Hand????

So I have had this question in my head for weeks. Last time I saw my doctor I was 20 weeks. Now I am going to be 22 weeks on Wednesday. Anyways last time I saw the doctor I had an ultrasound everything was great! But I saw everything and not the baby's hands. I have seen most ultrasounds there is the baby hands showing. I was wondering if there was something wrong the doctor would of told me right? I am worried because I have seen the lil feet but not the hands.

If they have a portable u/s machine available at your next appt., at 22 weeks you should be able to see the arms moving no problem.
They would have told you if they had seen or suspected something was abnormal, but I am sure they wouldn't mind if you insisted on another u/s at your next appt.

Yes, I think if something was wrong the doc would have said something. If you can, try to get another one later...ask your doc and let him/her know that you are concerned and they will explain why you couldnt see the baby's hands. Dont stress though, I am sure the doc would have said something if there was anything wrong.
