Boy or girl?🤍

Feel like I’m in limbo.

I’ve had my 12 week scan and everything was fine in fact baby was measured a week ahead. But now I feel like I’m in limbo again as symptoms are hit and miss, which I know is normal, but it feels like a long time until the next scan and with no symptoms I’ve kind of got no reassurance that it’s all still going ok. An...

Girl?!

Is this definitely a girl? The sonographer seemed pretty confident but I’m not really sure what I’m looking for 😅

Gestational sac at 6 weeks so I

Should I be worried if they can’t see the embryo yet at 6 weeks. They said it could happen. I can’t help but think the worst and have an empty sac. How common is this?

20 week scan

Hi all I just had my 20 weeks scan and quite upset as she rushed me as she was running late. Baby wasn’t cooperating either. They checked all the organs but not the sex. Had to pay £5 for pictures and got the same side profile pic zoomed 5 times. Did everyone go through the same? Or should I request for another scan...

Girl or boy?💙🩷

Scan was at 13+1 - currently 16+1 🩷💙 Sent this to the nub they who said they were 80% sure our baby is a girl but that the nub isn’t very visable so they went more off of the location of the bladder etc.. What do you guys think?🥰👶🏽

Baby scan weight

Have people found the guess of baby’s weight at scans correct? I am 34 weeks and my scans are suggesting my baby is currently just under 6lbs so is likely to be around 8lbs 5oz at due date. My first child was 6lbs 9oz born at 40 +4 so this feels like a big change in baby weight. Also feeling nervous about giving b...

Anterior placenta

I had a scan on Monday and the doctor said I have an anterior placenta. Which means the placenta is on the front wall of my uterus. I’m really stressed about this because I’m afraid my one year old will bounce on my belly and cause an abruption. Anyone have experience with this?
