Thanks girls, ended up getting the "not so invasive" ultrasound done, still a little afraid in case next time they choose to do the dildo cam next time though..
Very interesting though.. the lady showed me my ovaries and falopian tube.. and my bladder, and she made bits of it go colour so we could see the kidney flushing water into the bladder.. very fast!
I loved it! So interesting..
Funny girls and so true sometimes the humilation starts early !!!
I am glad that it all went smoothly and dildo cam was'nt required I doubt very much that next time will be an issue, if all was clear viewing this time, next time bubs will be bigger again... By the time you get to birth, I doubt you will care??? the more bubs I have the less inhabitions I reckon
so glad that your US went well! congrats! i'm almost 18 weeks and not had the 'dildocam' at all - however do love the name! I have had a heap of US's already to check all is ok so hopefully you can avoid it. when i was trying to conceive i had an US to check my ovaries and they used one then but it wasn't so bad so don't worry to much if you end up having to use one at some stage...actually found it a relief as was so busting to pee!!! hahaha good luck with everything xo J
Glad to hear your scan went well and the dildocam LOL was not required!
Sounds very interesting, I've never had any of that done. I'm sure your next one will not need to be internal either - bub will be nice and big and able to be seen easily by then.
If you don't want dildocam (or any other procedure) it's your right to ask for more info, ask for alternatives, and to just say no if you don;'t want a procedure done.
The internal scan (AKA dildocam ) is usually used in early pregnancy when it is more difficult to see the itty bitty little person - particularly if you have a retroverted (tilted backwards) uterus. It is used to get the closest image, and therefore the most detail for measurements etc, possible. After about 10 weeks there should be no reason for an internal scan.
