I’m considering refusing growth scans

Just wondering if anyone is in a similar situation. I’ve been told I have low Papp-a and I’ve been offered growth scans. My first baby came at 38+4 and weighed 6lbs, not classed as low weight.

But told me they didn’t see anything. Could it be too early to see anything? I was advised to come back in 2 weeks. My a...

Is it still too early?

I have my 20 week scan next Tuesday but have started to buy some bits for the nursery and some clothes already. I’m now feeling quite anxious that I’m tempting fate getting this stuff too early! Have you started buying things too or are you waiting until later?

Growth Scan

I’m wondering if anyone else has had the same as me and can put my mind at rest.. I’m 31+6 and my baby is measuring at 35 on the 95th centile… they’re saying he weighs 5lb 2 at nearly 32W … but they don’t seem to be bothered about it, should I be worried? Has anyone else had this?

Scan

Has anyone not had a scan at all yet? I am 10+4 and my nhs 12 week scan isn’t until 13TH Feb, and I haven’t booked an early private one either. I’m absolutely PETRIFIED I’m going to go and something will be wrong. I just can’t shake the feeling of worrying it’s soooo frustrating, anyone else in the same boat?

Not baby related, sorry. Just looking for others experiences..

Hi guys, I wondered if anyone has had a LLETS biopsy before, and if so, how long it took for your bleeding to stop? I had one done about 2.5 weeks ago. Unfortunately I got an infection from it too. Thankfully antibiotics has cleared up the infection, however I'm still getting bleeding (fresh bleeding, like from th...
