I went to the OB today for a "nuchal translucency screening" to test for Down's syndrome and some other chromosomal abnormalities as well as major congenital heart problems. They basically did an ultrasound, took some measurements and then took some blood. We should have the results in a week, but everything looked great. The baby's heartbeat was 172 beats per minute (nice and strong)! If you look carefully at the pictures you can see that he/she is sucking their thumb :-)
