Hey Puppies

It's horrible isn't it! With my first pregnancy, I did exactly what they told me to do (I think they said to drink a litre! and hold it)..well by the time I had the scan I was almost in tears! (Not quite!) but it was bad, and my bladder was too full apparently so I had to go empty some out so they could continue the scan.

Anyway, I have learnt now that because I'm small and it doesn't take much for me to have a fairly full bladder, I just have a couple of cups of water (not even big cups) before the scan and that seems to work fine.. without bringing tears to my eyes! So maybe you are the same, maybe don't drink as much as they say. The u/s people also usually tell people (at the place I go) not to be uncomfortable just feeling a bit full.

IMO I think vag u/s are much worse.
