Yeah, I’ve heard this is very common and normal and the placenta moves upward. If you’re at 35 weeks or so and it’s still there that’s when they start talking about doing a csection. It wouldn’t cause any problems until the actual birth.
NT scan today. Dr said everything looks good. I am 12 weeks today but this little guy is measuring 12 weeks 4 days. We also got to watch him try to cover his face with his hand. So cute!
I got my dating ultrasound this week when I was 11 weeks and 6 days. Baby had a heartbeat of 164 and measuring 12 weeks 2 days. It actually looked like a little baby this time around and was waving their little hand and wiggling all over ❤️
babybumpin2022, this is really helpful! I’m also 14w2d and I had no idea the baby looked so…baby like! I’ll have my next ultrasound on Dec. 30 and looking forward to it! Yippee!
@kalesix3 Mine was booked for Jan 17 (20w3d) but I got in yesterday last minute because of my maternal screening results (very slightly elevated risk for down syndrome of 0.4% when the 'low risk' cut-off is 0.3% -- U/S results dropped it back down to 0.2%)
They called me at 7:30am to see if I could come in for 10am -- and I live 90min away! But I was so excited for the chance to see baby again I got my butt up and moving for it haha
I’ll have one at 16 weeks with my MFM because they want to keep an eye on my cervical length (history of incompetent cervix) and potentially do a cerclage.
@kalesix3 I had an early scan in leu of of a different genetic test (I don’t remember which one). I get my healthcare through the Veteran’s Administration (AF vet here). To get the genetic test I would have had to go to a different clinic and trying to get the VA to understand a simple transfer for one test is like pulling teeth, so my doctor said an early anatomy scan was just as well. So I chose that instead.
Baby did so amazing for the ultrasound today so it was much shorter than the anatomy ultrasound with my son, I'm so relieved it's over! Everything was amazing and looked perfect, baby is absolutely tiny compared to my son too, maybe this is the time I get a tiny baby or maybe it's just going to skyrocket later 😆 38th percentile, measuring exactly to my edd which was novel. Hb was 150 and the tech didn't slip up but baby flashed me really good in the beginning and I didn't see a penis but I also am not an expert so it really could have been and I didn't see it. I'm in love with the little turned up nose 😍
Baby was SO active for our anatomy scan today. He (yes, we found out it’s a BOY!) made the tech and I laugh out loud a few times with his crazy moves. Everything looked perfect! He is measuring 6 days ahead so a little on the big side. Heart rate was 150.

@ReadyForaB oh my gosh huuuge sigh of relief for you, I hoped everything went okay and your sweet baby was growing healthy and happy! Congratulations on a little boy!
@ReadyForaB@hitcj4687 it's the angle of the forehead/nose isn't it? I think it just looks so feminine plus the turned up nose angle idk it's completely different than my son's profile. Gah. Plus the dang ultrasound photo that got deleted. My intuition is screaming it's a girl. Good thing I only have 19 weeks to be strong and not cave lol. I want to know but I want to be surprised so bad.
Had our anatomy scan today and we have a healthy baby boy. He was such a wiggle worm that this was the best profile we could get. Dr also wants me to start taking baby aspirin. He said it helps reduce the risk for preeclampsia especially for diabetics I guess.
everyone, I had my ultrasound yesterday. I was 21 weeks and 4 days. The head size was in the 7th percentile and my doctor said it should be in the 10th percentile so I have to have another ultrasound in a month. Is this normal? I’m so nervous. Everything else measured normal.
@ knottie48517df17e375722, you could ask your doctor what's normal. I don't know, but in my scan on Wednesday the head circumference was fine at 33%, but the feet measured at 7% and there were a number of percentages in between for various other measurements. My doctor seemed to think baby girl was fine. All to say, maybe ask your doctor if you're worried.
I got to see our baby boy yesterday at a follow up at my mfm appt. At his anatomy scan he had choroid plexus cysts which the dr told me was not a concern and they would be gone by 28 weeks and yesterday they were gone!! So happy… even though he said they weren’t a big deal, I of course still worried about it.. Everything else still looks good and I’m free to continue seeing my ob for the rest of my pregnancy. His estimated weight is 1 pound 2 oz 76th percentile 😬 and he is super active. We got to watch him try to suck his thumb again… he just couldn’t quite figure out how to get his finger in his mouth lol. And he looks identical to the baby we were pregnant with before him 💔

@pttomato I hope you don't have any problems this time around with an incompetent cervix.
