Couldn't agree more, we have just had a 4d ultrasound of our new baby and we saw her yawn, suck her thumb and poke her tongue out... they must be a bit behind there in the UK

Kiwikev is correct, babies have been yawning in the womb for millennia. We've been seeing it since ultrasound has been available, the last 5 yrs its been easier to see with the 4D ultrasound, and regularly seen by parents, plus lots of other normal behaviour like opening eyes, poking tongue out, thumb sucking, nose scratching etc. Maybe the Brits will cotton on to these other "discoveries" also soon. Maybe it's an indication of the levels of ultrasound in NZ where we try to do it well . Richard Davis radiologist.
