What to eat and drink before anatomy ultrasound?

Question

I’m a ftm and they didn’t really give many details on what to do. They said drink 32 oz of sweet fluid at least 1 hour before the ultrasound and not to eat any heavy meals. What did you eat and drink before? It’ll be lunch time for me 😬

Answer

I wasn’t told anything about eating, I ate whatever. But where I am they specifically say drink 1L of water, not just any fluid.

Answer

I wasn’t told anything about eating or drinking. I also wasn’t told to have a full bladder. And when I signed in for my ultrasound they showed me where the bathroom was just in case I needed to go while I waited.

Answer

I was told for my private scan to eat a slice of cake n have a coffee before my scan so baby would be active so we could find out gender 😂
That's the only time they have told me to eat specifically as usually it doesn't matter. However, go with a full bladder as it helps push baby out of uterus. Drink about an hour before ur appt so it has time to go into bladder x
