Baby's First Handshake


Photo: Alicia Atkins / A Classic Pin-Up Photography

On October 9, 2011, Alicia Atkins gave birth to her daughter Nevaeh via C-section and her husband snapped this incredible photo of the baby reaching out of the womb and grabbed the doctor's finger! Link | Visit Alicia's Facebook Page for more info.


Very cool photo, but isn't it ironic that people use the word "baby" when the unborn human is loved and wanted but "fetus" when its parents still aren't sure how long they'll let it live?

This happened on an episode of House M.D. I think the baby needed surgery and they put the baby back to ripen when done. The baby grabbed Dr. House's finger. It looked real-maybe it was- and even grumpy Greg's hard shell was momentarily softened.
