From Conception to Birth in 3:04

Whether you’re a GeekMom or a GeekDad just stopping by to see what the ladies are up to, you know all about pregnancy and the changes a woman’s body goes through to bring forth a little geeklet. One dad, a photographer and clearly blessed with a geek gene, chronicled his wife’s pregnancy by taking weekly shots of her every beginning in her 17th week of pregnancy and continuing until the birth of their daughter. The photos themselves are accompanied by a very cool diary-like entry about that week, but the even cooler thing? He turned those weekly photos into a stop motion video, compressing 40 weeks worth of exhausting, back-breaking gestation joy into a three-minute video that is priceless.
