Any theories? 🥰 Had my 12w scan today!

I can’t believe I’ve made it this far! After a miscarriage around 6 weeks and an ectopic pregnancy in the past, I just had my first ever positive scan 😭😭 I can’t quite believe it and it doesn’t feel real! But it was clear to see a little baby with a little pulsing heart beat❤️ also been told I’m 7+3, 3 days ahead…

I have anxiety and I’m newly pregnant I got all my screening done etc and just wondering are you contacted if any of the stid flag up In your bloods? It’s been a few weeks and not heard anything

Hi guys x I had my 20 week scan and everything was in the normal range, however they said that the diameter of her head (the BPD) was a little smaller than average, measuring at 42.9 mm. Her head circumference (HC) is in the normal range though. She was also lying in an awkward position so I don’t know if that could...

Has anyone else been told their little one is in the third percentile Had a scan 2/3 weeks ago as my little man was measuring in the 10th percentile at 29 weeks and yesterday I had an extra scan and his dropped to 3.7 % I’m a little all over the place and am worried his percentile has dropped he started at 50% wh...

Had my 20w scan a few days ago but I was 21w+4, how much did your little ones weigh? Mine was 405g. Xx

Sorry another one here after my 12week scan, what do we think? Boy or girl? I think one picture looks like a girl and then the other looks like a boy? 🩷💙

My baby has dropped in percentile every growth scan. Started at 56% to 14% to 5.6% and now 2.9% at 34+4. My doc isn’t too worried cuz dad and I are small people and he’s still healthy but seeing a 1% abdomen measurement is so scary. Does anyone have positive birth stories with percentile readings this low?

Baby is measuring right on track from our last ultrasound. 💗 They did discover I have two small hematomas, has anyone else had them? They’re doing another scan in a week to see if they shrink or not.

Found out today at my 36w scan that baby is head down, but is sunny side up. Has anyone delivered a sunny side up baby & what was your experience? Or anyone else get this news recently? Doc said it would be fine but could result in a harder/longer labor 🫠

Can anyone take a guess at the gender from my scan?

Hi all Im 20 weeks and I’ve had 3 scans the past 3 weeks (inc a private gender one) My 20 week scan my baby is sooo deep in pelvis they cant measure the head. Thing is all of my previous scans had the baby in the exact same position head essentially down in my pelvis on my bladder (seriously causing me to go to lo...

Hi. I have low PAPP-A and have been told to expect a small baby. I'm 22 weeks pregnant and still fitting into all my normal clothes. I'm so self conscious about the size of my bump being small (doesn't help when people comment on it!) and anxious about the growth of my baby. Everything looked fine at the 20 week sca...

Hello, ive got my 12 week scan next week and the letter says it's £15 for a picture? Is that correct? And is it just one picture? Thank you

When is the best time to book a 4D scan? I’m currently 27 +4 weeks 🥰

Baby has been head down for a lot of my appointments now and even at a triage visit last night she was head down. Today when I went for a scan they said she is now breach ! What can I / should I be doing to help her go back to head down as I was so chuffed she was and now slightly anxious she’s breach ! Thanks...

Just wondering out of interest if anyone had a growth scan around 32 weeks what was babies estimated weight? I had one yesterday at 31+6, was told baby is overall like 30th percentile but estimated weight is 3lb 15oz (which google says is bang on for 32 weeks so not sure how that makes baby 30th percentile 😂 but…

I’m 11 weeks pregnant, and I’ve had a text with an ‘obstetrics appointment’ at the hospital for when I’ll be 14 weeks pregnant. No further info. I am midwife and consultant led due to twins so my only guess is a consultants appointment? But I’ve had no indication as to when or how often I’d be seeing a consultant. I...
