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...

Transverse baby

At my growth scan on Thursday baby was showing as being in a transverse position which is really worrying me now being 33 weeks pregnant, has anyone else had this at this stage and had baby turn before labour?

Measuring small

I’m 34 + 1 weeks today and went for a scan last Monday.. I’m now under consultant care, I have two scans in the next two weeks.. baby has dropped in growth and under the 10th percentile. Should I be worried? 😫 she’s always been on the small side but this is my first and not sure how to make sense of it!

Bigger baby

Has anyone else been sent for a growth scan for a potentially big baby? Ours is currently plotting on the 88th percentile. They’re saying they’re not worried unless he goes over the 90th but just wondering whether it’ll end up impacting birth options (i had been considering a water birth) if he does end up being big.

should I complain?

I’m 29 weeks pregnant, due to my bump being on the 10th percentile I was given a growth scan. I went for my growth scan, and was told baby was on the 23rd percentile. but her weight was normal for the gestational age. which I found weird as I had a scan 4 weeks before that and she was on the 46th percentile, and bab...

Baby scan pictures at hospital

I’m aware Medway Hospital charge for baby scan pictures. Can anyone that has had a scan recently tell me if it is £7 per photo or £7 for a set of two?

Anxiety creeping in

Hi gals :) I'm 9+4 weeks with my first baby. I've had on and off anxiety about if everything is going okay! I've got my 12 week scan when I'm 13 weeks which still feels ages away. I just want it to be here and to be reassured! I'm worrying about MMC or potential ones and it's driving me crazy. I'm triple checking ev...

Midwife

This is my 3rd pregnancy and its shocking how this time around have had little to no contact with my midwife. Had my first initial appointment at about 8 weeks. They” forgot” to book me in for the 16 week appointment. I had to find out about it on this app. They booked me in at 18 weeks. I am now 24 weeks and have ...

NHS scan due to concerns at 11w vs 12w dating scan?

I have got a scan on Wednesday due to some mildly concerning symptoms and previous MMC. I will be dead on 11 weeks. I had my midwife appointment on Thursday so haven’t got my 12w scan letter yet. Both scans are supposed to be at the same hospital. Are they likely to cancel the 12w dating scan if everything is fine ...

Had a growth scan yesterday, baby is measuring 8lbs 7 which is still along the 50th centile for my height. Due a sweep next Wednesday but ideally hoping to go into labour before then. Anyone else pregnant and impatient now? 😫
