At my growth scan was told baby had dropped to the 37th percentile from the 65th so we’ve got a scan for two weeks time, how ever my question is had anyone experienced this before? And basically if you had did your baby continue to drop or did they gain in weight.. Sorry just a very anxious mum 🙃

Hi I'm spiraling a little bit, could you tell me what your nuchal fold result was on your 20 week scan Mine was 3.5 but I have seen it's supposed to be lower then 3 And I've just such a horrible feeling If it is then why haven't they picked up on it?

Anyone else feel like the wait for the scan is taking forever?! The closer it gets, the more worried I get that something is wrong! My scan is next week when I’ll be 12+6

The person performing the scan said the sac is measuring at 3 weeks. How is that possible? The first date of my last period was on 25th January and I got my LH surge/smiley face on 8th February. I then got my first positive test on 19th February. The lines on the clear blue tests have gotten darker. I haven’t had an...

I found out I was expecting Triplets at a private scan at 7W3D. I don’t have my NHS scan until 12 weeks, is it safe to travel abroad at 9/10 weeks.

Hi ladies! Could anyone recommend a private clinic for an ultrasound scan, preferably in North London? I don’t have any concerns, I just want to see my baby and make sure he’s doing well. I find it hard to accept that the NHS only offers two scans at the beginning of pregnancy, and after that, we’re expected to be c...

Any gender guessing based on theories ? Measuring 11weeks +3. 157bpm heart rate. 47mm CRL. Will try nub theory after 13 week scan in two weeks .

Does anyone have any idea how I stop panicking that something has gone wrong every day, having to stop myself booking another private scan even though I had one on Monday! I don’t really have a great deal of symptoms and I’m finding it so hard to not worry

I had my appointment this week, and was expecting to hear the baby’s heartbeat then, but the appointment involved sorting out things my first midwife forgot to do (e.g.: book a test to check for gestational diabetes because of PCOS, give me my NHS exemption certificate, get a test for my blood type). I was wonderin...

Hey girlies, I had a gender scan 3 weeks ago, but now I’m second guessing. My 20 weeks scan is next week, so I’m waiting for confirmation. What are we thinking ?

Anyone got experience or going through polyhydramnois was diagnosed at 31 weeks with it, and got to have regular growth scans to keep checking the deep vertical pocket to see what levels are. Last scan said I had 8.8cm of fluid. What happened with people with this, did they get induced or have child early.. did it g...

Got a scan on Tuesday. Do I need to go with a full bladder like my 12 and 20 week?

Head circumference Please has anyone been told their child's head is measuring big? My son is 3months and head circumference was measured around 8weeks. HV mentioned it will be re measured and it is big. Did the measurement again and it's still measuring big. Now we have been referred by to the GP to know the way ...

Im getting so impatient waiting for NIPT results 😩 it’s my first, what do y’all think, boy or girl? More pics in comments

Hi all! Had my first ultrasound at 8w. OB said everything looks great. Heartbeat is strong 170bpm. Does this look weird? Around the head part? Not sure why this is freaking me out lol.

Little Miss is doing great!! I’m 20wks 5d and she measures 21wks exactly! Just enough limbs, and just enough organs lol. And the BEST ultrasound of nightmare fuel😂 I can’t wait to see her again in my growth scan booked for May💖

Hi everyone Just looking for some hope. I’m on day 5 of stims today (5th injection tonight). Just had a scan and all follicles are measuring less than 10mm 😫. I’m on max dose so it can’t be increased. Got another scan on Monday. Just very worried they won’t grow and round will be cancelled. I have very low AMH…

I have just had my 36 week scan And the baby is showing one of her kidneys is bigger then the other And over the normal threshold of 7mm It's 8.2mm I'm so worried And it's Friday and I can't speak to the consultant until Monday Has anyone had this?

Just been for my 36 week growth scan, and they couldn’t measure the baby’s head because of how low the baby is. I had a feeling the baby was super low as my pelvic and back pain has been awful the last week! Baby is also measuring on the 90th centile - so quite a biggun!😂 Had loose stools a few times a day,…

How soon after your 12 week scan did you start to share your news? How long do the downs/edwards/pataus screening results take to come back? Thank you 🥰
