Gender ultrasound

I go Tuesday for my gender ultrasound and to make sure baby is doing ok. Just wondering how the process goes? Super excited Ive only had one ultrasound and it was at 9 weeks & 4 days and was a vaginal one.

Since my first one i was super uncomfortable drinking what they said in the directions, this time a half hour before my appt i started drinking a bottle of water and kept drinking while i was waiting and it seemed to work perfect bc i had to wait about 15 mins before i got in and i still had to go badly bc it took about 15-20 mins for the scan plus the pushing they do when they are scanning lol

They told me to have a full but not uncomfortably full bladder.  Also to drink something sugary and eat a snack 10 min before. Worked great!!! Enjoy!

I just had mine yesterday, it was really awesome bc they have tl mesure everything with the baby so u get to see every part, and also hear the heart beat which was awsome! My baby boy was moving all.over and kept covering his face when the tech was trying get his face. The only negative was that by the end i had to pee so bad i.thought i.might pee lol. Other than that is was a great experience and i recorded it like the heart beat and when she told us what he was so the grandparents could see him since they couldnt be there. :)  enjoy
