First missed doctor's appointment

I missed my first doctor's appointment last week, which was a bit disappointing, particularly given the revelation that Keith (Fiona's obstetrician) made at that appointment. Fiona is 23 weeks along and Keith showed her a photograph of a baby that he delivered at 23 weeks. The kid ended up responding marvelously and was eventually valadictorian of his high school. The upshot of this revelation was that our child could live on it's own if it were born right now. Incredible.

For anyone reading this that is having a baby in Sydney, please go check out Keith Hartman. He's a good mate of Fiona's dad and has been absolutely wonderful. I can't recommend him enough.

The discount he's giving me to put this blog posting up is relatively minor. I swear.
