Am I the only one unimpressed?

So I had my 20 week anomaly scan the other day and the scan lady seemed like she was just rushing thru my scan which seriously was making me feel so uneasy as my first child has congenital heart disease so I was really looking forward to this scan to ensure that there was no problems this time round. Due to baby’s position she couldn’t even tell me the gender or the condition of the heart or face. This leading to another anomaly scan which is in 3 weeks RIDICULOUS. I was the one who had to bring up the idea of going on a walk to change baby’s position but she turned around and said that unfortunately they only have a limited amount of time on each patient. I’m so beyond pissed off and left unsatisfied (as this could also happen in the second anomaly scan, so what are they going to do then) I still haven’t even bloody found out what position my placenta is !!!!!! I feel like I’m left feeling not knowing anything as with my first child I knew where my placenta was I knew what was going on with my first child throughout every step of the way. She asked me to flip over twice or three times, it’s just so flipping irritating!!! Idk what to do!!! I want to complain but who to?

Oh no, this is so disheartening, especially with what you have been through with your first! Unfortunately we felt the same way at our 20 week scan, it was so rushed, she didn’t talk to us at all and at the end my partner turn round and said bye to her and she just went “oh yeah bye” we came out so confused with what had just happened that we ended up speaking to our midwife after it. We’ve been for ones at Burnley the last few weeks which have been really good, might be best to speak to your midwife and see if you can go in for another there instead?

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 😃

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!

Almost 37 weeks + told to do another growth scan

I just had my second to last doctor’s appointment this morning, and my OB told me she wants me to do another growth scan because my belly is measuring small. She says it’s probably just because I’m a smaller woman, but they like to be safe. It’s hard to hear though, since I just did one a couple months ago.

I did this with my firstborn around this time of pregnancy, so I do think I just carry smaller (even though I don’t feel like I look “small” at all). My first baby was 6lbs 15oz when she was born at 41 weeks + 2 days. I’m having this baby at 39 weeks on April 7. I hope she’s still at least 6lbs.

Anyone have any stories similar to this?
