It's a...

Belly!!!
And inside that belly is a baby, and
Oh, the doctor kept saying,
what a beautiful spine!
Such a beautiful spine!

And then what looked like two perfectly symmetrical Tic Tacs:
Kidneys, the doctor said.

And look at those long legs, the doctor said.
She has such long legs.
She?
Yes, it's true.
(or as true as these things can ever be until the moment of actual truth)
It's a girl!!!

Good thing I'm pumping her with enough sugar
that she'll be the sweetest girl in the world!!!

Perhaps Nietzsche said it better than I ever could or would:

What does it matter whether I am shown to be right! I am right too much!—And he who laughs best today will also laugh last.
