had my 20 week scan and the nuchal fold on the baby is measuring at 7.6mm but everything else with the baby is absolutely perfect. It’s came quite as shock to me and I’m also worrying about it. Has anyone had similar to this and all has been ok? They’ve booked me in for a re scan in 3 weeks time. I was also low ri...

I had a growth scan last week (36 weeks) and babies growth has dropped slightly. They want me back in next week (38 weeks). If there’s no improvement or she’s dropped again what happens? Do they induce? Has anyone experienced this?

Hi! Does anyone know if there’s a delay with getting 12 week scan / booking appointment for Belfast trust? I’ll be 12 weeks in a couple of days and still haven’t heard anything or got a date for it? Thanks in advance x

We had an early scan last Tuesday and the ultrasound tech dated at 5+5 which makes us 7 weeks tomorrow ♥️ I feel so silly celebrating every week like it’s some big milestone but I am so anxious all the time knowing I’m a week closer to the 12 week scan feels huge. Video of the tiny little heartbeat 🥺♥️

I had a scan two weeks ago I was 31 weeks baby was weighing at 4lb 6oz. What was your baby’s weight at this gestation I have a scan again Monday. And I’ll be 33 plus 5 weeks. I think I am going to have a big baby this time around 😂

Hi all, I've got my 20 week scan today and feeling quite nervous. Can anyone provide any words of reassurance or comfort please? 🙂

Around what time does baby allow themselves to show gender during an ultrasound ?

Is anyone measuring as if they’re farther along and having your due date change?

Anyone else have their scan tomorrow? How you feeling? 🥰 2nd pregnancy and I’m a bag of nerves!!! Hope your scans go well xx

Babies kidneys were a little dilated at 20 week ultrasound. 24 weeks today and one kidney resolved but one is still dilated. Praying for a positive outcome, we’ll check again in 6 weeks.

Did anyone else have a bad NHS scan and I asked the woman why as my daughters wasnt blury. She said people with high BMI don't get a clear picture. I was wondering if anyone had been in a similar situation and if the 20 week scan was better. It just makes me anxious about going to the NHS because I feel like I am...

Anyone else like me and their 12 week scan picture wasn't good and you couldn't even see the baby 😭

Had a scan today I’m 15 +5 and I asked about gender she looked and didn’t see anything that indicated boy so she is 99% positive it’s a girl! But could this be wrong at my 20 week scan? Feel super excited as I always wanted a baby girl but don’t wanna get my hopes up !

How did everyone feel during their anatomy scan? First time mom here so everything makes me feel so anxious! 😬 My husband and I are waiting to know the gender for our intimate gender reveal photoshoot in two weeks.

Boy or girl?

Any guesses before my gender scan? This was at 13+2. Added another photo in comments xx

I am very sad as I went today for the baseline scan and I only have three follicles and I am 42 years old. I feel it a lost cause :-( Did anyone with such a low follicle count had any success story?

I’m abit dumb when it comes to percentiles? What does this mean, does it mean baby is measuring a little small? But nothing to worry about?

Got my 20 week scan at 10am, do I need a full bladder? It says nothing on the letter and even tho it’s my third I can’t remember 🫣
