13 + 4 Perinatal Appointment

We went to the high risk doctor yesterday and to meet with the genetic counselor for my SMA risk results and to have blood drawn from dad. We also got to see baby boy who was moving around so much. Arching his back, opening his mouth, waving his arm, and stretching his legs 🄹 first time pregnant here and last time we saw him was at 8 weeks so it was a lovely surprise to see something that looks like an actual baby šŸ˜‚ They measured him at 13 + 3 but the measurement is when he had his back arched so idkkkk haha happy either way they say baby is strong and healthy, back of the neck looks good. 165 BPM šŸ«€

Next appointments aren’t until Dec. 13th with our OB and then the 26th for the anatomy scan. Can’t wait to see him again ā˜ŗļøšŸ¤

I also tested a carrier of SMA, husby tested negative so risk of baby having SMA is low. The risk is a little higher if both are carriers. Wishing you the best outcome

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 šŸ˜‚šŸ„²

Hi

Hi guys so I’m 25 weeks today and I haven’t felt the baby kick at all yet at the scans she’s moving constantly that it’s hard to get the right measurements my first pregnancy was cryptic so I just want suggestions from one worried mother

Rolling milestone at 5 months - What’s typical ?

Good morning ladies,

My daughter will be 5 months old tomorrow, but there’s still no sign of her rolling. She does tummy time and loves lying on her mat, playing with hanging toys above her and to the sides, but she only lifts her legs and doesn’t seem interested in rolling or moving sideways yet.

Anyone else the same or have your babies already learnt how to roll yet ?

Thank you
