good luck with this tis a very exciting time for you - stay positive - the worst bit I found was the huge amount you had to drink before hand - dont know if you still have to do this or not ?

I think I will end up blubbing my emotions are all over the place at the moment.
Not sure about the drinking thing? Others have told me but not the Midwife, perhaps they will do this when I get there?
I want to know what I am having but I think I will find out at my next scan rather than this one.
I will let you all know how I get on!! I will be going soon ! x x x

You must make sure you have loads to drink, the picture will be much clearer if your bladder is full.
Thanks I will start drinking now, xx x x x
it was a while ago now but I hadnt drunk enough and they couldnt get a clear picture so I was sent out to waiting room with a litre of water and not allowed back in until I had drunk it

I was told that my bladder was too full and I had to go and empty half of it!An almost impossible task, I'll have you know!
OH MY LORD - another forum pregnancy, it's contagious
Good luck mimi

I had to go for a scan the other week, the leaflet which accompanied the appointment letter told me to have a full bladder, I don't know why this was necessary for a scan on my neck

I had the same problem, I was told to do 'half a wee'. 
It's hard enough to do a half wee when you're not bliddy pregmunt never mind when you've got a baby balancing on your bladder! 
Ha ha Cinds! May be it was their way of telling you to be very hydrated.
All the best Mimi, exciting times

Maybe they thought it was for the neck of your womb?
How much do you get to see at a 12 week scan?
I never had one with any of mine..only ever had the 20 week ones.

You don't see much, although you can tell it's a baby not just a bean. They can't do gender or anything until the 20 week scan.
Aaah I see....
mind you, with 3 out of my 4 they couldn't tell me what i was having,.

congrats Mimi another forum baby! whose the one getting everyone preggers?!! you'll love seeing baby on the screen, and seeing it move. i always think it's going to be a black screen till i see the baby lol....probably cos my mum had a phantom pregnancy once.
i got told off for not having a full bladder last time, even though i drank the required 2 pints an hour before the scan and was bursting to go
the time before that i drank too much and was in alot of pain it was so full, turned out i was 19 weeks gone and didn't need a full bladder at all ...i never seem to get it right lol.

Hi guys just to let you know, I went to the hospital yesterday only to be told there wasnt any appointments left for a scan that day . To be honest I was very upest and cried loads, I want to see my baby, they just did my bloods and history, I have my scan appointment now booked in for Monday (only 4 more sleeps)....I will let you all know how I got on!

How did they manage that?
Did they overbook?
At least they have you booked in again pretty quick.
