4D/5D scans
I’m having a 4D/5D ultrasound tomorrow. I’ve read in their consent form that they use high level of waves and now I’m a bit concerned. This isn’t stated on their website. Has anyone else done it?
Is an abdominal ultrasound at 6 weeks accurate at all?
Just got an ultrasound because I have no idea how far along I am. They said 6 weeks 1 day and they could see a strong heartbeat. However, they said they didn’t know for sure and they weren’t going to do a transvaginal ultrasound. They said come back in 2 weeks and they’ll see for sure how far along I am. I know ...
Anatomy Scan!
Had my anatomy scan today and they said everything looked great! She’s a girl for sure! Doctor said they are gonna monitor her closely because she’s in the 91st percentile for her weight already weighing 14 oz at 19w4d! She’s also measuring a week ahead on everything else!
Genetic testing predicting the gender

19 weeks and no movement (2nd baby)
I'm feeling really anxious this pregnancy and cannot put my finger on it. I'm finding this really frustrating because in general I'm not an anxious person. According to my scans my placenta is not in the front like my previous pregnancy. Everything I've read suggests you feel 2nd baby earlier. I'm 19 weeks and haven...

Anyone who has or had Cholestasis, how did you get diagnosed and wh...
12 week check up and no Ultrasound
Just came from my 12 week check up (12w4d) and we talked to the doctor, had blood drawn and the doctor checked the baby's heartbeat with a Doppler. No ultrasound! I'm so disappointed! She said the next one will be at 20 weeks! 😲 I can't wait that long!! My last one was at 9 weeks. Is that normal??? I'm 38 with an…
Gender confusion. Ultrasound advice…
Hi all, At about 15 weeks I had an ultrasound with the NHS who revealed we were having a baby boy and showed us his little parts on the ultrasound. Fast forward to our 20 week scan and we’ve now been told it’s a girl. I’m keen to pay for a private ultrasound as I’m not sure who to trust now, but conscious I’ve ...

I'm 28 weeks and measuring 4 weeks ahead, I have a growth scan a week on Thursday, absolutely bricking it, my dates are definitely correct as I went for an early scan at 7 weeks so I'm quite concerned, can anyone put my mind at rest? My blood tests came back perfect
Growth scan weights
