Hi everyone, Just looking for reassurance really. We just had our 20 week scan yesterday, and the sonographer told us she is pretty sure our baby has a club foot.

Anyone else out there have 2 placentas?? 🤯🤯 Was told some women just grow an extra one, 2nd isn't attached to baby. Main one is on the back wall and the 2nd doing nothing is on the front wall just blocking me from feeling most my baby's movements. Main placenta is low lying as well so need extra scabs to see if it…
Would I be able to get a second opinion on my 20 week scan as I feel like the hospital that performed the first one did not do a thorough enough job? If so how do I go about it

Hi everyone, I was told at my 20 week scan that my placenta is fully covering my cervix. They didn't tell me much else other that it can move up as the uterus stretches. I've been booked for another scan at 32 weeks to check. Has anyone else had this before with past pregnancies? Does it really move?
I'm feeling so deflated I've just been for my private scan and they've put me back to 6 weeks. They could see the sac but no embryo yet 😢 I don't know what to think now 😢
Well I guess this is goodbye for now. I misscarried last night. I have a final scan on Monday to be sure but I know I’m already sure. Thank you for the support ladies but see you again soon x
So I’m having a private scan this morning and I’ve felt excited up until this morning and now I’m so nervous! I’m 16+6 and this is a gender reveal but one where they write it down as we don’t want to know until we have our party and learn with all our family and friends what’s we are having! The nerves are because o...

Hello, my baby was measuring two weeks ahead at over 2200g or 5lbs and I'm really starting to get nervous. What were other people's babys weighing and what was said about that x
I’ve had some bleeding last night and a bit today. Only dark brown blood. I went for a scan this morning and they said I’m measuring 6 weeks 1 day and there is no heartbeat.
