The Offspring

No not the band.........the -4.5 month old currently at work with Kylie.

We had our 20-21 week scan this morning and all is well with Dawson Jnr . We were told that its a good time to measure head, stomach, legs, arms, toes, bladder, nose hairs and reaction to Barbara Streisand however all of these were made severely difficult by its bloody hyperactivity!

Kylie had a decaf coffee at around 8am and the scan was at 8.30 so the tiny amount of 'giddy-up' in there must have been like catnip cos the little tyke was bouncing around like Tigger in there. Like chasing a bar of soap around an empty bath, the radiologist was poking, rubbing and twisting away to try and get the shots she needed.

She eventually gave up trying to get the spinal images and Kylie had to go for a walk to try and settle everything down. After a few minutes and a well earned pee(!), DJ came off his/her 30min bender and we finished up.

Got the usual take home happy-snaps to goo-goo and ga-ga over but all in all everything is where it should be which is fab. The gut and head diameters are a larger than usual so DJ's taking after his father already. Eeeeeeep!

Peas out

Puddle Of Mudd?? You sad fcuker.
Congrats on the embryo. Of course, it's not Dawson Junior, it's Junior Junior. Well, it is in my little world.
Hope Kylie's coping OK. I know you're both gonna be great parents. Kylie because she is down to earth, sensible, and very mature - you because you're a big kid with a technology fixation. :-)

Why does it say Kylie Jones on top of the scan?
