I didn’t a clear blue test and it says 2-3 but I know it can not be accurate but from my last period I’d be 4-5 when do I book for an early scan? (I’m going to book private) I don’t want to book and it be too early and not see anything, any advice? 🤰🏻❤️

So this morning I have been for my 36 week growth scan and consultant appointment (currently 36+1) so I thought like always I would give you an update. Baby girl is head down and engaged. She has gone from the 15.7th centile to the 30th centile. Her EFW is 2892g (6.376lb). Blood flow from the placenta is good with n...

Please look at the absolute joke of a scan photo they gave me at my 20 week scan. I’ve compared to my daughters at 20 weeks where you can see the full baby. What is this? I actually think it’s really rude

I have a growth scan today as when I saw the midwife on Friday she said I was measuring small (was 28cm at 28w but only 31cm at 33w) and baby had dropped a centile on the chart. How long can I expect to be at the hospital? Is it like the 20w one where it can take ages to get all the measurements, or now they're bigg...

Anyone had an early scan before the 12 week scan? I’m thinking of having one what are people’s thoughts? 💕

Hi all, I’m currently 24 weeks pregnant and I haven’t heard my babies heartbeat- is this normal or is this something I need to ask for?

Hey everyone, I am really panicking at the moment - it was my 28th appointment and the fundal height is 25cm (apparently it was the same at 25th week) - doctor has asked for a growth scan but i am super anxious. Has anyone faced this issue and can help me with it. Also if there are any suggestions on how to increase...

Trying to get pregnant again after my recent miscarriage is making me super worried and anxious. Normally my doctor gets me in for an appointment around 8-10 weeks and an ultrasound around 12. My last pregnancy I had a missed miscarriage and didn’t find out until my first routine scan. Do doctors get you in earlier ...

I was able to do a transvaginal ultrasound this morning. 6w 3d. I was so nervous because the lady doing the ultrasound was quiet at first but then she told me she could see a heartbeat, followed by my doctor saying that everything looks good. So much relief! But also I know there is much further to go! I will have ...

How long does it take to get the screening blood results back? I had them at my midwife appointment on the 25th April and still haven’t heard anything x

Hello, how long does a growth scan usually last, what do they tell you there and then and also do you need a full bladder? Thank you❤️

Just went for my 20 week ( 22 now) week scan and I completely forgot to ask for my Mat B1 certificate!! Now my next scan isn’t until 36 weeks?! Can I ask at my next midwife appointment ( this isn’t until 28 weeks though) or how/who can I ask?

Hi All, I got my coil removed 3rd March, bled for 5 days from 7th March. Went for an early scan on the 30th April, empty gestational sac, no yolk or fetal pole. Booked back in for 14th. MSD of sac was 11mm. Could this be too early to see anything? And my ovulation date was late? It's completely occupying my mind ...

Has anyone been for a growth scan and been told the fluid is low? I was asked if I had been loosing fluid but haven't!

I am currently 11 weeks and my doctor’s office can’t get me in for an ultrasound until June 11th and I’ll be 16 almost 17 weeks then, I’m concerned if that’s late. I want to make sure my baby is developing properly and I know I should be getting one around this time. I had an ultrasound at 6 weeks but none since. Sh...

Hi everyone, so I have a mammogram scheduled this week and I’m wondering if I can bring my 18 month old son with me or if I’ll need to get someone to watch him. Let me know what you think based on your experience getting a mammogram. Thanks!
