My first midwife appointment is December 4th and I’m hoping she’ll put me in for an ultrasound asap!

I have my dating scan next week!! I’m so excited to see baby. A little disappointed that I scheduled my first doctors appointment so my fiancé could be there just to realize that the ultrasound is a whole different appointment and he works away and won’t get to be there.. will we get to see baby at the doctors appointment too?

Yup, I'm excited for my first ultrasound next week. I will be around 9 weeks. Are you doing any kind of exercise at home? I miss my workout routine, but I'm not sure if I should do or wait for my first appointment 😕

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 😂🥲

Induction?

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

Baby names

My daughter‘s name is valentýna and I’m struggling to find other nice girl and boy names beginning with V I’ve got a few and I’ve got loads that aren’t beginning with V, but I feel like I wanna go for all vs and I also love girl and boys names that match so because my daughter’s name is valentýna I would love to call my son Valentino my husband does not agree 😃
