Cervical length

Hello! I know the NHS don’t usually do this but I had my cervical length measured today at 34 weeks and it is just under 25mm (the cut-off number). Has anyone had this ? Could it mean higher risk of pre-term labour ?

I think it’s just your cervix shortening as you get closer to labor! If it wasn’t ruled an issue at anatomy scan then I wouldn’t worry about it!

As above your cervix just shortens as you get closer to labour. I’ve had a short cervix length of 19mm since 20 weeks and was put on medication. Now 35 weeks and still very much pregnant

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!
