4D scan with anterior placenta?

Hey, I’m looking at booking a 4D scan but I have an anterior placenta and really not sure what gestation to go.

WTTW suggest between 24-27 so I’m thinking 25+3 days (purely because it’s the only date my family who will be coming can do!!) but just wondering if this would be too early or if anyone else had a 4D and could share their experiences and what gestation they went.

I don’t want to leave it later than that for the initial one just incase baby is in an awkward position and they need to book me in again as don’t want her to get too big or for the placenta to be in the way.

Any advice or experiences would be great.

I had a 15 week scan which included a 4D look at the baby (this is where I found out I had an anterior placenta). I don't believe the placenta position should have any impact on the 4D view - it certainly didn't on my scan. 😊

Is this normal?

Is this little red bit on my section scar normal? It’s not oozing anything, doesn’t hurt but it’s the only bit on my scar like it so just curious! (19 days PP)
Thank you in advance! 🥰

Help

I was getting pretty painful period cramps and during those, I had painful lower back cramps. I had these on and off for like a few hours so from about 10:30pm to 1am?

I’ve had no show, or anything like that.

Is this braxton hicks or early labour pains?

Labour??

I’ve had on/off mild period cramps since 9 last night, very irregular and very mild, but I just had one that woke me up. My waters haven’t gone and nor has my mucous plug… but could this be a sign that it’s close?! I’m 40+3 and desperate to meet her!

Fed up

Anyone else just feeling fed up in general? I just never feel happy anymore. Wake up dreading what the day ahead of us will be like.
Little one will be 6 week tomorrow

Early waters/pre term labour?

I can’t get checked until later today unfortunately. I can’t tell if I’m leaking/starting early. I definitely think I’m having braxton hicks yesterday and today.. i have some pain in my back but she is quite low down so hoping it’s just pressure, baby was a little quieter yesterday but she’s back to more normal movements today, but my underwear just seems to get so wet, especially after going to the bathroom. And I honestly can’t work out the smell, I’m pretty sure it’s just discharge/urine leaking but there’s that worry in my mind a little. Are there any other ways to know/check if it could be the start of it all?
