was fun, except when she tried to capture a 3-D image it came out a little fuzzy. Amazing what these machines are able to show:

Posterior view
This one really shows off the backbone.

3-D
OK, so here it looks like an alien. This was a really neat 3D shot the doctor took but it came out a little fuzzy. The leg is actually the left leg crossed over and the thing running down in front of the chest that looks like a churro is the umbilical cord.

Side shot
So this one is a little hard to interpret unless you know what you’re doing. Luckily Brett’s razor sharp observational skills were atuned to the doctor’s orientation as she pointed out the embryo’s anatomy while capturing this photo. Afterwards, he found a doodling feature on the ultrasound machine and when the doctor left the room for Megan to get dressed, he went to work. Here’s the interpretation:

Excited to meet our new daughter.

We’re excited to be having our first baby. Megan’s about 2 months in and due on September 7th. We’ve got decisions to make, including moving to a place with a second bedroom, getting a car with more than two doors, and how to keep dingos from eating our baby – sorry, one Seinfeld reference is not enough! Until then Megan is experiencing the pleasantries of nausea and Brett is enjoying the sympathy eating. We’ll keep you updated here on bmharvey.com.
