Cell Phone/FaceTime during NT scan

lindsay.eh

Hey everyone, my 12 week scan is on Monday, and my husband is away. Has anyone been allowed to facetime/be on their cell phone during their scan?

My H can't come to our scan today.  So I was just going to ask if I could take a little video for him.  He loves the U/S appointments and is bummed to miss it.

I was allowed to do this at my first U/S in 2010 and then not allowed in 2012.  Varies by doctor.

There was a huge sign in the room I had mine done in that said absolutely no cell phones for pictures or video.

My husband was gone for my dating scan, we were told absolutely no cell phones in the u/s room. However at the last minute the tech let me take a video when I asked, and I got to show him when he got home from training. 

By an awesome stroke of luck it looks like he'll be gone again for the 20 week ultrasound, if that's the case I'll take another video, or at least ask.

my OB office gives you a CD with a little video on it. and printed pics. 

my H came to a lot of appts with our first son. he hasn't come to any with this PG which is fine. we both work FT and there is a toddler to care for. I just show him the pics when I get home.

My private OB lets you FT under certain circumstances. 
The place I have to go for the NT scan won't. You should call and ask their policy.

When I got my scan they also gave me a disc with video of the baby moving on it.

SO will be missing the Sept., Nov. and Jan appointments, so I will definitely be asking my OB about FT. (She was my Dr for DD, but then we moved to Boston for 3 years and are now moving back home). FT wasn't necessary last time because SO was there for all the appointments, but this time around it'll be different.

So jealous of the ones who get a CD with video!! I asked my U/S tech if I could take a video for my mom because she's never seen an ultrasound.  She was super nice.  She said she's not supposed to let us but she did and she gave us extra pictures and told us to hide those from the staff.
