Scan
For those who haven't already seen wychylips livejournal, she had her first scan at 14 weeks on Friday. I was going to take the day off work as holiday, but we've got a deadline next week so I decided to work from home. I took my laptop to work on Thursday to set it up and then spent Friday morning sitting in our comfortable reclining chair with our laptop ("my laptop and my comfy chair", says Gemma).
In the afternoon I went down to the Whittington Hospital to meet Gemma. I carried on working with laptop in the waiting room and was told off by Gemma for taking calls on my mobile from work.
We were relieved when the scan showed that there was actually a baby in there. It was hard to make out which end was which, but after a while I could make out its head, body and limbs, complete with little fingers, and see its spine. Her next scan is at 20 weeks (on 25th January) by which time we might be able to tell whether it's a boy or a girl. We've been unable, so far, to think of any boys names which we like.
