<p>[QUOTE="Aquitaine, post: 239142, member: 602"]Hi [USER=98]@Calico[/USER], ....I took the liberty of fixing the baby's eyes so you can get a better comparison....personally....my jury is still out on postmortem or not, BUT, that being said, the hands are darker AND do have a bit of mottling on them....so I may be leaning towards postmortem. The very first image of the girl with the cat....to me looks like a girl who has a disability....from her positioning, head tilt and short looking neck.....now I could also be waaaay off base!!! Here's you baby's image....the owner may also have wanted to give the baby some "focus" in the image......postmortem or not!!!! (I did NOT try to 'put eyes in'.....just removed the pin pricks!!!) EDIT: I forgot to mention....in doing the edit....it DOES appear that the baby's eyes were OPEN.....FWIW......</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]72883[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
