The Wait for Ultrasound⏳️😩

How does everyone cope w having to wait a while before the first ultrasound??

I have like 0 idea on how baby's doing or anything other than tracking my levels weekly and having symptoms 🤢. First ultrasound is in March and feel like times going slow and need reassurance everything's good. 😩

I completely understand! I’ve booked a private scan for 8 weeks at the start of March and idk how I’m going cope, the wait is agonising 😩

We’ve got a private scan booked as my anxieties simply cannot wait 😫❤️

yeah ive also booked a private scan for the beginning of march as i cant wait, im so anxious

I’ve booked a scan for 6 weeks as I can’t wait so long x

@Lauren the anxiety is killin me . I just been tryna keep myself busy w more positive thoughts but sooo hard. I wanna see my lil bean. I wanna hear the heartbeat. I wanna know if boy.or.girl. the anticipation ugh

its so difficult, i just want to know everything is okay. ive heard that sometimes at 6 weeks you cant hear the heart beat thats why ive decided to wait a bit longer. i think that’d really worry me

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

Exercise 6 weeks after c section

What movement did people start to introduce? I won’t do anything too vigorous until I’ve seen the pelvic physio as I don’t want to compromise anything that may have been extremely weakened through pregnancy! But just wondering what types of classes/movement people started off with?

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 😂🥲
