Had a private scan today at 13 weeks as my partner couldn’t make the 12 week scan what do we think🥹

Mine is 26th👀🤣 will be an interesting christmas and new year lol

Hey I’ve just seen a post about baby’s weight at around 28weeks, I’m guessing most people who’ve commented have regular growth scans as do I. Naturally I’m anxious but now I’m wondering what other babies weighed around a similar time and what percentile they’re on if you don’t mind sharing. I’m 30 weeks and my baby ...

What does everyone think for gender?

Im 33 weeks and have been having regular growth scans every two weeks and scans every week to check the placenta and blood flow to baby, They have said my baby weighed 3lb 4oz at 32 weeks and is below the 3rd percentile, I’m being induced no later than 37 weeks but they’ve said baby could come before if necessary. ...

I just had labs done yesterday… after fighting not feeling well and my whole body itching for over a month.. The clinic just called and left a message saying my kidneys are functioning at 55% and to up my water intake and retest in a few days (I already drink 60oz a day easily) I’m mildly freaking out and of cour...

Ladies remind me, is it a full, empty or half bladder for 4D scan at 27+4?

How many scans are people planning to have in the first trimester? Is it too much to have 7 weeks, 10 weeks and 12 weeks? X

Hi all 😊 just curious how much your little ones weighed at your 32 week growth scan. Our babe was 4lbs 4oz at scan today

Had my 13 week scan and was actually so shocked at how much the baby was moving! It was doing flips and crossing its legs and its arms were moving so much that they had to get me to wait half an hour, eat and wee and then come back to finally take pictures and measurements which we happened to get in the end! 😂 we…

So I’m 39 weeks and been told I have a big baby. I had a growth scan 2 weeks ago and was on 88th centile weighing approx 7lbs. I’ve just had another scan today and been told he’s on 95th centile weighing 8lbs 10. I was then referred to speak to the doctor about my options and felt really pressured into agreeing to a...

Hello all, I’m 30+2 today and had a growth scan as my bump is small and my baby is only on the 15th percentile. Has anyone else had this? Thanks

So recently had a scan and left feeling a bit disappointed as I didn’t get a clear nub image really. The sonographer just said to look closely at this particular part of the ultrasound..but not sure what I’m looking at? I can faintly see three small shadows…and what looks like a forked end. Is that the nub?

Measuring 8+ 5 weeks 🤩 Due date December 10 ❤️ baby looking good with a FHR of 177

Had my first ultrasound yesterday! Baby is measuring 6w4d which gives us a due date of 12/21. FHR was 124, all looked well💛

I was told at both my 12 weeks and 20 week scan that I had a posteria placenta. I just had a scan at 25 weeks and have been told I have an anterior placenta? Has this happened to anyone else? I didn’t know it could move 😂

I have my 12 week scan in a couple of hours, do I need to have a full bladder at all? Xx

I can’t help but notice how “cool” some doctors are around the 20 weeks scan based on the stories read here and my own one from yesterday. “All ok with the baby” that’s it. No congratulations, no excitement, nothing. Like I went to order a coffee and they just served me “here you go” I know NHS is so overcrowded an...

My son is now 5 months old but when he was first born, they did a hearing screening whilst he was on SCBU and it indicated a possible issue with his right ear, they basically said to wait until he’s older and see what happens. Has anyone else had this? What was the outcome?

My son at the top when he was born, my 4D scan from this pregnancy. We are keeping gender a suprise until birth but convinced I’m having another boy now🤣 does anyone think they look similar?
