4D Scans

Hey,
So we’re wanting to have a 4D scan done, but our baby decides to face the wrong way normally on our ultrasounds, so just wanting opinions whether it would be worth paying for?

Most will give you a rescan for free if baby isn’t cooperating 😊 100% worth doing as the pictures are amazing!

she never seems to cooperate when it comes to scans 😂 but I’d be travelling for the scan too as there’s nowhere near me that has any appointments for weeks yet!

I love how clear that is! How far along are you? I’ve had people telling me to drink lucozade before a scan to help? X

My baby never cooperates on scans but we got some great pics on our 4D. 10 mins before I had an ice cold bottle of water, a can of Coke and some fizzy sweets and baby was moving all over the place 😂 x

I’m gonna give this a try, I was obsessed with fizzy sweets at the start of my pregnancy so hopefully she lets me eat them 😂 x

My baby doesn't normally co operate on scans either but we went for a 4d scan on sat & the first time she had her hand in front of her face I also have an anterior placenta so makes it more difficult. I was sent for a walk & to get something sugary & when I went back she had moved. They do tell you to drink a bottle of coke before so try that also eat something sugary x

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

Planned c section

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

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??

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?

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?
