Impatient about ultrasound

Currently wishing I could see my baby again. My first ultrasound was at 8 weeks and my Obgyn didn’t schedule another one til 20 weeks 🥲. She was so tiny at 8 weeks and I get jealous seeing ultrasounds done at 12 weeks or later because it actually looks like a baby

Go to a ultrasound boutique, I have tons of ultrasounds from 4weeks to before birth each of my kids have baby books full of just ultrasounds 3d ones too

I second Hanna - I went to one because my doctor doesn’t offer any between 12 and 20. They’re around $150 depending where you live but so worth it.

A nurse at my OB said to talk to the NP I'm going to since they are making me high risk about getting more ultrasounds.

I found a private ultrasound place for $50 around me, worth checking out!

I definitely feel this my first ultrasound I was 7weeks and I don’t get another till 20weeks.. really sucks cause they think I’m high risk and already had two miscarriages so I’m constantly worried something is going to happen

I 100% feel this. And there isn’t a private ultrasound place near me. It’s like 3 hours away

My last ultrasound was 6.5 weeks! My doctor keeps saying I don’t need a picture and only does Doppler for the heart rate. I’m going to a private ultrasound boutique tomorrow! I’m 15 weeks and I’ll be able to get 4D, 5D, and video imaging. It’s not cheap but I’m ready to see my child!

Oh my God, oh my God I hope this is not true!!!! I’m kind of scared

I’ve been throwing up and taking a shit all night!!! I just hope that it’s not what I think it is

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 😂🥲
