Pain after anatomy scan

hajskihajski
in June 2011 Moms
I have terrible discomfort right now.  Had my anatomy scan today and I am so sore.  I cannot get comfortable in any position. The tech had to "dig" around my guts to get some good shots, but baby wasn't very cooperative. Ugh!!  So happy to see our baby girl, but now I am feeling crabby and in pain. Is this normal? Anyone else feel like this after their scan?

    Is it just feeling tender where the tech was pushing in or like cramping? I haven't had the anatomy scan with this pg yet but was in for an u/s the other day and she had to push in too. No lingering pain afterwards though. Big hugs, hope it goes away soon. Put your feet up and relax.

    After my last one I was a little sore. It was pretty long and they were really pushing hard.

    No cramps. Just feels like I was punched one hundred times. The tech had to push pretty hard at the end and it lasted a long time because she had a tough time getting the right shots. Apparently I have a stubborn little girl. Lol!

    I had a little bit of lingering pain.  They pushed on my abdomen, too, and I was pretty crampy for the rest of the day.

    My baby was covering her face with her arms during the u/s and the tech pushed all over my belly to try to get her to rotate - which she wouldn't do and now we're having a repeat u/s at my next appt. My stomach felt very tender the next day (kind of like it had bruises, but there wasn't anything visible).

    I had the same thing - my belly was black and blue the next day from them pushing so hard to get the right shots (the 4 chambers of the heart were especially challenging). The day of, and the following day I was super tender, but after that it went away. Hang in there!

    I was pretty tender, like I had a bruise but there wasn't one there. I assumed it was from all the pushing and proding the tech has to do.
