13 week scan

My baby was born two weeks over her due date weighing 9.7lbs. She didn’t lose any weight after birth then got weighed at 4 weeks and is now a massive 12lbs. Midwife has told me this is ok however this is the same person who told me my baby was a regular size throughout my pregnancy but turned out to be a 95th percen...

I seen someone do this so now I’m doing it :)

Hi all, 28 weeks pregnant and just wondering when should I pack the hospital bag? X

Due date was 3rd March but our beautiful Jessica was born on 19th February (38+2) weighing 7lbs3oz ❤️

Did you guys get your cervix checked on this appointment? I have booked a double app as I am discussing my labour/delivery plans but just wondering if I get my cervix checked too as baby is feeling so low down and so much pressure

Just saw others do this! Looks fun!

Alright mamas I’m going in for an overnight induction tomorrow. I had my hospital bag packed for going into spontaneous labor, is there anything I need to/should add to my bag since it’s an induction now?

I’m 8 weeks 5 days with my second and just wondering if anyone else has days where they feel like they’ve been hit by a truck and are so nauseated and then the next day wake up with minimal nausea and feeling better.

Those who have had a section or know about the healing process, I had a section on 10/2 and one side looks like a scar with some small scabs but the other side is bright pink/ red. It’s been like this for about a week.. would I need to do anything about this?

I’m currently 32+4 weeks pregnant and suffering with I think trapped wind. It’s agonising pain that gets worse with movement and touching my stomach, mainly at the top of my stomach. Has anyone experienced this and has any advice please?

Please tell me other people are feeling baby at like the front of their vagina😂 like she’s reallyyyyy low down and I don’t remember this in my first pregnancy but feels like she could just come out any minute

*Posting Anonymously because I don’t want the girl to see* I’m helping plan a baby shower for my friend & I need some cake inspiration!! Please help a stuck bestfriend😩✨🫶🏼

Anybody else seeing floaters after 34 weeks?

when i had my 28 week growth scan, i was told that baby is measuring quite small and was only on the 5th centile. i’ve been referred to have a fmc scan with a consultant which i have this week, has anyone had one of these before and if so what should i expect?

I’ll be in SD for my babymoon at 34 weeks and want to be prepared just in case. I don’t have any risk factors for preterm labor and my midwife said I’m fine to travel. I’m planning for an unmedicated birth, however, I assume if I do go into labor at 34 weeks I’ll need some sort of medical intervention. Any hospital ...

I need a rant🤣🤦🏻‍♀️ My baby dad decided he won’t see our 6 year old daughter unless she calls him to ask to see him🙄 She’s 6 years old?! It’s been a week and he hasn’t seen or really spoke to her because she hasn’t called him and asked him if she can see him🤦🏻‍♀️

How are you ladies sleeping? Side sleeping is really not good for me s my hips hurt and I toss and turn all night (I have multiple pillows!! Nothing works). Anyone else sleep propped up on their backs? X

My baby boys name begins with A and want a baby girl name that also begins with A. No ‘Ad’ names like Ayda or Ada because that’s my sis in laws name I don’t want my daughter having similar name. Thanks girls

Hi, I feel like a saw a sign that said you don’t need a full bladder for your 20week anomaly scan at the royal hospital. Now I’m starting to doubt myself. Can anyone advise if you need need a full bladder?
