Too fat?

Question

I'm having my anomaly scan this afternoon and I've read that too much belly fat can make it difficult to see and may not be able to complete the scan. I'm nervous I'm too fat for my scan. I'm 18+2. 151lbs and 5'4". Do you think it'll be fine? Experiences wanted!

I'm 297lb and my OB said that at 14wk we should be able to hear the heartbeat no problem... And I carry all my weight in the front as well... I'm all belly. I wish some of it would slink around to my hips and butt 😂😂

Answer

lol my bump is bigger than yours, and they saw him just fine. I even asked her while she was doing it if the real big women have problems with being able to see the kid through all the fat, she said no the camera is high tech now
