Mummy MOT

Has anyone in the UK done a ‘Mummy MOT’? If so was it worth it? I’m not suffering with anything in particular, 3 weeks post emergency section scar healing well, still feeling very tender in the tummy area.

I did as I wanted to check my ab separation.

was it useful for you?

Yeah I think so, she told me what exercises to do to help with the separation and taught me about scar massage too x

oh nice, scar massage is something I’d like to do as soon as I can. Would be good to have someone show you how! Thank you!

No worries x

I had all those checks today at my 8 weeks check with the GP

I’ve not been offered anything!?

My GP didn't do anything like that. They just checked my incision and checked over my baby x

the MOT thing is a paid for thing, but the 6/8 week check should be with your GP!

Thanks I’ve had to reach out to them and seeing them at week 7!

Small head reported following 20 week scan

Has anyone else had it flagged that their baby is in the bottom 5th percentile for head size?

They said everything was fine whilst we were in the scan and then I got a phone call the next day saying that it’s on the small side and we’re being referred to a paediatric specialist at St George’s. Has anyone else had this and how did things go??

Would you bring 9 week old to a family party of 35+ people?

These are also people who will want to pass the baby around and get a turn to hold him. He just got his 2 month shots two days ago

Scan needed at 33 weeks

Hi ladies! I just had a midwife appointment (I am 33+5)..the midwife was different to my usual midwife. She's requested I have a scan within 72 hours as she said baby is measuring a little small, however, she did say that it's likely nothing to worry about and it's probably just her measuring me a bit different to my usual midwife. Has anyone else had this? Am a bit worried although babys heartbeat and movements are completely fine.

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 😂🥲
