Has anyone else had their 35 week appointment yet? I had a super short cervical check today (like 10 seconds), doesn’t hurt at all, but MAN about 10-15 mins later I started having some serious cramp/contraction type feelings, and even tonight some intenseeeee lightning crotch and some cramping. I know this is supe...

Hi!! I was curious who all got a doppler? I am realizing throughout this pregnancy I'm far more paranoid than I already thought it was 😭 Is the doppler reassuring or does it scare you more? :(

Ladies any of you at Kings college hospital And do you know if you're allowed to bring toddlers to scans also are they allowed in the room with you ? UK BASED ANSWERS PLEASE Thank you

I’ve booked a scan for tomorrow I’ll be 8 weeks 6 days has anyone had a scan at a similar time and have any photos on what to expect ? I’m really nervous

Hi all! We are expecting baby #3 and this will be our first born in FL. In IA- we usually have 8weeks appointment and then 12 week ultrasound. Wondering if this is how all hospitals are in this area? I was fine with it but then I was doing a nurses call at 8weeks and they said “we won’t see you till 12 weeks or la...

I had my midwife appointment today (I’m 36+4) & my stomach was measuring just over my normal range so I got booked in for a scan half an hour later, they said his belly is measuring big and estimated to weigh 7lb 9 already! I have a glucose test booked for tomorrow and then another scan when I’m 38+4. Basically I ju...

My son went to the pediatrician yesterday and when they measured his height and head circumference and translated that to his percentiles, it seemed very wrong... (My baby is huge compared to other kids his age, and it was saying he was 11th percentile flr height and 2nd percentile for head circumference) So my husb...

So ladies I've had my 12 week scan but was told to return to do my booking appointment to which they then said they would ring me on Monday because they were backlogged. Rang today as I still had heard nothing and they said they are really busy and couldn't give me a time or day still. Still haven't got my notes eit...

Can someone please recommend a place for scan in Birmingham. Thanks

Seeing everyone’s scans is making me so jealous!!! Mine isn’t for another 2 weeks!!!!!!!!

Hiya! I’m due a US Doppler uterine artery scan next week and just wondering if you get to see baby during this one? Or if it’s just for the sonographers to check blood flow and what not on their own personal screen? Thanks!☺️

Hey girls 👋 I hope you’re all doing well! Has anyone been sent for a growth scan and all has been well, or what was the outcome? I remember having a couple of growth scans in my previous pregnancy and everything was fine; she was just in a different position. I know measuring bumps with tape is very dated and…

According to my early scan, I’m 12 weeks exactly today, got my scan on Thursday and I am sooooo excited!! Jealous of all the mammas who have already had theirs 🤣

Went for my first NHS scan today, pushed forward a week so I’m actually 13 weeks, baby is due 4th August and my son will be 15 months…send help haha 😂 any guesses on gender? Second photo in comment

I’m really intrigued as to what gender everyone thinks baby is? This is from my 12 week scan. I was 13 + 2. My family all have our own guesses from the pic and just my pregnancy in general and it’s so varied! ❤️

Had a scan 2 weeks ago, but it was all so tiny, so had a scan again today which confirmed heartbeats for both babies, non identical twins. Although due date is September I’ll very very likely have early August babies.

Had my 28 week appointment today - anyone been referred for a growth scan?

Is a 5d scan worth it over a 4d scan?

Anything going for a private 8/9 week scan. What did you see? How was it x

Morning ladies, just wondering how long does the 12 week appointment take in the Ulster Hospital? Just to know what to expect. Thanks
