thanks for all the replies. Tootie - my gyno told me YEARS ago, that I have a retroverted uterus (retro ute.. i like that, lol). I don't know if that can change (read on some website something about being able to move it manually .. which sounded freaky), but as far as I know, I should still have the retroverted uterus... so it sounds like I will have to have a TV one.
I don't think I'm really scared of a TV - I believe that same gyno did one years ago (it kinda looked like an electric toothbrush (without the toothbrush part, just size wise I mean) with a round blob on top?) - no idea what he was looking for, but since I trust that guy 100% I wasn't worried. (damn it that he's in Germany and about to retire).
The only thing that worries me a bit is that I am going to this sterile radiology place, will have a radiologist I have never seen in my life and he will do it.. which is just a bit weird ('hi stranger, why don't you go and put that stick in my vagina'). Also not knowing what to expect always makes me really uncomfortable (and I don't want to be the woman who strips off all her clothes and he/she goes "what are you doing" or vice versa)
Have no idea what to expect but am very happy to have Monkey there with me (who will be just as clueless - or even more - than me)
Kelly - watching my best friend's video of her u/s when I visited her in NZ (her bubba is now 3 months) totally freaked me out, because the baby actually looked like it was in pain. It kept on trying to move away from it and kept on raising its arms like the u/s was hurting its ears or eyes. It totally turned me against too many u/s, especially at a later stage when the neurons have developed. It was really scary, so I can relate.
Pee, thanks for making it sound less scary - I hope I know what to expect a bit more now and will relax (and maybe be able to insert it myself).
