Low lying placenta at 20 week scan.

Have been told I have a low lying placenta and am seeing a consultant in 2 weeks. It’s not covering my cervix but is considered low. What’s the likelihood it’ll move up by 32 week scan? Also been advised to not have any sex due to risk of irritating the cervix?

Anomaly scan incomplete- no view of RVOT

Should I be worried about this? They got every other check, all other heart checks but were unable to do the RVOT check due to babies position. This was the second scan and they do not offer any further scans.

Petition for NHS funded egg freezing for women with severe endometriosis 💛

https://petitions.senedd.wales/petitions/247092

PLEASE SIGN FOR THE WELSH ENDO LADIES WHO DO NOT ROUTINELY GET FUNDING FOR EGG FREEZING.

NHS Wales does not routinely fund egg freezing for women with endometriosis at risk of losing fertility. This petition calls on the Welsh Government to recognise endometriosis as fertility-threatening and provide equitable access to fertility preservation

My friend created a petition via Change a couple of weeks ago which now has over 800 signatures - highlighting the importance of this issue. Following a meeting with a MS yesterday, she was advised to start a Senedd petition, so that it can be discussed by the petitions committee. She only need 250 signatures for this to happen. Please sign and share for endo girls 💛

Reassurance regarding Down syndrome testing.

Had my blood work done on Monday. They’d said the NF was normal so I assumed all would be ok but I had a voice mail today at 430 to ring back and discuss my Down syndrome results. I knew this wasn’t good news as they said they wouldn’t call if everything was normal.

Rang them back 5 minutes later, no answer again and again; rang my midwife who also tried to get through to them - no answer.

I now have to wait until Monday to find out what’s going on but I can only assume I’m high risk.

Has anyone been through this and everything bee ok? I’m just looking for anyone who’s been told they’re high risk but gone on to have a normal healthy pregnancy. Thank you so much.

How much did you save for maternity?

I’ve worked out I’ll have about £600 left a month to pay for food and any other things not including bills. Should I save more? This doesn’t include my partners left over wage after bills.

prochlorperazine in early pregnancy

Has anybody taken prochlorperazine in early pregnancy?

I’m 7 weeks and have been prescribed it today, the dr did say she had to say there could be risk as they were not tested on pregnant people but that they were commonly taken.

I then of course (stupidly) googled them and am now terrified to take them.

Any advice / experience would be great thank you

subchronic hematoma

I really need some reassurance / advice. I went for an early scan today at 6 weeks 6 days, they said the baby was measuring right and we got to see the heartbeat. Ovaries etc were fine.

They then told me they’d found a subchronic hematoma. My notes state - the uterus contains an area of haemorrhage measuring 24.1mm X 5.2 mm X 7.0mm

They basically said not to worry and it would either come out as spotting or absorb, but obviously I am worrying. they didn’t give me any advise like I couldn’t lift / have sex which I have read online and they haven’t said about having another scan in a few weeks so I guess my next will be my routine 12 weeks.

Has any had this? Thank you.

Sickness

I’m 6 weeks 3 days pregnant and for the past 5 days I’ve been sick after anything I eat, even drinking a cup of tea is making me sick.

Is this normal? Or do I have HG? Is there anything I can take to relieve it? I’m so drained and to the point where Im scared to go out anywhere incase I’m sick.

Really appreciate any advice and I hate to moan as I’m so grateful to even be pregnant and the symptoms are reassuring but this is not fun!!

TTC JOURNEY after abortion.

Looking for some support without judgement.

I had an abortion last year due to a really difficult situation. After the abortion, I somehow conceived straight away the same month and had to then have another abortion which really affected me.

I have since started TTC (this is month 4/5) and I have had no luck. I’m in a really happy, supportive relationship. 28 years old and feel like I’m really ready now.

I feel awful like the abortion has stopped me being able to or that it is some sort of punishment now. I’m scared that I’m now unable to conceive or I missed my opportunity.

I have been tracking every month with ovulation strips and have made sure to time intercourse correctly, taken vitamins as well as my partner. Stopped vaping, started going to the gym and eating better.

I’m looking for anyone who’s been through the same thing, I just hope I can get my chance again. Please no negativity I already feel bad enough.
