What did you do before your a/s?

So with my baby's history I'm nervous about not getting the money shot, lol.  We had a stubborn one at the NT scan and couldn't get the measurements.

 Did you drink orange juice or caffine?  Any tips to get the baby moving around?!

  • I drank OJ. It definitely got her moving. :)

  • I drank OJ too and he was moving around!  I couldn't tell if the tech was happy or annoyed though, lol

  • I drank one glass of orange juice and two waters and baby was moving his arms, legs (kicking my full bladder) and head like crazy, but wasn't doing any rolls.  We still got a good shot of his junk, and one very sloppy profile.  Not really the money shot (thought I guess, technically the one of his junk was) but oh well, It made me super happy to see him dancing this morning that I don't care about the pics now!

  • I exercised. Now that I think about it...probably silly to do that. I think I just rocked it to sleep. Okay...rocked her to sleep. Regardless, tech and doc were pretty sure we're having a girl!
  • My kid is the queen of being a PITA for u/s.

    Took 3 times to get the NT. She was doing a face plant for the A/S, BUT was a$$ up and therefore gave us the money shot as soon as the tech put the wand down.

    I drank 16OZ of water and some OJ. I ended up having to empty my bladder b/c I was squishing her head with it full :) 

  • I drank some OJ and baby was active for sure!  In fact we had to back today, a week later to get some more pics we needed of the face that we couldn't get with him rolling around last week!

  • I had a glass of orange juice with breakfast and snacked on skittles waiting to go back for an 11:30 appt. Baby girl was more awake than the NT scan where she did not move at all till she got mad from all the prodding after 45 mins.

  • I drank OJ and water, which got him moving around on the way to the appointment, but by the time we got back there for the ultrasound, he was pretty mellow. But at least he was considerate enough to have his legs spread.

    They also suggested no caffeine, like tea, coffee or soda before hand.

  • I had a small glass of OJ and she was moving around but not too bad for the tech to get the shots she needed.  During my NT scan my LO didn't move at all even after all the jumping, coughing, and belly moving the technician had me do.  So glad she was awake and ready to show us what she was.
