You’ll be fine 🥰
It could take longer than expected if you’ve opted in for the screening as they need baby in an optimum position to measure the fluid behind their skull. Yesterday I had to do a lot of wiggling about 😂

I just had mine this morning! Be prepared to have to be there a while and get sent to walk around and come back as baby has to be in the right position and mine was not playing ball today😅 it’s nothing to worry about tho the whole process is quite calming tbh!🥰

I had mine last week and I had to wriggle about quite a bit to get the baby in the right position! One thing I did ask for was a cervical length scan, they use the same machine and just measure the length .. and thank god they did because my cervix is far too short meaning I need a stitch! That’s one thing i would advise to ask for x

All went well thanks for the reassurance girls!! How long did it take for the results to come back for the screening?

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 😂🥲

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

Random one!

My 5 month old has only ever had tears from one eye the other has never had a single tear, it doesn't look red gunky or anything just never had a tear?
Is this anything to worry about ? I did ask the doctor while she was younger but it's still going on!
