Measuring behind on scan😭

Hey ladies, just wondering if anyone has had this as I’m kind of stressed about it. I ovulated on 31st July and I’m pretty certain of that between ovulation tests, BBT tracking and ovulation pain, which all lined up to the same day. I got my first faint positive on 10th August (10 DPO). So I think that makes me 6+3 today, but baby measured 5+4 today. They reassured me that it’s no big deal but I’m worrying that measuring behind means something isn’t right? With my son he always measured right on track so this is new to me 🄺

Hi yes I thought I was 6 weeks and 4 days but measuring closer to 5 weeks it’s all depends on your cycle and when ovulation happened and all of that. Nothing to worry about at all

I measured 5w2d when I was actually 6w2d (I had to go for an early NHS scan due to minor spotting.) But i had a private 8 week scan yesterday and baby has caught up and is fully on track and normal size now ā˜ŗļø it happens!

Its all estimated before your 12 week scan as everything is so little 🄰 every time iv gone my dates have changed and im pretty certain on all my dates ect. But last week i went in i was 5weeks 5days and then this week i was 6weeks 1 day so it makes no sense logically but evrrything is so so small as they are measuring in mm so it can be hard to get it all correct ā¤ļø i wouldnt worry too much as you might find at your 12 week scan your about where you thought you were 🄰 dosent mean anything is wrong so try not to panic my lovely xxxx

IUD REMOVAL

We are TTC baby #2 and I had my IUD removed in late July. I am in my TWW. Has anyone gotten pregnant their first cycle after IUD removal?

AMA: Reintroducing myself (formerly Fairymother)

I have been fairly active in this community since I was pregnant with my firstborn, it's been about 4 years now. I'm most known as "Fairymother". I haven't disappeared (I just started being active on the app again last month), but I have began making changes to my life that I always wanted. I am not in a position to reintroduce myself IRL, I've been trying to keep these changes more private than before, but it can be lonely and isolating. My solution is to reintroduce myself to this community, where I've come so often to confide in (I also learned some didn't know where I've gone or what's been happening with me or that this profile is me).

I am pursuing a medical transition (female to male). There is not much community for trans men who are/were moms. I am not a "seahorse dad", I chose not to pursue transitioning until after I gave birth to my children, I can not really relate to that experience. Some users may not agree with my identity (it isn't up for debate, to be clear) but I hope everyone can understand that I do still have children- that I carried, birthed, & breastfed- and would like to continue using this platform for parenting and support reasons. There will be times that my identity is relevant to a poll I may post, I cannot always separate who I am from the issue I'm seeking advice for, and so I ask that you please respond to future posts with my children's best interest in mind and not use it as an opportunity to comment on my transition.

Motherhood is different for everyone, my journey is obviously very different than most of yours, but we all want what's best for our children and for the world to be a better place for them to grow up in. I hope to still be welcomed here while being fully out as myself. Thank you to everyone who has been friendly to me over the years and checked on me, I deeply appreciate all of you.

Anyone is welcomed to ask me anything (although I might be selective with which comments I answer). I'll likely link this post as a reply to any future curious comments about my transition just so it can stay all in one place and not take over any future comment sections on unrelated posts. Thanks again if you took the time to read all of this & take care 🩷
