Below are the first two echos of our son or daughter. They were taken on April 18, when Grippy was 8 weeks old. We have come to name the baby-in-progress Grippy, because it better hold on tight with Cindy's happy bouncing. Or the palsy as some would say... If you click on the images you get a larger version.

The echo below is a zoomed-in version of the left echo shown above. It was already wonderful to see Grippy on the ultrasound, but as an added bonus we could even see the heart beat. Grippy is now about 2 cm (a little over half an inch) long.

This image shows a foetus at 8 weeks, which is just as old as Grippy is. For more on foetal development, go to these webpages.
