Dating Scan letter?

Hi guys! I had my first midwife appointment on Thursday. A lot of people said they’d book my scan there and then but they didn’t. She said I’d get a letter in the post. Does anyone know when I can expect the letter? I’m 11 weeks today & desperate to know when my scan will be 😩 thanks! ❤️

My letter took about a week and a half to arrive.

My midwives have an online app I found out about it two days after the appointment via the app but the letter took about a week after that to come

Mine took a bout 2 weeks

I don’t have my appointment till I’m 13 weeks and I’m 12 tomorrow

I was told I'd get a letter too, which I did after about 3 days, but it also appeared on the app they use in my area, a day later x

I don’t have an app unfortunately! A lot of people I spoke to said it was all on an app but I do live in a small town so it seems like everything is still all paper for me xx

I got a text telling me to go on an online portal to see my digital letter. Came about a week after booking appointment

My appointment showed in badger notes the day after. And a letter followed a few days later

Yeah I don't think everywhere uses the apps, with my last pregnancy it was paper based too. Part of me misses the old school books x

My letter took 3 weeks to arrive and I have my scan at 12w 5d, so don’t stress xx

I’ve ended up booking a private one because I’m just so stressed about it! I hate not knowing what’s going on it’s one of the things I’m finding most difficult. Booked it for 12+3 so I can relax now 😌 xx

I had my booking appointment on Friday and scan appointment came through the post this morning. Won't be long. Hopefully Monday 🤞🏻x

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

i really want another baby

i am merely a few months pp but i want another baby, but i am scared of the age gap (2 under 2) and also with everything going on in the world i just think its not the best idea at the moment but i am having crazy baby fever and miss having a newborn🥹

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Has anyone ever had pain in the bone at the bottom of the lady area?

How I can only describe it is I feel like I have a fracture or the bone is broken right at the bottom of my vagina bone obviously don’t think it’s to the extent but that’s how it feels. I had it in my last pregnancy and the pain went few months postpartum now it’s back again with this pregnancy. These are the results that u e googled I think I may have the first one has anyone every had this or something similar

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

Homebirth?

I am thinking I want a homebirth (second baby) for a few different reasons but my husband is very against it, he is worried about things going wrong and we are a 30 minute drive from the hospital. Has anyone been in a similar position and what did you end up doing? Any advice? 🙏
