Q: Back From Hospital

I just got back from the hospital....It went ok I guess? I had to drink so much water ...I throwed up just water right in the hallway of the hospital Embarassed which sucked but I still had a full bladder and didnt have to wait long to take the ultrasound. I didnt get any results ((to see if I had the amniotic band syndrome)) I have to wait a couple of days for my doctor from the clinic to call me with results. They did see that the baby was moving, heart was beating, they just couldnt make out all of the organs yet. The lady said that from the glimpse that she got the baby was a girl :d she told me not to start painting walls pink or anything she said if they want me to come back in a couple of weeks that she'll be able to tell me definately what it is. They gave me this x-ray poster of the baby its cool I can really make out what the babys face looks like.. So now I just have to wait and see what the results were Confused

I'm glad everything went fine. Why couldn't they tell you the results?

Was it just an u/s tech who did it? They can't tell you any results because they aren't trained to interpret the ultrasounds medically, only anatomically.

Ok I am a little confused I thought amniotic band syndrome was something that effected the limbs and stuff like that, it can hurt organs too? Cuz if it was just a matter of physical attributes why couldnt they tell you, but if it can effect internal stuff too I kinda understand but they did a x ray.

I think because it hurts them slowly over time, there probably wouldn't be any effect yet, so it would be a question of diagnosing the syndrome right now, not evaluating any effects that have already occurred. It makes sense. If an u/s tech tells you wrong, people would start suing for stress and pain and suffering and all kinds of stuff!

Well from what I have gone and read on the net it seems that its pretty noticeable, but sometimes they misdiagnose it early and nothing is wrong, so it seems to me that if something was completely out of whack they would be able to see it right away.
