I got back my ultrasound pics this morning from my 20week scan and i'm so dissapointed. There isn't even one picture of the baby!! All I can see by the description on them is heart/leg bones/placenta etc.
I didn't get a "nice" picture of DD either with her ultrasound and I didn't even get one "nice" pic of this baby!
I see everyone elses ultrasounds and they all nice pictures and can see an actual baby laying there. I don't even have that! I can't see hands/feet anything!!
I'm so dissapointed. I know all is healthy with bubs but i was looking forward to it.
Oh sorry to hear that Jen.... I think it depends a lot on the skill of the ultrasound operator. I got beautiful pics at my 12 and 20 week u/s, but I was going to my ob regularly who had a whizbang ultrasound machine and do you think he could even take one decent photo?? I think that the operators at the us place were just so good that they could hit print at exactly the right moment. Sorry you didn't get nice pics. Did I see you are looking for an ob? You might get lucky and find an ob who uses us and takes a decent us picture.
Hope you got a good look at your new little person and maybe even found out if it is a boy or a girl!
We didn't get a very good 20 week ultrasound of DS either - just a tiny flimsy paper printout, and cause he was in an awkward position you couldn't make much out.
Have you looked into getting a 3D/4D scan done? I don't know much about them personally, but the pictures from them are amazing! You can get video done too I think?
That's a real shame. I know this doesn't help much but sometimes sonographers are too busy with all the measurements and just doing their job that they forget that it's really exciting for you. I found that I had to ask mine for pics otherwise I wouldn't have got any. Like you said though, at least your little one is healthy and before long you be looking at the real thing. Sending you hugs. I would feel exactly the same way.... Is there any way you could get another scan a little way down the track?
It sucks doesn't it. We didn't get any good pictures at DD's 20 week ultrasound either. I had good ones of DS and wanted DD to have good ones to look at when she got older as well so I went and got a 3D scan done at 30 weeks and got some great pictures. I hope you can have another scan or a 3D one to get some good pics.
I know how you feel, I got a crap picture at my 20 week scan that came out half crinkled because it got jammed in their printer! I'm thinking about having the 4D scan but I think its a little expensive?
Dissapointed :(
