anatomy scan hurt

so... i contemplated on asking this but now i’m so curious if others experienced it as well!

at my 20w anatomy scan the ultrasound tech was doing his job but it was the most painful thing i’ve experienced so far at the drs office. i had to stop him halfway through to take a “bathroom” break because i couldn’t handle the pain. it felt like he was pushing down SO hard. it was awful! i couldn’t even focus on watching my baby on screen because i was in near tears.

has anyone else experienced this ???
