8 weeks Ultrasound

Every ultrasound makes this pregnancy feel a little more real. 💕 Watching our little baby grow from a tiny little bean into a baby with little arms, legs, and a beating heart has been the most amazing experience.

These pictures already mean the world to us, and I can’t stop looking at them. I never knew I could love someone I’ve never even met this much.

Baby, we can’t wait to meet you. ❤️ February can’t come soon enough!

🤍 Due February 2027

2nd section

My first I had a planned section it was great. My 2nd planned section is next week.

Question - did anyone go earlier 2nd time round? Was it a scary experience?

I’m worried go early. I’ve been told I would still get my section but treated as emergency section but I’m just really worried and anxious about that happening.

7 week scan

Hi,
Has anybody had a 7 week scan for reassurance and did you hear a heart beat / would you recommend it? I don’t feel like I can wait another 3 weeks until my first midwife appointment!

Would you go to the doctor?

I'm 26 weeks pregnant. Last Thursday, whilst lifting up my daughter, I felt a ping in the middle of my stomach. It didn't really hurt, but it was noticeable. Ever since then, when I lift even light things, or when I walk/stand up I feel a light pain in the area. It is also very sensitive. It's not really overly painful, it really is just a slight niggle. I didn't have anything similar with my first pregnancy. Should I go to the doctor?

Baby is Born!

I am graduating from this group and moving to July babies.
Baby was born yesterday Jul 18th at 311pm. We were 36 + 6 days. I had a 2 1/2 hr unmedicated labor from start to finish at a birth center. We are home and settled.

Happy to answer any questions!

Early Scan?

I’m trying to decide on whether or not to book an early scan, it’s my first pregnancy and will be 5wks tomorrow. I’ve had some mild cramping and coloured discharge, according to NHS it’s all normal. I have quite severe anxiety as it is, and this is making me spiral slightly. I’m trying to reassure myself but I don’t know if booking an early scan will help?

How soon after losing your mucus plug did labour start/baby born?

I’m starting to get lots of symptoms/indications that labour is getting closer. But how soon after losing your mucus plug did labour start and then when was your baby born?

I lost my plug yesterday and feeling crampy and more emotional today…
