10 week appointment

Hi :) first time mum here :
I’m currently 8 weeks pregnant and have an appointment with a midwife soon at 10 weeks which I was told would involve blood tests. I wasn’t sure if this would include a scan or would I have to wait until 12 weeks?
Thanks :)

The 10 weeks appointment is just with the midwife and is a booking appointment. Can take up to an hour and it goes through your medical history, previous pregnancies, hereditary conditions, take bloods and urine samples, explain what you should expect and what happens next.

Your dating scan will be booked after and should be between 11 and 13+6 weeks

Maybe a April baby not a May one

So I'm not due till May 10th but with how my body has been feeling the last couple days I reckon I'll definitely not make it to my due date or even to May before I have my baby 😅 the intense pressure I've had has been insane I can't walk more then 5 mins without being in pain, slowly started loosing my mucus plug yesterday and then today I feel like my body is having a clear out 😬 i genuinely feel like my body is preparing 😅(I hope so)
I have a growth scan next week but my consultant said on my last appointment (2 weeks ago) that I might not make it to my next scan 😅 like sorry hun I think you know something I don't 😂

Growth scan scaring me thinking I’m gonna have a massive baby 👶🏼

So I had a growth scan at 27 weeks and baby was plotting on 50th centile. Had another growth scan today at 32 weeks and they’ve said he weighs around 4lb 10 😳 they haven’t reported and plotted on my chart yet but that sounds like a lot when I still have 8 weeks left 🙈🤣

Odd feeling!

Hi all. 18+3 here with first baby 🩷. Today I’ve had some odd sensations. It’s in a similar area period pains would be, but it’s not a cramp- it’s very quick. It almost feels like a ‘swoop’ rather than a cramp or pain 🤔. Has anyone had this? Should I be concerned? As I say, it’s not happening constantly, and it’s maybe a second or less at a time, no pattern. Very quick and just feels like swoop feeling from the inside with a mild uncomfy feeling but not really painful?

first baby and I’m clueless. Thankyou!

Car accident

I had a minor car accident this morning. I’ve been having my usual pelvic pain but been getting mild cramping but have felt her move since. Do I need to get checked or shall I monitor as I am out at the moment as my daughter is at a club and don’t want to make a fuss of nothing but also don’t want to risk anything
Don’t even have my notes on me and nowhere near my usual hospital

Baby weight

Has anyone had a growth scan and been told a predicted weight and it’s actually been accurate? Interested to know what all your babies were predicted and what they actually weighed😊

31 weeks appt - bump measurement

Hi! Just had my 31 week appt and my bump is measuring above the 97th percentile. Has anyone had this and then had a baby of average size? We have a growth scan next week.
