Meet the Little Bean

Ultrasound Picture from November 26: To help navigate, find the bean-shaped thing in the middle of the picture, surrounded by black fluid (the amniotic fluid). You are looking at a side profile of the entire baby on its back. The head is on the left and the butt is on the right. The legs and arms are so thin, they are hard to see in the picture but you could easily see him kicking them around when the tech pressed the dopler on my belly. The bean is approximately 10 weeks old in the picture. His heartrate was 160 bpm. I called him a "him" after seeing him that day, but still have no feeling whatsoever about whether it is a girl or boy.
