I had my sonogram scheduled 05/20 they made me drink about 5 cups of water my bladder was killing me but I didnt care because I was going to see my baby so I thought. Well I lay down and the tech starts the sonogram.... with the damn monitor facing her I am looking at her like OK. I turn my head to the side to see if she had the common courtesy of atleast adjusting the monitor so that I could enjoy this moment as well but no... so I am just laying there staring into dead space for an hour while she does her measurements. She then tells me to lay on my side because she needed to measure the babys spine to see if he would turn around and left me laying on my side for 10 minutes in hopes he wud in the meantime she was going to speak to some doctor they had there. 10 minutes later she comes back with this doctor and starts to manuever the wand on my side to see if the baby turns but he didnt. Then the doctor that was with her asks me "Have you spoken to a genetic counselor already?" I am like NO... everything has been fine. So she goes when is ur next appointment so I tell her 2 weeks from now. She said ok you need to speak to a genetic counselor asap and then just walks out. So I ask the tech is there something wrong with my baby ?? And all she tells me is she is not allowed to say anything the doctor will when I have my follow up. After that she turns the screen for like 2 minutes and I finally see my baby after like 2 hours 
she then prints out a photo and sends me on my way.... first of all she didnt even mention the sex of the baby or anything. The only reason why I know what I am having is because I had an elective early ultrasound at a 3D center when I was 16 weeks.
Today received a call from doctor saying I need to go in tomorrow urgently because they found some "important findings in my ultrasound" I have been balling my eyes out. I am upset and angry as well. Mostly angry because ever since I changed my prenatal care to this hospital I have been getting nothing but bad news. First they run the downsyndrome test twice after I told them I already had it done and it came back negative at previous hospital with a 1 in 10,000 chance of having a child with downsyndrome and nuchal transluency test was perfect. When they ran the test first it came back positive then she wanted to push for amnio and I said NO she ran blood work again and it came back negative. Then now they call me telling me my ultrasound done at 22 weeks had something. I am so upset how do I go from a 1 in 10,000 chance and now this new hospital I go to finds all these things wrong with my baby it makes no sense to me.
I am going tomorrow to hear what their "findings" are and while I am at it I am going to get my medical records and transfer back to the OBGYN I had been seeing at the beginning of my pregnancy.
