Did i just see a willy Faye?



Faye had her 20 week scan brought forward last Friday.
She had her triple test and the test showed signs of posible eclampsia. This means that later on during the pregnancy the placenta may not be able to provide the baby with everything it needs for it's development. It can , if left, cause serious harm to the baby and Faye. But if caught early the baby and mother stand a great chance of being fine. At this stage it's just purely precautionary so i'm not that worried.

So , the scan. well this scan was so much more precisionary. The midwife scanned everything in more detail. The Heart ( man that was something seeing the baby's heart pump) , kidneys, spinal collumn and even electrical activity in the baby's brain. She even managed to measure the length of the baby's limbs.
however what i am 99.9% sure of is that i caught sight of possibly " another limb". As the scan moved over the tummy i am so sure i saw a little willy.
Before you say " Andy that was probably the umbilical cord" i can tell you that as the scan was taking place i kept asking, ( quite clever of me i think) is that still the umbilical cord?. I reckon she caught on to me but i never asked any direct questions so she probably respected that.

If we do have a boy i will be overjoyed. A Girl?? Just as happy, as long as my baby and Faye are healthy and able to see the joy on my face then a happy man i'll be.

If you look at the top scan then you can see my little 'un with it's head to the side , eyes showing, ( welling up again).

Finally for those of you who don't already know, our local Hospital do not tell you the sex of the baby for reasons i shall not go into.

We will however be going to a private Hospital not too far away to find this out.
In the meantime say a quiet prayer for Faye and baby, i do every day.
