Had my 20 week scan this morning. Baby was happy and seemingly healthy so I was feeling good and very excited. Just as we were preparing to leave the sonographer gave us a but. He had been unable to find a particular part of baby’s brain so has referred us to see a specialist. He said 1 in 10 have this and you would...
I am a FTM, currently 32 weeks pregnant. Had a growth scan today and baby is measuring small with a large head circumference in the 90 percentile, and Femur only in the 10 percentile. I’ve been googling - which I really shouldn’t have and now I’m losing my mind!! Is anyone else in this situation or has anyone been t...
Is anybody else’s Badger notes useless? Hardly any of my appointments data/results are ever uploaded. My growth chart isn’t updated, most of my apps don’t have anything against them like BP, fundal height etc. Absolutely useless, how are we meant to keep an eye on things/ provide information if it’s asked for.
Hey girls! I was wondering how different the dating of the pregnancy can be between private and NHS? Did your dates change significantly when you went to your NHS scan vs an early private one?
Went for a midwife appointment today and baby has dropped off from 97th percentile to 55th to less than the 10th percentile now so they are sending me for a growth scan. Feeling concerned as I have had protein and now ketones in my urine? From reading it could be diabetes which they haven’t tested me for? Then it c...
I had my 12 week scan on valentine's day. Was measured at 14w 2days. A whole week more than what my tracking apps and first midwife appointment had me at. I don't really understand the nub theory. Are we saying girl or boy?
Anyone know how/ if I can get my Matb1 after having my baby? I never got it at the hospital. Thanks in advance!
Anyone else? Even if the scan I had today is out by like 15% she’s still pretty chunky by estimation 😂
I’m just over 9 weeks. After having pain and bleeding yesterday it was a huge relief at my private scan today, watching this little rascal both waving at the camera and trying to kick me😂 6th pregnancy and never made it this far. Keep growing my little pea🤞🏼🌈
Hey! I’ve got a private scan on Saturday and I’ll be 10w 3d and was wondering if anyone has any scans from around this time to know what we might see! Thanks
Just come back from my first scan, measuring at 12w3d, due on 29th August. Any due date twins? Any guesses on a gender? 🩷🩵
this pregnancy since losing one just before to miscarriage i’ve been obsessing and anxious, i have had 5 scans already and im only 13 weeks, i keep feeling like somethings going to take my happiness away? two were for a hospital complication, and one a dating scan at hospital but the rest ive booked out of pure anxi...
I have an upcoming appointment and I haven’t gotten a cervical check yet and I am a FTM. Has anyone gotten it at 37/38 weeks yet? I’m curious to know your experiences🙂 Happy Birth Month/ Almost Birth Month mommies✨✨
Finally had my 12 week scan today measuring at 13+1 🥰 will be having a private gender scan but interested to hear guesses! I already have a little girl who desperately wants a sister but I have a gut feeling it's a boy 😅
Hi does anyone else use MyChart? This is my first time. They have my name wrong. They used my maiden name and not my married name which needs to be corrected in order for insurance billing and referral since I’m on my husband’s tricare. And they got my due date wrong! It’s supposed to be May 31st not May 3rd. I have...
My midwife gave me a referral for a dating scan. When I went to book online I saw it costs over $300!? Is this correct? Is it subsidized in new zealand?
