Oh wow! We’re they sure today it’s definitely a girl, would think it’s harder to get wrong this way round. Boy to a Girl?
How do you feel? xx

On the scan there was 3 lines which indicate girl, I’ve booked a private scan to confirm it.. I am stressed because I have 10 weeks now to sell all the clothes I had for a boy and buy all new for a girl🤣 x

I’m worried about this happening other way round been told it’s a maybe girl and got all the bits and pieces and got a scan in 15th scared they gonna say it’s a boy. Lol

This happen to a friend a few weeks ago she was told it was a boy and at 32 weeks found out it’s a girl. She got almost everything as she is booked in for a c section at 37 weeks. I was shocked as she did an early scan as well.

Yes! We went for a private gender scan at 16 weeks, got told it was a boy. Went to the NHS scan and he told me it was a girl, then changed his mind to a boy… we then had a 4D scan and they confirmed it was a boy!

I hope they tell me I’m having a boy as I got a 4D scan booked, I got everything for a boy 🤣

Pregnant with baby 2

Hi everyone! I gave birth via emergency c section 9 months ago as my baby boy was measuring big, he pooped inside so there was risk of him inhaling it and I wasn’t progressing past 3cm to have a natural birth and now I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby. I’m having a consultation on Tuesday to talk about birth options and to have any questions answered but I don’t know what to ask. I feel like it would be safer having a c section again but at the same time I don’t want a c section. Does anyone have any question ideas I could ask or any advice/stories of similar situations. Tia

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??

Planned c section

Has anyone had a planned c section and been home the same day?

Getting pregnant after c section

When did you get pregnant again after a c section? Our plan was always to have 2 under 2 but that is now out the window because I had an emergency section. I know they say 18 months and we will be sticking to it (as much as I don’t want to) but I’m curious how quickly you got pregnant after your section?

Movements

I’m 28 weeks tomorrow. Yesterday I had loads and loads of movements but today I have only felt small flutters and a couple of kicks throughout the day. I get so confused as some people say they don’t have a pattern but others say they do. We have a Doppler so used it this evening and could hear the heartbeat and then moving but does anyone else get quieter days of movement than others? I am seeing my midwife tomorrow so will check but just find myself getting anxious about it and don’t know when to get checked. I know they encourage it but last time as soon as I got to triage baby started moving loads!

Leaving baby for date night

How old was your baby the first time you left them for a night alone with your partner or friends? How long did you leave them for and who did you leave them with?
