Sneek Peek at 20 weeks!

Ultan fell asleep on my lap last week and I instantly recognized the pose.  If we were to be handed a copy of a picture of Ultan at our 20 week scan, this is what it would look like (the consultant in Queen Mary refused to give me a picture from Ultan's 20 scan (still haven't forgiven her!) and we never got to see it clearly enough again to get a picture)






Looking at the picture you can see that Ultan's right nostril is collapsed which gave us the knowledge that Ultan had a complete unilateral cleft lip.  For those who are reading and have been diagnosed, Ultan's cleft was 8mm wide which would be considered a moderate cleft.

If you have read the blog, you will be aware that Ultan did not really show his face much and we spent most of the scans following his 20 week scan looking at this!
