My anatomy scan showed a mass on my baby's lung. Went to have another anatomy scan with a specialist. The specialist confirmed the first result. I have to go back in 6 weeks to see if it is continuing to grow and if it is its own growth or attached to the lung itself. If it's growing or attached my baby will have to...

I had my baby girl (stillborn) in November at 34 weeks. I found out last week that I'm pregnant which is what we wanted.

Hi all, I have my first OB visit coming up soon and am a bag of nerves. I was told that this visit usually includes a full physical exam and might include a Pap smear.

I’m 37 weeks and baby has had a growth spurt the last two scans. She is now not classified as SGA and doctors are saying it’s fine to have a natural birth if I want, as I can now go full term.
