6 week check up
Just had my 6 week check up, although I’m only 5 weeks pp, there wasn’t a physical examination or anything like that so wanted to check if that’s normal?
20 week scan
Just had my 20 week scan and I’m currently 20 weeks and 3 days. Baby looks healthy and they said I don’t need any growth scans however they did say baby is in the 10th percentile so rather small. Has anyone else been told their baby was small at 20 weeks? Are there complications or risks to my baby being small??
Growth scan
I've just been referred for a growth scan as bump is now measuring a couple of weeks behind. What does it entail? Is it similar to the 20 week scan? We are having a surprise and want to keep it that way ideally...
Constant worry
I’m 23+2 with my second baby and still haven’t felt any movement of significance. A few flutters here and there but nothing I can be sure of. Absolutely NOTHING for the last couple of days.

Growth Scan
Hey ladies! I had my 28 week midwife appt today, I am 27+2 and my bump was measuring 25cm. This is below all of the lines on the chart and my midwife has referred me for a growth scan.

Big baby
I had a growth scan last week at 32 weeks and have been told baby is measuring big (look at the size of his head!!😫) They’ve booked another scan for 36/37 weeks to check and if necessary, offer me an induction. Really not wanting to be induced, will see what they say at the next scan and make my decision but anyone…

Hey all! Planning on getting an early scan at 8 weeks just to calm my nerves. My question is. Can this be a belly scan like normal, or will it be internal?
