Who does the baby look like: Mummy Versus Daddy

1. Eyes: It's very obvious - she's got her daddy's eyes! Especially the hidden double eyelids!

2. Hair: It's also very obvious - she's got my hair! Dark, thick and slightly wavy.

3. Nose: Some says looks like mine, some says like her daddy's. I do agree her nostrils are like mine, but not sure about the shape though.

4. Lips: Most agreed she got my lips!

5. Ears: Probably one of the uncles/ aunts/ grandparents - we don't have her kind of earlobes!

6. Fingers/ Toes: Her daddy's - longish.

7. Legs: Her calves are like mine, not sure about the thighs though.

8. Skin tone: In between me and my hubby I believe - not as tanned as me, not as fair as her daddy.

Overall? 80% looks like me ;)

hi congrats on your new baby...atinarin here, from FBO. Just wondering if you could advise me on amniocentesis as i may need to undergo it what with the muscle dystrophy my cousin has been diagnosed with. Is it very risky and for how long do u need to be on medical leave after that?

Hi dearie,

if you refer to my november archives, you will see the whole list of postings almost exclusively on the "ordeal".

Basically it's really ok, provided your obgyn is a good one. I would really say the one done by my obgyn is relatively painless, just that although you may not really feel any after effects, you MUST rest as much as possible in bed. I was given 3 days MC since I had the procedure on a wednesday so I had 5 days to rest at home (including the weekend).

I've also linked an article on the risk of miscarriage from amniocentesis, so you may wish to read it up for your own reference.

Hang in there!
