The lies we tell to get ultra sounds
Which lies have you told (or know that someone else told) to get an ultra sound during an appt?

I haven't, but I have been thinking of things lately, since I was just told that I don't get any more

See it just dawned on me that I don't think I get anymore...another 124 days seems like a VERY long time to wait to see my man again.

Re: The lies we tell to get ultra sounds
Well...I kind of told the ER doctor that I was having more cramping than I was to get to an ultrasound faster. I felt a little guilty but in all fairness I sat in an ER for 5 hours bleeding without them doing anything. I was so upset that I was possibly miscarrying and here they were, not caring. At the mention of some cramping they “miraculously” got me in to the room…I’m happy I did it, it put my mind at ease!

My DH said no at first too - then I told him I would sabve up my "allowance" money for the sono (I give myself an allowance from my pay each time I get pain), so then he gave in and agreed - and in the end he was SOOO happy we had it done.

Re: The lies we tell to get ultra sounds
I wonder what the reason is...
My doctor said I'd get one at 36 weeks to check on the position & size of the baby... How do they do that otherwise without a sono?

That's correct. I had a final sono about 4 weeks before each of my kids were born.

Some drs do it and some dont from what I know. My OB normally wouldnt do it but she said since Im measuring ahead, they would do one. It makes sense for everyone to have it done IMO though

Re: The lies we tell to get ultra sounds
My Dr. knows I am paranois and she said to put my mind at ease I can have another level II she gave me the papers but I have not decided if I shold just leave well enough alone at this point.

Re: The lies we tell to get ultra sounds
at 30 weeks when I was supposed to be counting kicks....I told them she was a C/D and no where near an A.
They did a quick sono to make sure fluid levels were ok and that she was not in distress. I also got a non stress test
