Baby Seymour At 20 Weeks 4 Days

We've just got back from our second scan appointment and this one was way cooler and far more impressive than the first scan. The baby is naturally much bigger and all it's little features are more defined and so much easier to see. The amount of detail is unbelievable too; you can see the kidneys, bladder, the lips, facial profile (we're in for a hottie/handsome one ;-) ) and even the chambers of the heart.

It's truly amazing to watch this little being stretch, roll, wave, drink and dance around inside Claire's tummy (I might be partly to blame), which brings us nicely onto the next part...

The little one really was in the mood to be on TV - in a performing way, not a sit down and smile way. For a start, it was breech which apparently makes some of the checks a bit harder. It was very very active and wouldn't stop performing for the camera long enough for the nurse to do all the checks and the little one is also a little on the small side for it's calculated age. As a result, we've got to go back for another scan in two weeks time to get the final tests completed and confirmation of the gender.

Until then, for your viewing pleasure, may I present two more photos of our little one, taken a few seconds apart...
