Im 30 weeks pregnant and went for a scan the other day as I’d been having reduced movements so was sent for one. We were told they were certain we were having a girl at our 20 week scan.

I’m waiting to see my doctor but of course panicking a little… i found a lump in my left breast that is quite painful and will move under my skin if touched. I’ve been on dr google and it mentioned breast cancer doesn’t normally move. Just wondering if anyone has experienced cysts like this before?

Baby boy is weighing 7 lbs 4 ounces and is already head down. They told he is in the 81%ile. That's good right? Do you think he could get bigger before he is born? I'm so excited, I can't wait to meet him
Had scan thinking I would be 6w 1d, I know exactly when I ovulated but baby measured 5w 5d (there was a flickering heart beat and they’ve invited me to go back for a rescan next week) but I am so worried these measurements wouldn’t even work out as I got a positive test at 8DPO which would then mean I was only 5DPO ...

Baby decided to be awkward and was laying upside down with their back to the sonographer, even had their legs crossed not that we want to know the gender just made me giggle 🤭
Hi Ladies, we had our gender scan today I’m 17+3 and absolutely thrilled to say we’re having a baby girl 🩷🎀🩷 Due 16th October & couldn’t be happier!!! Xx
I had my 20 week ultrasound Tuesday and was wondering if my baby weighing 11 ounces & being in the 45th percentile a good thing ? I wasn’t concerned at first but why did the percentile thing get me overthinking once I looked it up 😭
Hey! So I’m having my 4th and last baby in December And I wanted to document my pregnancy, but not sure what kind of things to include in it! So I can’t include any videos from appointments/scans because they don’t allow that where I live. And I really can’t afford a private scan, although I’m tempted to save up...
