32 weeks scan.

Had my 32 weeks scan, they say baby measuring big. 90 percentile. 4.85lbs. has anyone else had this are they concerned. Also if anyone has any other babies has this ended with a big baby. I know they’re not accurate but the consultant has made me feel rubbish about it

20 weeks measuring small

Hey mamas, I went to my 20 week anatomy scan and my baby is healthy & all her anatomy looks great. The only thing is they told me she’s measuring at 18 weeks. Has this happened to any of you before? If so, what caused it and did your baby catch up in size? They tell me it could be multiple things but since i’m early...

4D scan likeness

Hey girls! Please help me convince my boyfriend to get a 4D scan and show photos of the 4D and when they arrived to see it resembled them? I would be so grateful. 🙏🏼 He’s convinced it’s all a waste of time and every 4D looks exactly the same. I’ve booked one for this Sunday but he’s refusing to come 😔.

Early scan

Just had a scan thinking I was 6 weeks but more on the 5 week side so have to go back in a weeks time. I left feeling really deflated. They could see the sack and what they think is the embryo. Hopefully my next scan will be positive

20 Week Scan 🩷🩵

Hi all, we’ve got our 20 week scan at RBH next Wednesday and I’m just wondering if they’ll tell us the gender (or write it down)? I’ve heard that some hospitals won’t do it out of fear of getting it wrong and people have had to go private.

dating scan

I went to what I thought was my dating scan today, thinking I was 12 weeks, but I found out I’m actually 9–10 weeks. I have PCOS so my LMP isn’t really reliable 🫤 They didn’t give me a due date yet. Does that mean I’ll need another dating scan, or the next appointment is going to be the 20-week scan? I really…

Anyone else had varying dates on scans?

I had a private scan at around 7 weeks and was measuring a day behind. Had an NHS scan at around 9 weeks and was measuring 3 days behind. The sonographer wasn’t concerned and said to just wait for the dating scan to confirm but now I’m overthinking it and worried babies growth has slowed down? Has anyone else had th...

12 week scan

Anyone ever had this? I went to my 12 week appointment two weeks ago, the sonographer was really abrupt and after 5 minutes of trying “I can’t get correct measurements, you have an introverted uterus. You’ll have to come back in a week” well it’s now been two, I am almost 14 weeks. Just rang the hospital and they sa...
