13 week scan

Had my 13 week scan and was actually so shocked at how much the baby was moving! It was doing flips and crossing its legs and its arms were moving so much that they had to get me to wait half an hour, eat and wee and then come back to finally take pictures and measurements which we happened to get in the end! 😂 we…

Big baby/induction

So I’m 39 weeks and been told I have a big baby. I had a growth scan 2 weeks ago and was on 88th centile weighing approx 7lbs. I’ve just had another scan today and been told he’s on 95th centile weighing 8lbs 10. I was then referred to speak to the doctor about my options and felt really pressured into agreeing to a...

Small baby

Hello all, I’m 30+2 today and had a growth scan as my bump is small and my baby is only on the 15th percentile. Has anyone else had this? Thanks

What is this?

So recently had a scan and left feeling a bit disappointed as I didn’t get a clear nub image really. The sonographer just said to look closely at this particular part of the ultrasound..but not sure what I’m looking at? I can faintly see three small shadows…and what looks like a forked end. Is that the nub?

Placenta moving?

I was told at both my 12 weeks and 20 week scan that I had a posteria placenta. I just had a scan at 25 weeks and have been told I have an anterior placenta? Has this happened to anyone else? I didn’t know it could move 😂

20 week scan feedback

I can’t help but notice how “cool” some doctors are around the 20 weeks scan based on the stories read here and my own one from yesterday. “All ok with the baby” that’s it. No congratulations, no excitement, nothing. Like I went to order a coffee and they just served me “here you go” I know NHS is so overcrowded an...

Hearing Screening

My son is now 5 months old but when he was first born, they did a hearing screening whilst he was on SCBU and it indicated a possible issue with his right ear, they basically said to wait until he’s older and see what happens. Has anyone else had this? What was the outcome?

Gynae referral

I have been waiting since November for a referral back to gynae to investigate if I have endometriosis. I'm really struggling to cope with the symptoms I get every month. I've contacted my GP again and there is nothing they can do to speed along my referral. I'm also concerned that even once I'm seen by gynae I migh...

16 week appointment

I have been given my 16 week midwife appointment, but it’s not until I’m over 20 weeks. It’s a bit annoying, but should I actually be concerned?

Placenta previa question

I was diagnosed at my 20 weeks anatomy scan with placenta previa. My OBGYN did not even call me with the result. I brought it up at my monthly appointment at 24weeks that my scan showed placental previa and should I be concerned since I was spotting. He said oh I didn’t see that, and then read the report and said ye...

Big baby!

Hi ladies, I had my growth scan today. Last growth scan baby was growing as normal, this time round I was told she’s at the 97th percentile due to my GD! I’m very petite and I don’t know whether that relates to anything, but I don’t know about vaginally birthing a big baby. I was told if she stays on the 97th per...
