July 2026 babies 🇬🇧

20 week scan

Anyone else absolutely dreading their 20 week scan? With my first we got told he had ventriculomegaly which thankfully resolved on its own before he was born but it just made me so anxious the entire pregnancy with lots of tests etc and I'm so nervous something is going to be wrong again 😔 it's next Monday and I'm so anxious it's making me feel sick.

Mine is tomorrow and I feel really nervous for literally no reason! I keep saying to my husband because you go so long without seeing or hearing them (and not necessarily feeling them) it's weird

I was also really nervous for ours! It was my first pregnancy and I had twins so I was worried about complications the whole time. Just because they caught something on your other baby’s scan doesn’t mean they catch something with this baby!

I feel nervous for mine, my last baby was small all throughout. Worried about this baby, also because I’ve not really had much movement yet that is making me extra anxious x

My baby has mild ventriculomegaly on one side (it's measuring 10.6mm and supposed to be less than 10mm) so I'm looking for any and all info about what's in store 😵‍💫 reading that it can self resolve is comforting...

Maternity pads/knickers

Can anyone please help me advise what to buy for my hospital bag when it comes to maternity pads/knickers? I am very stuck! Not sure obviously whether this will end in vaginal birth or c section, but any recommendations would be very handy!

First scan :)

I had my first scan and baby is looking very healthy so far! (Measuring around 9 weeks) I do have some health problems and considered high risk so it was a big relief to know that so far everything is going okay

Leeds General Infirmary Births

Hey, has anyone got pictures of their rooms from LGI labour ward?

I'm making my birthing plan and wondering if I'll sound silly when giving my preferences for environment. For example, I've asked for a dim room with sensory lights if possible. But if its your typical white basic room I won't bother coming across as a primadonna 😅
