Dear Bunny,
As of tomorrow, you will be 12 weeks old! What a milestone! I'm so proud of you for getting this far. You have your momma's tenacity. ^^
Daddy and I saw you on the sonogram on Wednesday, and boy were you active! I never knew there was such a thing as in utero gymnastics. At one point you did a complete flip, and made everybody laugh! You were waving your arms and kicking your legs something fierce. Daddy says you're a boy, and I tend to agree with him based on your heart rate (it's at about 157, down from 167 two weeks ago), but I guess we won't know for certain until we see you again in six and a half weeks. It sounds like a long time to wait, but maybe the doctor might let us see you again in the interim.
By the way, thank you for not making Momma sick any longer...that was definitely no fun. I'll continue to indulge your cravings - I know you want a corned beef and sauerkraut Reuben sandwich right now - but go easy on Momma, okay? I don't want to turn into a balloon sooner than I have to.
Fortunately your nuchal translucency measurement (skin fold on back of neck to observe as a marker of Down's Syndrome) was 1.4mm, which is normal. But man, just look at those chompers!
That's one impressive set of teef.
And we got to see your little face pointed right toward us, which was a little freaky because you look like a monkey right now:
But I'm sure by the time we see you again at 18 weeks or so, you'll look completely normal. Just be sure not to hide your naughty bits then!
Much love,
Momma.
:)

(And I'm totally BSing, because regardless of whether it's a boy or girl, we'll be bringing it up to ignore gender stereotypes. If Bunny's a boy he'll be taught to cook and clean, and if it's a girl she'll be brought up to be a hardcore science freak. :D)
