Isn't it possible that Laci did not know she was pregnant for a month or so, that she could have had a menstrual period? I know nothing about ultra sound techniques used today but I do know fetuses (children of any age) grow in rather quick spurts.

I'm a psychologist, not a physician but I used to be a nurse (many years ago!) They will attempt to determine the age of the fetus via the ultrasounds (the earlier one is usually most accurate, as I recall) and by x-raying the bones. They'll come up with an age range. Sounds like we may have a battle of the experts on this point.
