10 week ultrasound

Is it better to have my bladder full or empty for my 10 week u/s?

Re: 10 week ultrasound

  • My 10wk was still internal so they had me pee first!

  • My 7 week was first external then internal so I'd say go with full bladder and then see.
  • Since it is my 2nd, they wanted me to have a full bladder. I had an external ultrasound, which made me happy.

    When it doubt, have a full bladder. If you are wrong, it is easy to fix. lol

  • For all my external u/s I needed a full bladder.  For all my vag u/s I needed empty bladder.

    2nd ectopic resulted in loss of tube. HSG revealed remaining tube is "severely torqued".

  • Thanks. Guess I'll go full and if they need me to empty it I can Smile
  • They had me go on a full bladder (which I thought was cruelty to pregnant women b/c I could barely hold it in!) and when nothing good came up on the external U/S they let me release my bladder and did an internal.  So you can try that option or call and they'll let you know.
