I'm 13 weeks pregnant, and I recently had an ultrasound for NT. The report mentions that the placenta is forming anteriorly, with the lower margin covering the OS, and it states there's grade 0 AFI adequate. Could you recommend a good hospital for treatment and support throughout the rest of my pregnancy? I'm really hoping for a normal delivery. What should I be concerned about or do next?

Feeling your 3-year-old son's heartbeat by placing your hand on his chest can be a normal finding, especially if he's active and healthy.
Possible explanations:
- Thin chest wall: Children's chest walls are thinner, making it easier to feel their heartbeat.
- Normal cardiac anatomy: Some people's hearts are more prominent or closer to the chest surface, making the heartbeat more palpable.
- Increased cardiac output: Active children may have a higher cardiac output, making their heartbeat more noticeable.
No cause for concern:
Unless your son is experiencing other symptoms such as:
- Shortness of breath
- Fatigue
- Pale skin
- Dizziness
- Chest pain

View allI'm almost six months pregnant but I'm still not feeling any baby movement and I'm kind of worried.

I really have no clue and this is my first pregnancy.
-It's completely understandable to feel unsure, especially as this is your first pregnancy. Baby movements can feel like gentle flutters, bubbles, or light taps at first, and they may not be consistent early on. It can vary for each pregnancy, so don't wo

I've got a bit of a concern about my period and Plan B. I had my period mid-July, from the 14th to the 18th, and then I had unprotected sex on the 19th. I took the emergency contraception pill on the 22nd. But then, oddly, I got my period again on the 28th, and it only lasted about 4 days. Is this normal? Could this be a side effect of taking Plan B?
-Yes, the bleeding you experienced on July 28 could be a side effect of the Plan B pill. Its common for emergency contraception to cause irregular bleeding or spotting, even if your period comes around the usual time.
