Am I overreacting?

Today I had my anatomy scan and I found out what I was having. After we were done, the tech told me to go to the waiting room and she'll bring me my pictures. I thought she was going to print them out, but she gave me a CD instead. I went home and looked at the pictures and noticed that I didn't get a profile shot or a picture showing that my baby's a girl. I know anatomy scans aren't really for you to just see your baby, but I am so disappointed. IDK what I am supposed to do with a picture of my cervix and of just the baby's spine. I've been down all day because I don't have any good pictures to share with my family.

Awww, I feel for all the ladies that don't get a ton of ultrasounds. I've had to have mfm doctor for my last 3 pregnancies. So, even with this one I get scans every two weeks. Last week, is the first time I didn't get pictures and it was like it was a surprise to my husband. Lol

You're lucky you even got pictures at your anatomy scan. I literally stared at the ceiling for an hour while hubby got to see everything. I was so disappointed.

I do not think that you are overreacting. The same thing happened to me my last pregnancy. I did not get a profile or the one revealing her gender. All I got was a pic of my baby's hand. I wanted to get an elective scan and pay out of pocket for it but I didn't have the money at the time. Until this day I still wish that I could have gotten an elective scan and my baby is now 1. If you have the money I would strongly suggest that you get one!

I am a high risk pregnancy so I've had about 7 scans at 24 weeks but maybe you can have a 3d/4d sonogram from a facility specializing in doing non diagnostic sonograms.

You'll get more. My gender scan wasn't that great either my 12 week one was way better. The baby wasn't in a good position for a profile so I just have a in between the legs pic which wasn't that clear.

We also got a CD, but our images were about the opposite! We got a couple profiles, a foot, legs, etc. I would have rather liked to see some of the internal anatomy because I was most concerned with seeing that baby is actually healthy. My whole ultrasound/follow up appt was disappointing because I did not get to watch any part of the fetal anatomy measurements, and I barely got any comments out of the dr. He shoved a copy of the report in my face and said here, you can have this. The hospital I go to refuses to let the expectant mothers see that part and my husband wasn't even allowed in the room. He had to occupy our 2yo for over an hour while they did the measurements. Then they came in at the end and we all got to see baby's face, while body, and such on the screen for about 5 minutes. So while my experience may have slightly differed from yours, it was also very disappointing!

Maybe she saw it and when she went to snap the picture the baby moved. You could always set up an appointment to get a gender package at a sonogram place.

Same thing just happened to me.

I could barely see because I was laying down but SO saw all the good stuff. They only do 2 ultrasounds where I am. I'm still in a funk but I might get an elective ultrasound done.

It does suck but try not to worry about it too much. Hopefully you will get another ultra sound soon and before you know it your baby will be in your hands and you won't be able to put down your camera!

I had something similar happen. To be honest it wasn't really the technicians fault, the baby was in a really crappy position for pictures. But I am still disappointed with what I was given for the money. Like, just tell me they sucked. I would have passed on them and done it at my follow up ultrasound. I'm not buying another cd so oh well. I think I have one good one of a hand. That's it ☹️

Oh that's so disappointing! You didn't even see it on the screen? I had to specifically ask for a print out of the potty shot--she said it's not standard to give them out. But it's obvious to get a profile a least, especially if they go through the trouble of making a CD for you! Good grief!
