He did use the phrase "I'm not God" a number of times, which I found interesting, when I asked him what his best guess was. But I pressed him on explaining what these "soft markers" were, and he said that the other 11 markers looked good. Things like hand/feet development, tibia length, ear and nose development, something to do with the heart, etc. The ultrasound was almost an hour long, so it appeared to be rather thorough.
