HI, 
the scan was really dissappointing
everything is absolutely fine with the baby and all sizes are fine but the sonographer was a really grumpy man and he really took the joy out of it, and when i asked about the sex he just said he couldnt tell and showed us the babies foot, whilst he was measuring he had some lovely shots of baby really nice profile shots but then he took a really weird pic of the baby, face on and all you can see are like hollows where the eyes apparently are its the worst scan ive ever had
then to top it all off my husband got up with ryan cos he was starting to fuss and just opened the door to the waiting room and i still had my trousers round my waist and top up to my bra
but on a much brighter note we've booked a private scan for next saturday a proper gender and wellbeing scan its at 1pm which will make it all much better

Hi Lyn,
That does sounds really disappointing. Sonographer's tend to forget how important the experience and the pics are to us, I think. Do you think you'll complain? And, shame on your hubby!
Great news however about booking the other scan, just a shame it's meant that you've had to pay for it - I will be looking out for pics from that one!

Just wanted to say sorry your scan was a little dissapointing, like valentine says I think they can be too ignorant to how exciting and special it is for each mummy and family that gets one sometimes
Lovely to hear you're having a private scan though, I'm sure it will more than make up for this one, very best wishes Lyn

pmsl thats what i was thinkin he was!! my private scan is saturday, we cant really afford it n no way could we afford a 4d one they do sound great tho i'd really love one.
only two days til yours duds are you lookin forward to it?
do you think that it makes a lot of difference how fat you are to how well the scan goes? hubby reckons now i'm much fatter this pregnancy (i blame it on givin up smokin put on 3 n half stone) its going to be a waste of money, do ya think hes just regrettin agreein to spend the money on one?
Lyn I think you should put salt in your hubby's coffee for saying that, at least 
bad OH!! I have been told by every sonographer that being overweight causes 'poor' scan images, but personally I haven't felt that having had 3 very clear scans and being overweight, know plenty of other Mum's who would say the same too, most Doc's are all too quick to blame weight these days, if you still smoked it would be because of that I'll bet 
I hope you have a wonderful next scan, very best wishes
