Increased movements

Hi all just wondering if people have gone in with increased movements and what the outcome was? I ended up in triage last night and midwife and dr were lovely and said I did the right thing because baby was super active but the scans of placenta and amniotic fluid were fine so they said to monitor movements and beco...

Gallstone

Not 100% confirmed yet, but I’m sure I have gallstones. I’ve had 4 attacks where the pain is brutal in-between my ribs. It takes my breath away and lasts around 2 hours. I’ve had to phone ambulance twice in which they’ve give me morphine and it’s not subsided. I’m trying to solve this naturally and with diet and av...

Any guesses?

I wasn’t going to post this as I know everyone is probably bored of seeing scans but I’m intrigued what people think. I’m not desperate to know and I appreciate the pics aren’t the best so it’s purely a bit of fun. I’ve been through a lot to get here so I’m enjoying my ā€˜moment’ and giddy to share

Baby measuring small

My last midwife appointment they said my baby was 10th centile from my bump measure but she didn’t refer me for a growth scan even though my first baby was 98th centile at birth. Should she have do you think?

15 week gender scan

I had a gender scan at 15 weeks and 1 day. Found out that we are having a girl but all nub specialists were confident it was a boy. So now I’m worried on how accurate this is at 15 weeks 🫣 Does this seem like a solid girl to everyone?

16 week NHS scan

We have to have a scan at 16 weeks because they couldn’t get the measurements they needed for screening at 12 weeks. Has this happened to anyone else and they’ve told you the gender at the same time? We were originally going to go private but seems silly to pay now we are getting a 16 week scan on the nhs.

Inconclusive scan

Hey, I had a private scan today and they estimated 5 weeks 1 day… according to my app we should be 6 weeks 5 days.. of course might not be accurate but we didn’t see a heartbeat today. We saw the pregnancy sac, yolk and baby.. so 3/4 but they said inconclusive. Is it possible to be almost 2 weeks out? I’m sure it w...
