I am terrified. I had my 12 week scan on Tuesday when I was 12+5 and there was some issues with the measurement as sonographer couldn’t get the measurements properly. I was reassured that all is fine and nothing to worry about. I left the hospital safe in the knowledge that all is fine.

I am 13 weeks today. I had a call from the hospital yesterday which unfortunately I missed. It was at 4.50 and the clinic closed at 5 so I couldn’t speak to anyone. The sonographer called an hour ago and said I need come to the hospital as there’s some problems with the baby’s head. I don’t know what to think. I can’t stop crying. This was my rainbow baby after I miscarried earlier this year. I am on the way to the hospital now. I had a harmony test done at 10 weeks and I was low risk for abnormalities. I am terrified. I don’t know what am asking.

So sorry OP. This sounds really stressful. It sounds like the sonographer may not have been able to take all the measurements required so try not to worry. If they were aware of problems at the time they would have said. What time is your scan today? Flowers

When are you going? Maybe there were some problems with the footage of the head! Dr.s can be very careless with their turn of phrase at times. Did he say it very carefully and seriously or like he was just telling you why to come back in? If the latter I think it's quite possibly just an insensitive dr rushing on the phone.

Thank you for being here. I can’t think straight. It’s at 12. Am on the way to meet my husband and will go.

Here's hoping for good news, OP. Will be thinking of you at 12. Try not to worry in the meantime (I know, very easy to say, very hard to do). Flowers

Try to remember that there's things that are not quite right that need to be checked but have little or no impact on a persons life. Or this may simply be an additional check to ensure everything IS perfect.

Good luck. But reading this it just sounds like the sonographer needs to think before they speak.

FaFoutis · 16/11/2017 10:45

I was called back after a scan about my baby's stomach, I nearly got run over on the way to hospital as I was so terrified. My baby was fine.
Good luck Redarc.

I really think it could be that they didn't get the measurements and they need to take them again. Can you please let us know how you get on? I'm sure you'll be in our thoughts xx

Redarc · 16/11/2017 11:06

Thank you all of you kind women for being here. I am sorry for the quick message. We are just rushing to the hospital now and I will come back to let you know what happens. Please keep my baby in your thoughts and prayers that she’s okay.

Thank you so much every single one of you. I was in such a bad shape when I posted this morning. I had a transvaginal scan and all measurements are correct. Had a second opinion from another sonographer who scanned me as well and they were both happy and all appear normal for this gestation. My husband and I were a wreck in the room but we are okay now. Thank you for being here for us. Flowers
