I had a 6 week scan today! I’m still nervous, I had two losses before this. They couldn’t get a heartbeat but she did see the flicker and took a video of it and showed it to us. It probably just began beating. This is looking more promising than my last loss. I’m still so worried, I can’t help it. Anyone here have a...

Today Was my 28 week check up. This the first time I was able to see my son face at all . Still kinda hard to see due to my placenta placement but I saw a little . Im not gonna lie, I'm a little curious on why my baby nose looking so big & if these picture placements just a mini outlook not actually the way he will ...

I just recieved a letter for an Obstretics appointment, this is my second baby and I never had this kind of appointment with my first. Just wondering before I’m able to ask my midwife, does anyone know what sort of thing it would likely be for?

Hey all! I’m 38+1 and had my midwife check up today. Was a different person to usual and she said I’m measuring at 42 weeks and booked me in for a scan on Monday. So far baby has measuring well on track and I can’t believe he’s overgrown by 4 weeks since my last appointment 2 weeks ago. I’m freaking out a little a...

We was referred by the doctor that did my 6 week checkup as his feet are a little bent when placed flat. I Hurd nothing so presumed everything was ok. I got a call yesterday saying they have a new head nurse who’s read his file and has. Triaged him to be seen asap on the 27th of December. I’m a little worried now.

For the 10 week scan everyone was saying boy. What do we think now at 12+5 ??

Hi ladies, is anyone’s baby measuring in the higher percentile? I am a little confused by my recent scan. I am 28 weeks and she’s coming in at the 83rd percentile. I have been told she has long legs which we expected as we are tall, but her abdomen is on the bigger side which I believe is not good. I’ve tested nega...

I went for my 28 week midwife appointment today and when she was feeling for baby she thinks I have extra amniotic fluid. Baby and bump are normal size for the number of weeks I am. Been booked for an extra scan this Friday to have a look. Has anyone else been told this and how did it go? A little worried x

When does the placenta form I’m 10 weeks and they saw baby and heartbeat but said placenta is not there yet still my yolk sac

Had another growth scan yesterday and they think she’s around 5lbs 4oz. How accurate is this and do they gain around half a lbs a week until birth from now?

How much did ur baby weight show? Mine was 333g.. wondering if baby is underweight or not

This pregnancy is completely different from my first. My first I didn't throw up or lose weight. And my concern is that she isn't going to be measuring properly for my ultrasound on the 27th. I'll be a little over 21 weeks then. I lost almost 20 in a little over a month and I have only gained 5 pounds of that back. ...

So, I’m currently 33 plus 5 with my first baby. Baby is due the 31st Jan. At my last midwife appointment I was sent for a growth scan, as he’d dropped from the 97the centile to the 57th. The scan went fine, and he was measuring on the 97th centile after all. I’ve had my 34 week midwife appointment today, and curren...

I have my 12 week scan tomorrow and just wondering what to expect. I know I have to have a full bladder but is there anything else anyone would recommend doing? I’m assuming my partner can come with me in the room? How much are scan photos and is there a limit on how many you can get?

My scan from 12+4 just wondering if anyone has any gender ideas, having a gender reveal once I’ve had gender scan but I can’t help but wonder if im having another boy or girl 😅 got 2 girls and 1 boy for context

Has anyone been told or had experience in a previous pregnancy of measuring big on the bump measurement? Were you sent for a growth scan?

I’m pregnant with my second but I’m really struggling with the appointments they are giving me as I already have a son and it’s so hard getting childcare plus I work 😩 I understand why he can’t come to my ultrasound scans (I have to have more because of medication I take) so I’ve got 5 scans in the next 5 months…

I have my 12 week scan today, do I need to have a full bladder for this one? I have a 2 year old and can't remember a thing from pregnancy already 😂🙈

I have my scan next week to find out so thought it would be fun

Cause I was having contractions and I was only 17 weeks and 3 days. Well they wound up telling me they were just Braxton hicks and everything looked good. THANK THE GOOD LORD!! But when they were doing the ultrasound they said WHOA THATS DEFINITELY A BOY! Lmao 🤣 my boy is blessed hahaha! They also said he was…
