Dont be worried! i had EXACTLY the same thing happen to me. I went in for my 20 week scan and they couldnt get pics of her heart and even her spine and told me that im going to have to come back in a few weeks to het a better look coz bub will be bigger. I went back 2 weeks later and even tho she was STILL un co operative we were able to get some good pics and there is absalutley NOTHING wrong with her heart. HTH. Im 1000000% sure ur bub is just fine!!

Try not to stress. They tell you if they think there's a problem. If they just said they couldn't get a good look it means exactly that. I had two abnormal scans during my pregnancy and both times both the sonographer and the doctor told me what looked abnormal.

At my 19 weeks scan they couldnt see the brain. Ihad to go back at 21 weeks and that time they could see the brain...but not the heart....

But on a good note they could hear the HB and it was because bub was laying funny and the head dr checked it all out and said it was fine.

Dont stress about it hun...repeat scans are common.

I had the same thing happen at the 20 week scan of DS1, I had to go back a week later because they couldn't measure some parts (I can't remember what now, it was so long ago!) because he was sleeping and wouldn't change positions. Everything was absolutely fine and I'm sure your bub is too

They are supposed to check EVERYTHING, so if they, cant, they want you back!!

At Little Girls we couldn't see her heart either, and they asked me to come back. They bought in another sonographer, ( for a cleft check) and she moved, so we got good heart pics, so no repeat scan neccessary.

Its routine hon, I bet all is good.

Thanks so much - I feel much better now. I'll try really hard to stop worrying now, and just look forward to seeing our little boy again!

I had to go for a 2nd scan for the heart cause DD had her arms crossed against her chest.. Everything was fine. I am sure they would have told you if there were any concerns.. as you said, enjoy getting an extra scan and seeing you little man again!!
