Sonographer couldn't guess the gender at 18 weeks!
So I went for a gender scan today at exactly 18 weeks pregnant. The baby was soo active, it wouldn't sit still at all. So it made it very difficult and awkward to guess it's gender. It looked like a GIRL at first when we looked between the legs, as it was flat. But then on a side view, we could see something cropping up from the hips above the legs. So it looked like a BOY! The sonographer said she was unable to tell, so we rebooked the scan in 2 weeks. Is this normal? Has anyone else had instances where they couldn't find the gender? ...
Also I've added pictures of my baby scans from 8 week (Top), 12 weeks (Middle) and the 18 weeks (Bottom) scans for you to please guess if you can identify what you think it'll be? I'm sooo curious!

Ramzi and skull suggest boy , however nub is most accurate and I'm not seeing one here

Slow leak waters?
Possibly felt a small trickle of extra liquid after using the toilet last night around 3am, when I wiped it it looked clear not yellow on the toilet paper. Put a pad in but don't l think I've felt anything since, it's now 9am, although the pad is maybe ever so slightly damp feeling. Can't tell if I'm just imagining things tbh 😩
Would you go in to get checked?

Diagnosed with gestational diabetes! Still trying to process the news
I thought I was healthy…normal BMI, walk loads, move all the time (I have a toddler 😂) and even cut out all sugar a month ago to be even healthier and still this came for me! I passed the fasting test but was one point over on the 2 hour past glucose drink. Apparently just one point over and they still take it super seriously. I haaaaaate needles and am really struggling with the whole pricking my finger 4x per day and all the worrying medical info they have given me…anyone else?

Spotting
Hello all! I’m around 9 weeks pregnant.
We recently had some brown discharge about 2 weeks ago. All cleared up and was fine. However now we are having light pink spotting. No pain, a little cramping like a period is wanting to come. I don’t have my first scan till 29th October so I’m a little in the unknown! My midwife said that there’s nothing they can do about it 🤷♀️
Has anyone experienced the same? Or in a previous pregnancy and all was fine?

Advice/ Reassurance
Hey Guys! I’m 36 weeks and had my growth scan yesterday. Consultant advised that baby is transverse. Have to go back for presentation scan at 37 weeks and if no change, will have be admitted to hospital until a planned C-Section as they don’t want to risk natural labour. Anyone else been through something similar?
Thanks!

First private scan!
Hey, I’m going to be 8weeks and 5 days when I go for my private scan - will they do an abdominal or vaginal scan at that point? Also any experiences with Little Start 4D for scans?
