Today I have bruises from where I have to lift up the flabby bit on my belly, and really ache, I was knocked around yesterday, should I lay a complaint? Or is that what they do on the 20 week scan? I am sure that they didn't do that last time with Lucy! ------------- http://lilypie.com"> http://lilypie.com">

Bruises??? That doesnt sound healthy! my 20week scan was really good, basically just lay there, i dont think you are supposed to have bruises and feel sore the next day?
but i dont really know, maybe you should talk to your MW? Sorry im not much help, but i wouldnt think you should get any bruises or any soreness from any type of scan |

Ouch poor you Lisha!
None of my 6 scans ever hurt, and there wasn't any poking! They just ran the thingie over my bump and the jelly made it smooth for them. Sounds wrong to me! ------------- Mel, Mummy to E: 6, B: 4 and:

You will fine they were pressing hard to get bubs to move around so they could see the lil bits.
Our first scan at 20 weeks bub was too low so they could not see - he was pressing hard to move her and it was kinda uncomfortable - but bubs was fine ------------- http://lilypie.com">
