Baby in wrong position for 12 week scan

Had my 12 week scan today and despite much jumping around eating sugary snacks and 4 different attempts by the sonography my baby refused to get into the right position for the scan so they couldn’t do the NT testing. Has anyone else had this issue?

Yes!! This happened to me, after about an hour of going in and out and trying to do different things they finally got into the right position haha xx

Ha me - little pea would not stop moving when they did finally get in to position. Couldn’t even be measured 😂
They booked us in for a second scan 4 weeks later so about 16 weeks - hopefully they will be still then!!

What is NT testing

Exact thing happened to me last night baby looked like was stood up I went back today although baby wasn’t perfectly laid as a ‘normal’ scan she got the pics and managed to do all the testing. Try not to worry just think you’ll get to see baby again very soon x

This happened to me, no NT measurement so I have to have the quad blood test before 20 weeks which will only screen trisomy 21 and not rewards/patau which really worried me but the screening office reassured me that any of the latter would have visible signs on the 20 week scan x

I have a feeling like I might get attacked from this but I’m going to say it anyways. incognito 🥸 GLP1s being mainstream for regular people who are NOT diabetic or morbidly obese is bad for so many reasons 💉💉💉

Side affects, long term dependency, supply shortages and costs, regaining the weight back as soon as you get off them.. all that ASIDE how do people not see just from a zoomed out perspective how crazy it is. I can’t imagine being someone facing food insecurity in an underdeveloped country and watching westerners give themselves daily jabs so they can lose weight while still eating a calorie surplus/ crappy foods. It’s giving hunger games when district 12 Katniss finds out at the party at the capital that people eat and then take a pill to make themselves sick so they can 🤮 and eat some more. These ads running ozempic everywhere are disgusting, and then getting amazing athletes like Serena Williams to push them talking bout “i’ve never been healthier” girl you were an OLYMPIC athlete wym??

Oh boy 😯

Happy 31st to me lol yikes 😬

Dull aches

Hello I am a FTM 37+5 weeks I had some slight pink discharge on my pad on Friday evening since then I have had a dull ache in the bottom of my tummy that just isn’t going away and dull back ache could this be the start of labour? I have the midwife Tuesday but I was just wondering if anyone else had experienced this? X

Baby is nearly here and still haven’t decided on a name…
Please help!

Here are our options

Evelyn
Summer - baby will not be born in this season ( does it matter though? It’s a name not a time stamp)
Halle
Clodagh ( Irish Cloda)

Would love to hear what your favourite name is out of those
