Those images are stunning!! I have seen some of those images but this is quite detailed!

I think she looks pretty smile.gif and intelligent too.
Thanks for sharing Emily.

Wishing you all the best, looking forward to EDL laugh.gif

Very nice, Emily biggrin.gif And here's to your and your baby's continued good health.

Of course, you should realize that us spoiled UMSFers expect your OB/GYN to set up an automatic mechanism to post the raw images online in JPEG format as soon as they are available, don't you? tongue.gif

And I can report that I am beginning to acquire a spherical shape due, of course, to self-gravity acting upon my increasing mass! As for the baby, I can report that she is very pointy. And active.

In that case, we'll have to calculate your Love number (no pun intended) as well as go after your 12th degree or higher global gravity field solutions, determination of principal axes, bulk density, etc., thereby placing constraints on your internal structures. tongue.gif

Assuming a sufficient number of images is available, there are also some people here who love using images to make texture maps and shape models/triangle meshes that can then be used as input to 3D rendering programs. To do this photometric parameters usually have to be determined biggrin.gif.

Very impressive images.

Emily, you note that the girl is still on the small side. Could be worse. My newborn nephew weighed in at 10.5 lbs. at birth ohmy.gif

You realize that by meeting two different criteria -- assuming a spherical shape due to self-gravitation and orbiting around the Sun but not orbiting another body -- you qualify under Alan Stern's definition of a planet.

I'm looking forward to seeing Steve Albers' map of planet Lakdawalla... assuming he can put together a shape model onto which he can project topographic and albedo features.

Once again, good luck and happy life, Emily!

Next time ask the dr to take two 3d images a few cm apart and someone here can turn them into an anaglyph!

Emily, congratulations! Those 3-d ultrasound images are amazing!

We didn't have that back in '89, though the technician was nice enough to tells us to bring a vhs tape ahead of the appointment, we got several minutes of ultrasound showing our twins...still the most priceless tape I own. I remember just watching it over and over the day we got it (my wife was 4 months along at the time and we didn't know we were going to have twins until that ultrasound).

Best wishes to you and your husband and new memeber.

Should it be now -40 counting for 'Elizabeth'?

-41, technically, though I'm constantly being reminded that she'll arrive when she's ready, which could be early or late... I hope she doesn't take too long smile.gif

Emily:

How will we define 'arrival' - or will we have to ask Doug?

By one definition, arrival is formally and LOUDLY announced by a flurry of Squalls.

Do you mean that the pictures we've already seen came from MGS ?

I wonder if we should start a pool on who will arrive first: Elizabeth or Oppy at Vicky... biggrin.gif
