Sorry another one here after my 12week scan, what do we think? Boy or girl? I think one picture looks like a girl and then the other looks like a boy? 🩷💙

My baby has dropped in percentile every growth scan. Started at 56% to 14% to 5.6% and now 2.9% at 34+4. My doc isn’t too worried cuz dad and I are small people and he’s still healthy but seeing a 1% abdomen measurement is so scary. Does anyone have positive birth stories with percentile readings this low?

Baby is measuring right on track from our last ultrasound. 💗 They did discover I have two small hematomas, has anyone else had them? They’re doing another scan in a week to see if they shrink or not.

Found out today at my 36w scan that baby is head down, but is sunny side up. Has anyone delivered a sunny side up baby & what was your experience? Or anyone else get this news recently? Doc said it would be fine but could result in a harder/longer labor 🫠

Can anyone take a guess at the gender from my scan?

Hi all Im 20 weeks and I’ve had 3 scans the past 3 weeks (inc a private gender one) My 20 week scan my baby is sooo deep in pelvis they cant measure the head.

Hi. I have low PAPP-A and have been told to expect a small baby. I'm 22 weeks pregnant and still fitting into all my normal clothes. I'm so self conscious about the size of my bump being small (doesn't help when people comment on it!) and anxious about the growth of my baby. Everything looked fine at the 20 week sca...

Just wondering out of interest if anyone had a growth scan around 32 weeks what was babies estimated weight? I had one yesterday at 31+6, was told baby is overall like 30th percentile but estimated weight is 3lb 15oz (which google says is bang on for 32 weeks so not sure how that makes baby 30th percentile 😂 but…

I’m 11 weeks pregnant, and I’ve had a text with an ‘obstetrics appointment’ at the hospital for when I’ll be 14 weeks pregnant. No further info. I am midwife and consultant led due to twins so my only guess is a consultants appointment? But I’ve had no indication as to when or how often I’d be seeing a consultant. I...
