Mine said orange juice as well, but just in case I am going to bring some back up drinks with me such as soda and ice water.

I Didnt have to have a full bladder for mine but every doc is different.  I don't see the point in it. I saw baby just fine.

Before my appointment for the gender scan, I'm going to eat sour cream and onion chips and drink cranberry juice. I may also take some sips of orange juice as well. I've noticed all 3 gets my baby going. :) Good luck and best wishes!
