I have a little boy and the ultrasound was quite obvious, how do we know this is a girl?? I’m so excited to have one of each💗

My baby is 8 weeks old and at his 6 week check up, the doctor noticed his right hip was clicking (although it was fine when we left hospital and his 2 week check up). We have been referred to go to Merlin park for an ultrasound on his hip. Has anyone gone through this and can you share some light on the situation as...

I have a small bump at 31 weeks I don’t even feel pregnant. I’ve had a growth scan at 29 weeks and apparently baby was measuring fine but I can’t understand why I have no bump 🙈

Comments welcome on why

I’ll be 37 weeks on Saturday I went for my routine growth scan today and baby has had a jump in weight. Last scan was at 33+6 he was efw 4lb 4oz, today at 36+5 efw 6lb 13oz. Has anyone experienced the same & the test come back ok? Or vice versa? I have to see a consultant on Wednesday next week too to sort a plan...

Ramzi theory possible? 8w2d Ultrasound done by stomach

I'm roughly 9 weeks (still waiting for my 12 weeks dating scan, first time mum) about a week ago all my symptoms have stopped. I had sensitive boobs and nausea, now i have nothing, i don't even feel pregnant anymore! Has anyone else had this anxiety? I'm debating on getting a private scan or maybe order a doppler. H...

Hey - I got told I need an induction due the growth being 40 grams under than what he should be but I declined and asked for another scan in two weeks. I have just had that scan and now they’re saying he’s grown too much so I need an induction??? To me it just looks like the scan on the 25th September was not correc...

I’ve booked a private scan to find out the gender of baby for tomorrow. I’m 18+4 weeks and I’ve just read the confirmation email and it says come with an empty bladder, this makes me think the scan will be an internal one which I don’t really fancy if not required. I know they recommend internal scans if you’re befo...

Hello All, I’m currently 34w+6. I went for a routine midwife appointment today and my baby is now measuring at 97 centile meaning she’s very large. two weeks ago I was measured and she was with in the normal range so they are sending me for another glucose test even though the one I did two weeks ago was normal an...

Have anyone else’s growth scans at 32 weeks shown that babies femur is on the 3rd percentile but was born with no problems? I keep getting told she will just have little legs but I can’t help googling and worrying myself.

How many private scans (if any) did people have! And how many weeks were you at each? I’m always fighting to urge to book another one 😂

This scan was at 13 +2! Have my 20 week scan in just over a week! Would love to know peoples guesses 🥰

I had my 28 growth scan and consultant appointment today. Everything is all ok and growing nicely but I did a carbon monoxide test twice and first it was 4 then I did another and it was 5! I know it should be less than 3 and now I’m really worried. I did one 3 weeks ago at my 25 week midwife appointment and it was f...

So again my midwife has told me my bump is measuring small and im going for a growth scan on Sunday which I’ll be 35 weeks then. If the baby shows small, will they induce me early? What will happen?

Hey all! I had a scan today and baby is measuring above 5lb and I’m 32+5. Showing that baby is measuring at 35+6. Has anyone else had this? Also, baby’s head is really low down and i’m getting lots of niggly pains but unsure if it’s growing pains. Has anyone been through similar? Just got it in my head i’m going to ...

It’s getting real now! Had my growth scan today, baby is estimated to be 4lb 5oz. Didn’t realise the NHS did 4D scans so that was a surprise! Find it totally amazing but also very surreal lol

I have my 12 week scan at the hospital next week but have no childcare for my 2 year old as obvs I want my partner with me for the scan. Does anyone know if my 2 year old would be able to come in with us or do they not allow kids in? x

So, this is my first baby and he has been measuring big pretty much since 20 week scan. Just had my second growth scan I’m 36+5, they think baby is 9lb now 😳😬😮 no gestational diabetes or anything either. (HOW have I grown such a big baby? I haven’t had a big appetite or anything through out and barely gained any…
