MCDA twins arrived early- 34 + 5 🫶🏼

Our boys arrived early at 34 + 5, my labour progressed really quickly. 2-3cm dilated at 0500 to reaching 9cm by 1300. Unfortunately twin 1 got himself in a pickle, so far down into my pelvis, his heart rate dropped drastically so was sent in for a cat c1 emergency c section.
Very overwhelming but both boys were out safely within 15minutes of the call being made. They are both breathing on their own and just require a feeding tube.

The doctors are super happy with them, what a quick labour/progression but our priority was the boys and my safety 😊😊

Anyone else just can’t stop staring at their twins on the first night 🥹

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 😂🥲

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

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
