scan for hip dysplasia

hi everyone, i have a scan next week for my little girl who is nearly 14months to check to see if she has hip dysplasia. started to feel quite anxious about it now, has anyone else had a baby that got diagnosed with at that age? my daughter is super active so im very worried about her having to be in casts if she does have hip dysplasia😩 how did everyone else get on with the casts? any tips?

thankyou xx

Red line on nose

My baby woke up from his first nap of the day with this red vertical line on his nose (and a little bit below it). He is 11 months old.

Any idea what this is? Should I be concerned?

He slept in his cot, which is empty, and I am not aware of him hitting his nose in his sleep.

TIA Xx

Growth scan - concerned 36weeks

My baby has gone from 4lb 2oz to 6lb 15oz, I have been told I have to see a consultant within the next week about this. The babies tummy is measuring big at 94%.

Has anyone else had this? I’m slightly worried due to how big the babies tummy is compared to the rest of the baby.

Early Stages of Labour 😬

I’ve been having contractions on and off since yesterday evening! Feel like im in a limbo phase of seeing how long this could go on for!

Just wondering how long people were contracting before their waters broke or contractions got really painful and close together?

Gifts for kids parties

Following on from a different post I’ve seen on here.

When invited to a child party do you get the birthday person a gift?

Settle this😅

After previous polls it’s been narrowed down to Elsie vs Everly.
Appreciate everyone’s feedback. We were going to use the middle name Kate but decided on Rose to fit other daughter’s floral middle name. And what nicknames would you use for each name? All we could think of was El/ellie or Ev/Evy (short e sound)

Induction - small baby

I am 38 weeks + 2 days now and since my baby is on the 7th centile, the consultant recommended getting induced at 39 weeks. Any similar induction experiences? How are things for induction specially at Kingston Hospital?
