I clicked on this video as an ultrasound tech expecting the common misconceptions of ultrasound but I have to say this video is perfect. You covered so much and in simple terms. Thank you for this it makes our jobs easier!

Mine is tomorrow.. I’m nervous praying my baby is healthy. After 3 losses this is my rainbow baby boy 🥺

Simply Handmade it sucks we cant post pictures but baby boy is doing so good! He is healthy and weighs 16 oz! Thank you for the prayers!

@@sylindacampos554 does make you feel uncomfortable during your scanning? I'm a bit nervouse now 2 weeks from now my apoint will be due for 20week scan :)

[@sylindacampos554]

@@roselucas4431 don’t be nervous! Once you see your baby on that screen everything will be okay! I just had my son on the 9th due to preeclampsia his due date was the 27th. So definitely be prepared for the unexpected! Praying that all goes well and baby is happy and healthy 💙

Echoing everyone else but this has been so helpful! First pregnancy here and I've been finding it so useful to learn what I need to know from other mothers' experiences.

I go in for this scan on Friday. I'm so excited. This is my first pregnancy! I'm happy I came across this vid it was a big help ❤ thank you.

All the best

[@achanwahn]

I just want to say THANK YOU! Omg, this was calm, informative, helpful and direct. I’ve watched a couple of others and it’s just women blabbing about emotions-which I don’t really connect to, & isn’t what I’m trying to find. This video was priceless! It was perfect and you rock!

[@cadd9511]

As a first time father, my wife and I didn't know what to expect. I really appreciate the tips!!

[@SimplyHandmade]

Cadd congrats on your baby!!! So excited to see a dad comment 👏🏾♥️

Congrats on baby! HOw'd the scan go?

[@jennyralte7468]

I have to do this scan on may 13

[@auroraautumn8764]

I find the Anatomy Dr makes me so nervous compared to my OB. I researched and choose my OB, but the Anatomy Dr I had no control over. I had my third Anatomy today. I’m 22 weeks, 2 days. I had a scan at 12 weeks, then 20 weeks, then 22 weeks.

[@mafiyakhatun870]

Me too

[@track240]

Thanks for sharing your experience! I have my scan this upcoming week, i am a little nervous but excited! I was told that I do not need a full bladder for this scan so hmm. So i guess each place is different.

[@SimplyHandmade]

Thanks for watching!! That’s so interesting - every practice must be different. Are you finding out what you’re having? Wishing you a wonderful scan! It’s so fun to get to see the baby 🥰🥰

[@AnItalianKnitter]

I'm having my anatomy scan tomorrow, and they told me a full bladder is not needed for me either. I already know I'm having a baby girl (based on the genetic testing that we did early on in the pregnancy), but it's going to be exciting to see the baby anyway!

[@Moonlightlove31]

Yes mine actually told me to use the restroom before the ultrasound because they want an empty bladder! Weird!

[@S0ul_Ti]

Just had my anatomy scan, everything went well (thank God!). I too wasn’t allowed to record which sucked bc I would have loved to have that on video. Also they wanted an empty bladder for this scan. Very informative video!

[@SimplyHandmade]

Thanks for sharing your experience! I also cannot stand that you can't record!!

[@cheyenneparadiso6378]

Great video! Very informative! I’m going in for my 20 week scan in just a couple days. I feel like I am prepared now! Thanks for sharing. ❤

[@ginaross5841]

I had my scan today and have to go back in 4 weeks for more/better pictures and your video really put my mind at ease! Thank you, thank you!!!

[@CoachMai]

My wife and I are super excited! I’m also a little nervous though. Our anatomy scan is on Halloween! Same day as our gender reveal. It worked out great, because my doctor will only do the anatomy scan at exactly 20 weeks. We planned the gender reveal for Halloween not knowing that. It just so happens I’ll be exactly 20 weeks on Halloween lol.

Congrats!!!

[@Crystal_Allen]

How was it ?

[@wildcatwilliams9322]

So I had my anatomy scan today at 21 wks pregnant and they made me pee before I had it done. So not every place is the same. But it was about 40 mins bc the machine messed up and had to reboot it but my baby was very healthy and growing right. Already 1lb and it was like a regular ultrasound except longer and I got to see his whole body and movements. He even gave a thumbs up and showing his fist ready to fight lol.

[@everydayeasyrecipes2650]

I was told i dont need to have a full bladder.

[@DANIPOOH14]

This is my first pregnancy. I just had a pre or a semi anatomy scan at 15weeks bc I had a leep procedure back in 09. My next one is in September for 20wk scan. I never realized how nerve wrecking it is to have babies lol my bf has to constantly tell me to stop googling!! lol I’m trying to relax.. but my Goodness. Thank you for this video. Also.. did your tech talk you through what they were doing? Mine was silent it was kinda of irritating. I was constantly asking her what measurement is that etc etc. I’d like to know! 😢😂

[@et3248]

Thank you so much for making this video, it was very helpful! I go in two weeks ❤

[@ellejaydee2764]

Thank you my appointment is tomorrow , I’m nervous

[@slwilliams0717]

Update: Just had my scan yesterday & it was the same as all my other ultrasounds. My baby boy wasn't for the ut so I had to move side to side, they jiggled my belly & he was so uncooperative but they got all they needed 😂 I don't believe I got his length but he's weighing 10oz. & right on track! I'm getting mine in a couple weeks, I was & still am kinda nervous because I'm high risk but overall, my baby boy is healthy as of right now. I can't film at either office so it's sucks not having the footage... I wasn't told to have a full bladder at any ultrasound yet but I've heard that most practices prefer it. Interesting. Thank you for this video! Definitely calmed my nerves

[@SimplyHandmade]

I'm SO glad you updated!! Thrilled everything went perfectly!! Boys can be so uncooperative! hahhahaha

[@Jabx84]

Going for mine next week!!! So excited. 🥰

My office never said anything about a full bladder beforehand and my appointment is in 2 weeks

[@kendraodaniel2009]

I got my anatomy scan at 18 wks 4 days, the lady doing my ultrasound was very open with answering questions and told me she's scanned thousands of babies and didn't see anything alarming about my baby. So maybe it's different in different places 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@sams9824]

Agreed! My technician didn’t mind answering all my Questions

[@heywuzzzupwithya]

They are allowed to answer any questions if the results are normal. If there are any abnormalities, they are not supposed to say anything. Some techs opt to just not say anything regardless which is totally find to do too.

[@halimamohamed5242]

Am so scared am pregnant after mc and l pray it goes we'll my scan is in 5days

I feel for you. I'm still unsure if my husband is allowed in for my scan on Thursday. Its ridiculous! Us mothers NEED support!

Same, my husband sits in the parking lot for all of them. He’s pretty bummed about it because we’re having twins and he’s only seen their 9 week picture

[@vlp4469]

That sucks and is unfair. My paperwork regarding ultrasound stated no visitors either but I called the office to be sure and sure enough they stated I am allowed 1 person for support durning anatomy scan.

[@senoritaErickah]

Will the tech at least tell you gender during the scan? Or do I have to wait until the doctor tells me??

We found out the baby has congenital chylothorax and hydrops and I've been in hospital for 12 days because I also have polyhydramnios and there's a chance the cord could prolapse if my waters go. I'm 35 weeks on Thursday and he's to be delivered this week and has a long NICU stay ahead of him.
