I had one 8 weeks pregnant and they kept me in for a week. I’m now 33 weeks and have been doing injections twice a day in my stomach and will have to continue up to 6 weeks postpartum too

Sorry to hear that did u have the scans I refused because radiation. So straight on blood thinners I had covid just before and had jabs think that’s what’s caused it xx

I had both x ray and CT scan. There was also another scan called VQ I think but that one posed more risk to baby in childhood. They informed me of the risks for both scans and I opted for CT but the only way to know for definite if it was a clot was to do it so I went ahead and turned out I had it. This isn’t my first time having a PE either, I had one 6 years ago which they put down to the contraceptive I was on at the time

So scary but I don’t want the scans so just taking the blood the blood thinners very breathless with it x

It’s very scary but easily treatable and they’ll keep a close eye on you but it’s understandable why you don’t want the scan. You’re on blood thinners which is safer than not being on it x

Hi all , I had PE at 8 weeks , it was the worst experience ever , I opted for the VQ scan as risks were minimal and yes I’m also on blood thinners twice a day and I hate them ! I used have them in my thighs and that hurt and now I’m having them in my tummy and I feel like I’m running out of places to inject ! Has everyone/anyone had injections all the way through the pregnancy ?

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
