private scans.. or even hospital.

Was anyone told the wrong gender of their baby at all ? Not from the 90’s etc (not being rude) but more recently. Thank you x

Why does my ultrasound look like this?

22 weeks 3 days, I know no one is medical professionals but do these ultrasounds look normal? Why does his face look so smooshed and his stomach look weird in the last photo? They don’t look like some other ultrasounds I’ve seen at the same week

Early scan

I have my early scan tomorrow morning. I am shitting myself, the anxiety levels are so high. I had a mmc in July and had ao many symptoms.

Pregnancy announcement/concerns

I’m only 5 weeks 4 days and haven’t had a scan yet. I was in a crafty mood so thought I would make a few pieces that I’m planning on giving to certain family members when I’m ready to tell them.

What happened at your 28 week appointment?

Had mine today and was expecting to go through loads of info as per what the nhs website says about that appointment - like birth options and caring for baby, but we didn’t talk about any of that.

Anxious

I'm feeling a bit silly but I am so anxious about getting an internal examination. I know it's all so natural but I feel a sense of embarrassment of some sort. I have a private scan scheduled where it said it may need to be done internally rather than over the tummy. And I am so anxious about it. Are you all cool ab...
