About this episode

This week is a big week, it's time for your dating scan – the very first time you’ll see your baby! In this episode, we chat to sonographer Kate Richardson about what to expect when you go for your first scan & what sonographers are looking for. In addition to this, obstetrician Jess McMicking joins me to talk about what's going on with your body and your baby at 12-14 weeks of pregnancy. We cover topics such as what foods to eat / avoid when pregnant, taking magnesium to help leg cramps & best sleeping positions.
