In some serious pain after U/S today....


I went for my second ultrasound today, and man an I in pain right now, and my hip bones are turning purple. The lady was pushing down so hard that her arm was shaking, and she kept going down on my hip bones, and squishing the little bit of skin between my bone and her wand... I was almost in tears. It is bad enough that I have been having really bad stretching pains there, and this just made it even worse.... I didnt know that you could actually bruise on your tummy. Kay, I am done complaining..... for now

Holy crap. I would complain, I'm sorry, but that isn't how U/S are supposed to be done.

Usually, but In my case they werent able to get a good look at my first one, cause bubs was moving around too much. And also with my first pregnancy I had gestational diabetes, so I had btween 10-15 U/S done... but this time around we dont know if I will get it (so far so good), cause I have lost so much weight and am healthier.

You are correct unless there are complications or concerns. The wait drives one wacko though.

That is unbelievable! An ultrasound is not supposed to hurt!

I'd definitely complain too!
