lil bit worried

hi, i had my 20 week anatomy scan friday, and they said the baby's head is measuring small and that I need to see a specialist. a scan has been arranged this Wednesday, they said theyd like me to be seen sooner rather than later, so have to travel to a different city, for a fetal medicine ultrasound scan. has anyone had this before? I feel slightly worried tbh!

Driving after c-section (UK)

Just wondering what others have done/doing? Feel stuck 🙄

I’m almost 4weeks PP. Insurance says as long as doc says I’m medically fit I don’t need to tell them. And DVLA say they don’t need to know as long as recovery isn’t over 3month.

Doc says they don’t know what do to… they asked me to ring DVLA & insurance to ask what they need lol. God sake haha.

Anyone choosing c-section for personal reasons, how was the process with NHS?

Long story short I am terrified of vaginal labour and birth and always knew I was going to opt in for planned c-section. I have no medical reasons, just personal anxiety. I have been referred to speak to a midwife about birthing options - how should I approach this meeting? I have heard NHS likes to push back heavily on this if you do not have medical reasons, however I know it is MY choice to make. Wondering what attitude I should bring to this meeting.

MMRV

Have any of your August babies had this yet? How were they after, particularly in the following weeks?

Private scans🤰🏼

Did anyone else pay for more than 1 private scan🫣 I’ve just had my first which showed the heartbeat and really would like to get another in 2 weeks as I know the growth is massive in that time and looks way more like a baby! (First baby)
We will be obviously getting the 12 and 20 week on the NHS and then a private gender scan at 15 weeks.
