Aww she's totally lush EA

Thinking back the heartbeat goes right, cos the heartbeat sounds like a horse gallopping (well to me it did lol)

How long did it last? how much did you drink and how long before???

Yeah i had another listen with the doppler this morning and thought it sounded more like a horse (but dont tell OH lol)

Umm, the first bit was about 15-20mins, i got there super early though, but my appointment wasn't the first, the woman before me didn't show up though so i did get to go in first. Then she sent me out to get the baby to move posistion, Then spent about 10mins looking for the the 2nd half of the heart or something, then found it suddenly.

I drank about 3/4 of a 1 litre robinsons juice bottle, but she said i could empty my bladder after the first bit of the scan and have a walk around and when i went back in she could still see baby easily.

I started drinking at 7:49am, but only small bits at a time cause it was making me feel sick.
