Please post some foods and drinks to get the baby moving.
My friend had her level 2 and she she said the baby wasn't cooperating at all and she has to go back.
I go for mine in three weeks and they I have no more personal days left to come back.
I heard if you drink OJ and eat really sugary things the baby moves a lot. Is that true?
The funny things is that I was told by a 3D/4D place not to eat for 2-3 hours before. When you are hungry, the baby moves around more.

I actually brought some fruit snacks with me and ate them in the waiting room. I got the ones made with real fruit from Target. Yummy and they got him going

There's nothing that you can do that will guarantee that the baby will give you a good shot. The first time I went I didn't eat anything and the baby wouldn't move at all. The second time I had oj and the baby was moving, but she wouldn't open her legs. We finally got a good shot on try #3

All the books and websites reccommend a cold glass of OJ. The cold and the sugar will get them moving. I filled a small water bottle with some OJ and drank it while I waited to be seen.

I've had two level II so far, the first time I drank nothing the baby was actually too active to get a good enough imagine. The last time I drank oj and the baby was sound asleep and we couldn't see. I would say its just luck.

They gave me a cookie at the actual sono. That and getting up & going to pee worked for me.
I had juice before, but this kid never moves much.

Re: Please post some foods and drinks to get the baby moving.
They have OJ, coffee, and snacks at the place where I get sonos.
I would bring something with me but I don't know that you necessarily need to drink/eat it beforehand.
I had an oatmeal and coffee before and the baby was moving too much.

Re: Please post some foods and drinks to get the baby moving.
I had to go back a second time for my Level II - the tech told me to drink ice water before coming in. I've also heard great things about orange juice!

Re: Please post some foods and drinks to get the baby moving.
My Girlfriend said one of the nurses she works with told her to really get him moving to drink a hawaiian punch and eat a single serving bag of skittles!
 but she said it works like a charm.
(It would probably also work in place of the glucose drink for the glucose tolerance test! )
