Community Posts, Tips & Support on Pregnancy Scans

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...

My gender reveal is Next weekend however I just wanna see what you guys think! Context i was roughly 15 weeks in these scans and i already have a 15 month old! Update✨ Its a boy!

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...

We had our 12 week scan today, and it was amazing to see our little bean but unfortunately was not able to get any screening. Baby was not cooperating and despite walking around and having a chocolate bar, the position meant that they could not screen and I won’t get any screening apart from the DS blood test in a ...

What percentile are your babies measuring at? I had my 28 week midwife appointment today and my boy is measuring at the 97th! I did think my bump looked big 😂

36+4 today and had a growth scan where baby was 7lb. What are your little ones measuring at??

I'm 22 weeks pregnant and today went for a uterine artery doppler (due to having pre eclampsia with my first son) which confirmed "PI is raised" which translates to the placenta isn't functioning as well as it should be so I'm at further risk of pre term birth/developing pre eclampsia again and having a small baby. ...

Mums who have had 4D scans would you recommend them or is it a waste of money? 🤍

I just moved from Colorado to Oklahoma and in Colorado for my first pregnancy I received a decent amount of ultrasounds which I was glad because it made me worry less. Now I’m in Oklahoma pregnant with my second and they are saying I only get two ultrasounds the whole pregnancy? This is weird to me because do I not ...

Hi ladies - I had my 36 week growth scan today. Everything looks great but babies abdominal circumference is suddenly measuring so big that it’s not even plotting on the lines on the charts. At my 32 week scan, everything was around 50th percentile including the abdominal circumference. Legs and head are both around...

So I’m 12 weeks on Monday and had 2 private scans one at 5 weeks and 1 at 10 and my 12 week scan isn’t until I’m 14 weeks should I ring my midwife n maybe ask if they have anything before or am I been picky 😂

12 weeks, officially in my final week of the first trimester and past " the safe zone" !! 🥳 I did it and made it through and i'm so grateful to god❤️ It's been rough so far but every single bit of it was worth it if it means getting to grow the most beautiful gift god could ever give me. I can't believe i'm a mommy…

Had my first ultrasound conforming pregnancy. Went to a completely different obgyn and loved them much more. They did have difficulty finding the heartbeat but they said not to worry baby is small still so the heartbeat isn't as loud.

Gutted with my scan photo but they just wouldn't stay still no matter how hard we tried was hoping for someone to no gender by nub 😭😭 11 week 5 day scan luckily there scanning me again next week as couldn't do all the checks as wouldn't stay still long enough ... already have 2 boys and a girl praying for another…

So today I had my 20 week scan and they said I have sticky blood going to my placenta and need to take aspirin as it’s dangerous and I’ve been referred to the the placenta consultant and that it came back positive on a test they did in my scan or a screening well it’s scared me to death as it can be very very risky ...

Hey Mummies, I just wanted to ask how many appointments do you get with midwife and how many scans do you get with the hospital in general? It’s a very long wait from 12 to 20weeks if I’m being honest.

Hi tomorrow I have an appointment at the hospital and it just says Obstetrics - Antenatal Appointment but I’m only 7 weeks so would that be a scan appointment? Or just bloods etc

Where did everyone go for a private early scan in Liverpool?

Do they listen to the heartbeat at this appointment? Can’t remember from last time!

He checked for about a minute and the initial glimps he said yep it's a boy, but then when he got closer he was like ... hang on a minute. No. I can't see anything screaming boy. He said he would not be inclined to say. What do you think? What would you believe. 14 week scan is in comments
