I just had my anatomy scan done *UPDATE*

We already knew the gender... however. She took LOTS of pictures initially. Than said “I have to send these to radiology quick, I’ll see if she needs anymore”.. I’m like.. ohh .. okay. She comes back about 7 minutes later and says “we need more pictures” so I lay back down, and again patiently sit while she takes about 30 more images. Mainly of baby’s head... I think.. hmm that’s weird... she steps out again and comes back needing MORE images (in total they took over 100 images).. I seen babies heart beating, so I know that’s not the issue. Baby is moving, okay great! But wtf. Throughout the ENTIRE ultrasound the tech was bubbly, sweet, chit chatting about baby, showing me images. Until she was sent back in the 3rd time. Then she was awkward, dropped the “wand”, dripped the gel down my side, stuttering, just.. completely uncomfortable. When she left after that (I was on the bed behind the curtain still, in case the radiologist possibly wanted MORE pictures. She briefly opened the door “your dr will have the results by this afternoon. Have a good day” .

I’m like “wait, I didn’t even get a picture” ... to my surprise she says “sorry, we can’t give you one today”.... what? Why the fuck not?...

then she disappeared. I cleaned myself up, gathered my belongings and walked out of the room. I asked another tech “do you guys not give images at the anatomy scan” to which she replies “yes of course we do” I said oh.. ok.. well I didn’t get one today. And I don’t know the name of the tech. She says oh I’ll find out. Walks away, finds tech doing someone else’s ultrasound. Comes back says “oh sorry she already logged off, so the images are gone... but next time”.

Wtf? So now I’m like... k ? What’s wrong with my baby’s head? Why can’t I have a picture? And what did she see that caused her demeanour to change so drastically?

Literally left there so confused, upset, and with a million questions 😭

Apparently I’ll hear from my OB this afternoon. Hoping it’s nothing terrible 😭😭😭

For all those wondering... I have heard NOTHING.. my heart is aching because I’m scared but my mind is trying to stay positive! Calling the OB tomorrow first thing in the morning because I need some type of answer.. thank you to those praying, I promise I will update when I have news good or bad. I won’t leave you girls hanging 💜💚💙

UPDATE! They finally called, unfortunately I was wrong. About the organ. It was not the head/brain like I’d originally thought.

The baby’s heart is not showing any “output” ... it could be something as simple as he wouldn’t move or position himself correctly to get the necessary images, or it could be an actual cardiac problem. I’m going Monday for another scan, and Tuesday to see the OB for results! 💙

Praying it was just baby being stubborn 😭
