    You would think people who want to do those kinds of jobs would embrace their work and go gently, wouldn't you? Otherwise do something else.

    my sister went in for her first ever scan at 6w to check how the baby was going as she was bleeding. The tech said she couldn't see anything. So my sister started crying because she feared a MC. The tech said that there is no use crying about it - its either too early to see or its a MC, and if its a MC the crying won't help!!! Turns out it was a ectopic pregnancy and she lost the tube.

    Luckily I wasn't there with her! The lady would of gotten a serve from me

    We got a rude ***** in my first pregnancy, it was our morphology scan, we had to actually ask for her to let us see the scan ("oh, normally I just do te scan myself, you don't have to see me do measurements" ) and when we asked if she could see the sex she just said "it's better if it's a surprise, it just takes the fun out of it". Um, no it doesn't, having a baby is exciting regardless! She ended up telling us, but she was so rude about it.

    I know that theys ee it every day and it's probably not exciting for them and bad days and all that but seriously, we were seeing our baby! You'd think she'd realise it was exciting for us and not just a ho-hum part of her day! That was at our local hospital. We went private for our scans at QDI this time, ended up having to pay for all of them, but we have had really wonderful experiences.
