I am so damn excited I cant think of anything off the top of my head I should ask or know. Any mums already that have done this before that have advice on what to ask and what to know, what should I be told? What should be covered?
To be fair our sonographer at our 12 weeks scan was lovely and very patient and funny so hopefully this one will be too :)
Thanks in advance x
 
You don't need a full bladder! I wish someone had told me that!
 
Make sure you tell them that you DONT KNOW the sex (if you dont want to)

My Friend made the mistake of reffering the baby as a HE (simply as she already had a son) and Sonographer said "Oh no, its a She" and didnt even ask!!!:wacko:
 
Mine was somewhat frustrating because baby was being difficult. The sonographer kept jabbing my belly numerous times in a row to get baby to move which did not feel nice. She also had me get up and touch my toes a bunch of times to flip the baby back on her back, as she was face down. She also didn't tell me the sex herself, which is what I wanted. Instead, she did put it in print on the report. It was not the way I planned to find out the sex.
 
My sonographer was great, explained everything to me (even bits of the brain!) she was really lovely and at the end asked if we had any questions so that was when we asked the sex of baby x
 
If you want to know the gender. I'd drink coke in the hour before :)

My sonographer was delighted I had. He wriggled about which meant she saw everything she needed too and we found out the gender :)
 
Thanks ladies I had heard of the coke thing but being its at 9 oclock in the morning I dont really want to drink coke. Im guessing a cup of coffee will have the same affect as baby always moves alot after really hot or really cold drink.
we do want to know the sex so I will make it clear that we want to know but not until the end or ill be so over excited I wont concentrate on the rest of the scan lol xx
