BIG ultrasound day...what should I expect???

Happy Tuesday Ladies:

I am super excited today because I have my big 20 week ultrasound!  And besides, catching a glimpse of my beautiful growing baby I am not sure what else to expect.  How long is the appointment?  What questions should I ask?  Will I get slighted on cool pictures if we're not learning the baby's gender until delivery?

Thanks:)

    Its about 30-40 mins depending if your LO cooperates.

    They will do a TON of measurements. show you LO's organs, hearts, kidneys, liver etc. Measure babies head. and find out the sex if you want.

    and no you will get some cute profile shots as long as your LO is in the right spot.

    not sure what to expect other than goop in your belly button (saw a post about it yesterday) so bring a q-tip to dig it out

    The letter they gave said to expect to be there for about an hour, but I was so into the appointment that I honestly don't know how long we were there. They first showed us the gender, yay, and then she did all the measurements and pics that they needed. She also got some cute pics for us too. Gender shot, full baby (or what would fit in the camera), feet, and arm pics.
