Anyone told specific directions for anatomy scan? (full bladder/etc?)

Question

Anatomy scan in 10 days and my ob didn’t give me any directions... second pregnancy and I totally don’t remember what I was told the first time.
I’m still going to message my ob and ask, but I was wondering what some of you ladies were told?

Answer

Nope

Answer

Not for my anatomy scan, no. She actually had me empty my bladder partway through the scan to try to get baby to move over a bit.

Answer

I didnt need a full bladder for mine. They actually let me use the bathroom right before since they knew they would be pressing on my stomach/bladder. I had my Yetti cup with ice water just in case I needed to sip something cold to get baby boy to move.

Answer

I just needed to have a full bladder for both of mine. I drank some orange juice right before so baby would be active to find out the sex.

Answer

Drink 1 and a half pints of water 1 hour before your scan, and do not empty your bladder until after your scan. That’s all I’ve been told
