Shooting pain after Big U/S?

I had my big U/s yesterday, and the tech had a hard time visualizing some of the structures (for which we have to do a re-do at 4 week appointment).  She pressed pretty hard for a while as she tried to get the views she was looking for.

Since the U/S, I have had shooting pain in my right side, just above the hip, in the area she was pressing. I thought it was gone when I got up this morning, but it has slowly reared it's ugly head. I didn't have pain with the other two U/S, but the baby was clearly not hiding then. It is making movement/walking difficult.

Anyone else experience this? How long did it last?

Re: Shooting pain after Big U/S?

  • sounds like the pain I kept getting when my belly hit a growth spurt.  It may just coincidence that it was after your u/s.  Try drinking some water & prop your feet up if possible.  I had that pain at 20 weeks as well, and like 3 days later my belly had popped.  Call your dr. if you are concerned though.

  • i had a lot of pain after my u/s. the tech pushed so hard that i was bruised all over inside. it took at leats4 days to go away, so that with my growing pains was hard. if you are not leaking or bleeding you are probably fine. if the pain persists ask your doc
