Talk about rocking the cradle.

This actual sonogram photo comes from Jeff and Susan Snow, both members of the Lake Worth Americana act Invisible Music and subjects of Courtney Hambright's story about three simultaneously pregnant women associated with the band in this week's print edition of New Times Broward Palm Beach.

The Snows assert that there's no Photoshopping or trickery going on in the shot of their son, who is due any day now. And this is definitely more convincing than the so-called "Dancing Ultrasound Baby," "Baby's First Dance," or even "Amazing Dancing Baby in the Womb!" Take that, mommy blogs.

Although the Snows are considering the name Harrison, we'd prefer something a little less presidential and more reverential for the music of this young man's future. Aside from the obvious ones (Ronnie James, Bon, Lemmy), the horrible ones (Geddy, Dimebag, Pirate), and the boring ones (James, Dave, Tom), what's a really hardcore name for this little tyke? Update: Or maybe this baby is already a University of Texas Longhorns fan. The comments field is wide open.

Baby boy gives two-finger salute to the world... from inside the WOMB

If Owen Skeffington grows up to show a lack of respect for authority, his parents can hardly complain that he didn't warn them.

A scan taken at 27 weeks clearly shows the infant raising two fingers to the camera.

Such was the hilarity at Royal Preston Hospital that the sonographer asked permission of his parents, Owen senior and Kelly, to put the picture on the wall.

The couple, from Ashton, Preston, who also have three-year-old twins girls, Niamh and Erin, said they couldn't decide whether baby Owen was being rude to them or simply showing how many sisters he has.

His father Owen, 34, joked: 'Luckily, he didn't come out sticking two fingers up!'

Owen's comical antics caused great hilarity at the hospital. The sonographer carrying out the scan even asked for the couple's permission to reproduce the image and put it on the wall for other patients to see.

Kelly has since given birth to Owen at Royal Preson Hospital.

According to popular legend, the rude V-sign was a gesture of defiance first used by English and Welsh archers during the 100 Years War against France.

The French apparently threatened to cut off the arrow-shooting fingers of the longbow men, so the archers would wave these two fingers to show they could still shoot.

1-Year-Old Girl Carrying Parasitic Twin

A 1-year-old girl from China is waiting to have an operation after doctors discovered she was carrying her parasitic twin.

Kang Mengru left doctors baffled after her belly became enlarged, The Sun reported.

They carried out a CT scan to discover the cause of the growth and found a fetus inside her. They believe it is her parasitic twin.

While the condition is very rare, Dr. Manny Alvarez, managing editor of health at FOXNews.com, said it is possible that's what this child is "carrying."

"There are multiple varieties of parasitic twins," said Alvarez. "In some cases you could have some sort of merging body parts... like an extra leg or sometimes you have an abnormal formation of the head when you have two brains."

In this instance, Alvarez said from looking at a picture of the girl, you can clearly see that it’s a large abdominal mass that could potentially be an embryonic remnant of a lost twin.

"This could be a type of parasitic twin called fetus-in-fetu," he said. "What you find is that you have an encapsulated tumor-like formation inside the body, which contains fetal parts."

Mengru is now waiting for an operation to have the fetus removed, according to the report.
