So I am 12 weeks on Thursday and still do not have a scan date, saw midwife Monday and she said to wait on letter. Is anyone else awaiting letter for scan still at this stage

I have my 12 week scan tomorrow!!!! I want to burst with excitement 🥹😭🥹😭🌈🤍

My ultrasound tech said this was the yolk sac and obviously she knows more than me but it looks more like another baby to me… when I’ve seen a yolk sac it looks like a hollow circle. I don’t have another ultrasound until 20 weeks. I just wanna know if anyone else sees what I see.

Hi all! I had my 6 week scan after some spotting and they weren’t able to fine an embryo. It’s two weeks later and my spotting has reduced and I’ve done a few tests and they’re still positive. Has anyone else had a similar experience? I’ve got my first gp midwife appointment on Friday x

Has anyone else had their 12 week scan this early - did you end up needing another one closer to 12 weeks?

We aren't finding out what we're having, but I'd like to know what people think from the 20 week scan. Also love how it's sucking its little thumb on this 🥰

So i went and had 3d scan today found out my baby girl is breech and she would not turn and never wanted to play. Was there for an hour and a half legs bent over her face all the way through so I'm a bit gutted as was expecting some lovely clear photos. My placenta is at the front so so was squishing her face into t...

So I’ve only had my 12 week & 20 week scan at the hospital & my normal midwife appointments. Is anyone else in the same position as this? This is my first baby & I sometimes now get really worry that what if they haven’t picked up on something. I feel like you should be offered a scan at 32 ish. I know it’s a go...

Went to the early pregnancy unit today for an early scan due to spotting, I’m 6 weeks today and they couldn’t find a pregnancy in my womb or anywhere else. Apparently I have a tilted womb so we had an internal scan but still couldn’t see anything. Anyone have this and have a positive outcome?

We’re so sure our baby is a boy but could what we think is a nub be something else?. The nub on the 12 weeks seems so obvious I have added 12 week scan what are your thoughts xx I am now 27 weeks

Hiya! Was just wondering if anyone is/ was in a similar situation to me and perhaps can offer me some reassurance or share their similar experience! I am 35 + 1 and just seen my midwife since my 31 week appointment where I had dropped below 5th percentile and was sent for a growth scan which was all fine and I was ...

Normally in all my pregnancies I would have the 20 week ultrasound scan to know what I'm having. The doctor who is going to do my c section since I had one last time last year told me I have to wait til 22 weeks along for the ultrasound! Is that even normal now? That seems so far away even when it's next month. I wo...

I had my 20 week scan today and baby was not playing ball at all 😂 in the end they managed to get most of the measurements except a few of the heart as baby was adamant they wouldn’t move into a better position! Any tips for trying to avoid this happening again when I go back in a couple of weeks? 😄

Had my 36 week growth scan yesterday. Baby is looking about 6.5lb at the moment. I have GD but they seem to be happy with size of everything. Anyway we got given a 3D scan which I didnt know they do on the NHS. Thought I’d share… Honestly never seen one so clear. Baby girl has her hands on her face and all. 🥰

Hey guys I had my first can today I thought I was 7+5 but baby is measuring 8 weeks and saw a nice strong heartbeat I feel so blessed as I’ve never gone this far in a pregnancy before we can only hope baby continues to grow🤍 can’t wait for my 12 week scan 🌈🤍

i’m 11 week and although i have my scan next monday i’m constantly worrying they’re going to say something wrong. has anyone got any tips for nerves

Hey guys! Had a scan today, dated me at 12 weeks + 2 days.. It was pretty magical I’ll be honest, this is my first and the movement on little bub was crazy! Legs kicking, arms moving & heartbeat going🥹 I’m yet to find out the gender! However I think it’s a boy and boyfriend thinks a girl! We would be very happy…

I had a high CO reading at my midwife appointment yesterday (8) and they told me to call a gas person, investigate where it might be coming from etc. I feel super anxious about it as it is obviously really bad for baby and unsure whether this could just be a fluke or something to seriously worry about. Has anyone h...

We had our 12 weeks scan yesterday. Baby measured 12+6. I’m eager to find out the gender, any guesses based on this? Will add another photo below…

Had my first scan today was supposed to be 7+5 and baby measuring 8 weeks had a healthy heart beat so excited and so happy 🩷
