It's a boy!

We had an ultrasound today, and saw BBM at 19 weeks. The doctor seemed certain it is a boy - the pictures haven't scanned in very well, but the originals seem to support his theory.

The first words out of John's mouth were 'its got a HUGE head', to which the doctor responded that that was not the most reassuring thing to say to an expectant mother :D Perhaps we'll call him 'Noggin'.

We saw everything, and saw him moving. He's becoming quite active, and seemed to enjoy 'Minority Report' last night.

Check out the photos.

Leg (it's upside-down, thigh on the right, foot on the left):

The decisive piece of anatomy (looking from below the baby, the pelvis is top right):
