Community Posts, Tips & Support on Pregnancy Scans

At my 27week appointment on Tuesday they told me my bump was measuring 4cm smaller than it should be, they called and referred me for an emergency growth scan. They told me I should receive a call with an appointment on Wednesday and that it would be last minute but booked in before the end of the week. I stressed a...

It’s my first pregnancy and now 29 weeks, when do I start having growth scans? I’m just really curious and eager to know how my baby is doing or growing okay. I heard the midwife say 29cm when she measured my belly with tape on my 28th week but haven’t heard anything from my midwife or during appointments about scan...

13 week nhs scan. What are we thinking? I really thought I was having a boy but this scan is giving me girl vibes 🤷🏼‍♀️🫶🏼

How early can midwife hear baby heartbeat

They believe baby is just constitutionally small (which just means she’s a small baby) have a growth scan at 28 weeks. Has anyone been through this before or going through it? Picture in comments of her measurements vs what they should be. She isn’t majorly on the smaller side, but they said she is below the 10th ...

So I’ve had my bump measured twice now and this is the graph. My midwife hasn’t said anything about it but surely being outside of the lines is a worry? Should I ask about it? Anyone else’s look like this?

I had a growth growth ultrasound on Monday. Everything looks great, but every growth ultrasound I've had they say she is under weight. I was 31w and 5d her weight was 3lbs and 12ozs. The Dr said she was coming at 30w and 6d. Should I be worried? My first was a big baby (9lbs and 12ozs) so I just worry.

My anatomy scan is tomorrow and I have a question for everyone who’s already gotten it done. Do they let you see your baby the entire time during the scan? Or do they only turn the screen to show you at the end? I was under the impression that we got to see baby the entire time and was looking forward to it. (I know...

I had my growth scan today and baby is on the 3rd centile. Is anyone else in the same boat I am so worried.

Guys I’m 13 weeks and 3 days now!! Had my first scan not long ago.. all this time I thought I was having a boy but now I think it might be a girl🥹 what do you guys think?

Had a scan at EPU today at 5+1 and they found baby in the right place, with a yolk sac, HCG 1,500 so pretty high. Everything looks how they’d expect. Hoping this calls my anxiety for a bit, still not feeling sick but I’m sure it will come.

Had a stay in hospital last night after a positive actim partus test (can indicate labour is close), doctor ordered an urgent cervical length scan and growth scan. Baby growing fine but sonographer didn't complete the cervical scan as they said it doesn't change the management if it is shortening. I would have like...

We have our 20 week scan on 2nd of December and was slightly worried about our last scan photos of baby’s feet. Would you guys say his feet look ok?

I’ve just gone on my badger app and seen I’ve been scheduled another scan in January, I’ve already had my 12 and 20 week scan and have another scan on Friday as at my 20 week scan they suspected baby may have Club foot, but nothing mentioned about the one in January, do you reckon this is just a checkup to see how b...

So I’ve booked an early gender scan 15 weeks 6 days. I’ve also booked and paid for our reveal party later that same day. I’ve just come across an email that I had missed at the time of booking which states that the gender is not always visible and reveal party’s on the same day is not advisable. and now I’m worrie...

My OB says it’s no longer their practice to do checks at every appointment, but they’ll do them if asked. Just curious if anyone is experiencing the same? I’m 36+3, having cramping the last couple of days and think I should ask to be checked at my weekly tomorrow!

I have just had a letter booking me in for a routine growth scan at 26 weeks (on Christmas Eve!). Had my 20 week scan last week and was told everything was fine. Happy to see the baby again but just unsure why I've been booked for one, has anyone else had this?

Just wondering have I missed out on some or are they only yet to come ? Also hw often have you been seen by your consultant? My first one will be this week...
