First scan

Hey! I had my first scan today measuring at 10 weeks everything was perfect apart from I have a small hematoma. The women wasn’t concerned as she said it’s normal and isn’t large. Has anyone else had one before and what was different? I’ve resulted to google and it hasn’t helped!

Anyone else’s baby measured big at midwife appointment?

I had a midwife appointment on Thursday and was told that baby is measuring big, so I’ve been booked in for a growth scan. I was feeling generally okay about it until I started googling tonight. 🙈 Anyone else had this and everything turned out okay?

Looking for reassurance - measuring small and haemorrhage

Had an early scan today. Saw a heartbeat, which was amazing. I thought I was 6+3, but measuring at 5+3... I was also told I have a haemorrhage (3.9mm x 3.4mm x 1.4mm). Although I've not had any bleeding yet, the sonographer said that it's likely I'll get some. Has anyone had one of these, and measured small, and i...

However, each body part had different measurements. For example, her head was 28weeks and 4 days, whilst her stomach was 29 weeks 4 days. Is this nor...

I am currently 18 weeks pregnant and had my 1st baby 9 months ago. I feel this baby kick all the time ever since I was about 16 weeks. When I told my dr she said the baby would have to kick pretty hard in order for me to feel it. So it kind of makes me nervous maybe they got my due date wrong and my baby is older? I...
