Sorry if I sound thick but had a growth scan today and the midwife didn’t tell me much other than all was ok, so I went in the chart I was told about a few weeks back to see this on there, what does it mean is this good? 😅

Hi all, I have been for a growth scan today and was told baby boy is breech 😩. Anyone else in the same boat? I feel super anxious about it, I know there is still plenty of time for him to turn, but I still feel so worried! Thank you xx

When did people get their letter? I never got one with my first pregnancy either I ended up having to call them to get a scan date but I’m eager to know when it will be as I’m 12 weeks Sunday!

I have my gender scan tonight I’m soo anxious I just worry somethings wrong but everything has been going perfect just think now symptoms have eased I worry more!

I had my 7 week scan today and I just wondered if everyone got to hear their babies heart beat? As I only got shown it on the screen and photos after of course. Was still amazing but hope I didn’t miss out on this.

I had my 20 week scan today. I am a plus size lady and I’ve got Crohns Disease, Bile Acid malabsorption, PCOS, and Interstitial cystitis so I am considered high risk. This pregnancy has been up and down as I’ve had two major bleeds due to a haematoma and I was told last week I have polyps on my cervix. Today I was...

Can anyone recommend a private clinic that offers saline sonogram (Kent, UK?) as a baseline scan? I'm with a clinic abroad so getting it done there won't be possible. I wanted to get a better overview of my uterus than just a standard ultrasound before my FET.

Has anyone had a 4D scan preview at a private scan at 19 weeks?

Today I had my midwife appointment and she booked for me a growth scan, I’m 31+5 , she said measurement is lower so that’s why..but she didn’t looked worried, should I be concerned ?😟

I have my first midwife appointment today. Can anyone tell me if I get to listen to my baby’s heartbeat at the first appointment?

12 week scans and potty shots, I’m 19 weeks now and we were told a gender at 16 weeks but have our 20 week scan on the 3rd December. What are people’s guesses based off these. I’ll post one here and some in the comments🥰

Hi, I was wondering if anyone is considering a private reassurance scan? I was hoping to book one soon but I was wary about being too soon

Anyone who is consultant led- how many appointments have you had with them so far? I had 1 phone call for 5 minutes when I was 10 weeks pregnant and since then nothing. In my first pregnancy I saw them after every scan but so far I've had my 12 weeks and 20 weeks scan and heard nothing

When did you tell your other children that you were pregant. I have a 2 1/2 year old and a 12 year old stepson. I'm currently 8 weeks with my second. I'd really like to tell them both together this weekend so we can tell our family next week at our annual family pre christmas meal then I can relax and not have to re...

Just over 13 weeks scan, what do we think 💙🩷????

Hey ladies! Last month I had a suspected ectopic pregnancy with no medical treatment that resolved itself I had one scan where they showed me the “mass” (that’s what they called it) in my right tube, the days following they had to do more bloods and keep scanning as they then said they couldn’t find it anymore and a...

I have some extra fluid, as well as asthma… so we have been on weekly ultrasounds since mid October. They got some super cute shots of my sweet girl the other day, so I just had to share them!

What are the ‘normal’ routine scans given in pregnancy? Is it only the 12 weeks and 20 weeks? Or there another one too? With my first I had extra scans as he was measuring big. This baby I’ve had my 12 weeks and 20 weeks NHS scans, a private gender scan in between these two, but then due to stuff on my 20 week scan ...

Hi I had a scan today and I was told there was too much fluid around my baby. Has anyone else been told this? I tried to ask more questions about the impact on baby etc but I was just told that I need to get my diabetes under control. I wasn't provided any other information but this has got me worried.

I had my first midwife appointment today and put my due date as July 19th🫶🏼 Obviously this can change with the 12 week scan but wondering if anyone is due around the same date as me?🌸 This is my first baby after TTC❤️
