I’m 22 weeks pregnant and I’ve just got home from my second ‘20 week scan’. It will be marked as incomplete because, due to baby’s position, they couldn’t see the right side of the heart. All other checks were completely normal.
I won’t be offered another scan or be referred to foetal medicine. Has this happened to anyone else?
I really wanted some closure but I’m also pleased that everything they did see was fine.

My 20 week scan they couldn't get babys heart or diaphragm so they rearranged for me to go back a week later. My sonographer said they can only detect a few heart conditions by doing scans most are diagnosed after birth

Sounds like it's all okay, but if you're spooked there are lots of places that can do scans privately too. They're not mad expensive. Usually around £70-£100 .
Anyone else suffering with insomnia tonight? Im 37 weeks and slept from maybe 10pm till about 1.30. Ive now watched 2 films had a shower and decided to make a cup of tea 😂

Can you recommend what people have done that seemed to work to try to induce labour naturally?
Been eating dates, drinking raspberry leaf tea, using my ball, curb walking (when it wasn't torrential rain)

Ladies, this is for you all. With previous emergency c section, I gave vaginal birth today 🙏🏻❤️ Though they used forceps since baby was going up again and again. Still I’m glad I did it 🙌🏻 and you can do too.
Let me know if there’s anything anyone wants to ask 😊

Has anyone had their second babies fast, and how did it go/ how is it going?
My little one who is my first is only 11 weeks old and my partner really begs to have another one quickly so they are similar in age. Not like next week but within the next year!
