Today Mommy, Daddy and I had a special surprise. They went in to the see the genetic counselor (because all the doctors kept pressuring Mommy so she finally gave in). The counselor was very funny and friendly and she began to make a family tree. Mommy told the nice lady that she was going to run out of room on that little piece of paper. Sure enough... Anyway, the lady said that most likely if my chromosomes were messed up I wouldn't have made it this far. She said that Mommy's side of the family had tested the theory and there were PLENTY of healthy babies to prove it. Then she told them that they would get another sonogram. Mommy said it was the best day of her life...but she was just kidding, I think.
I played a lot when we were in there. I grabbed a hold of my toe-sies and put my hands on my head. The whole time my mouth was open. I was singing and talking and kissing hello to my parents. I couldn't stop moving...it's so fun swimming around in here. The doctor once again told my parents I was a girl, and showed them the parts to prove it...How embarrassing!
It was a fun day. I'll post pictures of myself soon, so everyone can see. I still look alien-ish, but much more like a baby than last time. Oh yeah, I weigh a whopping 2 lbs 7 oz and I'm measuing 28.9 weeks instead of 27.8 like I really am. I think I may have Daddy's build.
Love,
Sophie Rinard
