21 weeks

Mer promptly took this to work and showed it to everyone.

In proving that "everyone" acts like they're 12 just as I do, most people said that the leg in the picture was actually an enormous penis.

In fact, we decided not to find out anything about gender. However, at various times I thought I saw the tiny meat and two veg... and at other times I thought I saw the three dots that would signify girl bits.

Everything's normal. Placenta, cervix, umbilical cord, feet, heart, head, hands/fingers -- all good.

Mer does, however, have a baseball-sized fibroid that will likely require a C-section, which is just fine by her. She has other fibroids that swim around in there; none of them are affecting fetal growth, however.

I guess everybody's kid looks like the Star Child from 2001 at this stage. One thing's for sure, though: this kid is doomed to have an enormous schnoz, just like either mommy or daddy.

Hee... wait 'till you get a load of daddy, little one!
