An update on "Cleet the Feet"

It's week 13 and we're diving head first into our second trimester. We have our fingers crossed that Mommy's nausea and fatigue will come to an end. Everyone says that the second trimester is a breeze so we have high hopes.

Sidenote, Chrissi received a clean bill of health from her doctor and found that even though she is a twin, the chances of her actually having twins of her own is really only 1 in 250. Cletus has had 3 ultrasounds and the doctors seem to find only 1 sac so we are confident that Cleet will not have a shadow.

Rather odd tidbits you may find interesting.
  • Cletus has started to form fingerprints
  • He is now in the same weight class as a medium sized shrimp, and
  • While he is still looking quite alien-like, his head is really only 1/3 the size of his body
  • Cleet moved around alot during his last ultrasound. At times it appeared that he was standing on his head.
  • Mom predicts that she has a future Cirque du Soleil artist on her hands.
** We still don't have confirmation on the baby's sex but Aunty Ali has her doubts about the "leg" depicted in the ultrasound pic below. If you ask Mommy to guess ... she still thinks that Cleet is all-boy.
