Trying to decide whether to go for another private scan……

Hi all! I’m currently 24w pregnant and am being seen by MFM once a month due to GD and pre-diabetes. My tech today was extremely rough. I’m a little overweight, so I know that it’s normal to expect some pressure. It’s also my second pregnancy, and I’ve dealt with it before, nbd. But today was something else. She imm...

Ready to hold and comfort my daughter 😭 3d ultrasound at 24 weeks 6 days 🥹

Hey mamas! I went in for my second ultrasound for my anatomy scan. The first one they weren’t able to get all the measurements and this time they said they still couldn’t get “optimal views” of certain measurements. They referred me to go to an MFM to get the last measurements they need. I was curious if anyone els...

We got the blood draw for genetic testing today. Our technician thought it might be a girl 🩷 I think I'm starting to feel kicks 🥺 She's got so much energy lol

I was thinking about booking a private scan to find out my baby’s gender I will be 15+1 weeks Saturday is it too early

Just came from my growth scan at 32+4 and baby is exactly on 50th centile weighing 4lb 12oz after being told multiple times he was measuring really big via fundal height measurements 🙈 anyone else know how much your little ones are weighing at this point?

For anyone that had an early scan & was measuring different, are you now going by what they said at the scan or LMP? (Mine was just a private clinic not like an NHS scan)

Loving these scan pics! 2 weeks till mine and I'm loosing patience 🤣

I just had my Anatomy scan (when i was 20 weeks) at an Center and they said baby looks good and the next scan will be probably much later in 30 weeks or so. Now i got a call from my OB saying they booked an appointment in the center again. And i will be (almost 25 weeks) did you had around that time also another sca...

So, I was told this is a girl but it looks like a boy to me. I know the labia can be swollen but that much? What do you think?? Ps: it was at 16+4.

Ive had so many different predictions and prediction changes since the scan. (13 weeks today❤️)

Desperate to find out the gender of our 2nd baby! We already have a girl 💕 I was 14 + 3 in this scan 😊

I had a scan around 24 weeks pregnant (around 2 weeks ago) and was told my baby was on the 46th centile. is that meaning she’s a normal weight or is she underweight or overweight?

What was your baby weighing at 28 weeks? Had my growth scan today and baby was measuring about 2 pounds 9 ounces. The midwife seemed happy enough with the weight just want some reassurance 😊

I’m 10 weeks today and still waiting for details of my scan. Should I be concerned? I had my booking appointment with my midwife on Wednesday 26th so thought I’d have got my appointment by now.

With my first I never had a 4d scan as my pregnancy was cut short but this time round I’m really considering a 4d scan. Has anyone had one at 27/28weeks and wouldn’t mind sharing the images so I can hurry up and make my mind up if I’m going to have one as I’m 27 weeks next week🙃

Had my scan today as “graduated” from our IVF clinic. All is going well and super happy. Now just to hope pregnancy continues 🙏

I got a letter in the post saying I have a scan booked for 30 weeks. But when I saw my midwife at the 28 week appointment, she said I was low risk and everything looked fine and on track with baby. Should I be worried why this scan has been booked? With no explanation.

I’m going for my first private scan tomorrow. Based on my last period I will be 8 +2. When do you plan on telling your close family, especially parents?
