In I go for the much anticipated Ultra-sound.
you know the one - you have to drink a million glasses of water so your bladder is so full to near bursting. Than you lay on a table while the technician pushes and presses on your abdomen.
Click, beep, click.
Conversation about my period. how fun. She was a very nice little Asian lady. Her scrubs were full of colour. I love non-boring people.
"when was your last period?"
'ummmmm. Friday and then it stopped, but it came back last night, i think its gone again'
"oh. Can't make up its mind? how annoying. How was it?"
'Extremely painful!'
she keeps gliding the wand across my pee filled belly......
"Oh. well Kristi I have to do another examination on you"
'Yah'
"you have a tilted uterus"
'yes'
"well in order to get the pictures I need i have to do a vaginal exam"
'Huh. In my vagina?'
"yes. Thats where it is"
'um, oh'
she proceeds to tell me to pee and how she's going to leave a gown for me on the bed. "make sure it opens to the back. Remove your pants and your panties"
no shit! "i'll be back in a moment"
"make sure you lay on this" she places an absorbant pad on the bed. "just in case you are still having your period"
oh ick! this is officially sucking!!@!
Needless to say......she came back and I was laying there......she pulled out the "tool" It was like a big ridgeless dildo!
"have you ever had a Pap?"
'yes'
"well, this is Nothing like that"
'LoL!!!' I am so glad she had a sense of humour. What happend after that was unpleasant. She Covered it with KY and proceeded.
I lay there with this thing inside me....she moving it around. Click, Beep, Click.
'can you tell me if everything at least looks normal?'
"we are not allowed to talk about what we see. But I can tell you......." she move the dildo around....."there is one ovary and there's the other"
'great. they are where I last left them'
than I was done.
now my Uterus feels all huge. I feel slightly violated. At least she was a nice lady.
Has anyone else ever had an ultra-sound like that? I had a very nice long hot shower when I got home.

When I was pregnant with Brianne... in the very beginning they did an ultrasound to find out how far along I was... I went through the exact same thing!! Full bladder.... too small to see anything... pee it out and do the internal, exactly like that. I was only 6 weeks.
yeee-uckkk! I feel for you! I had lotsa yucky stuff through all my deliveries, one time a specialist was elbow deep in there trying to fish out a placenta BUT you expect that kind of thing in delivery not during an ultra sound! Brutal lady! Sorry about your yuck-o day!
ICK O RAMA!
Never experienced that fun in a bucket before - knock on wood!
oh bless your heart!
yep, I had one like that many years ago when I was miscarrying. it was none to pleasant, much like how you described....
hope the results come back good for you!!
I understand or rather I could accept this exam if there were a baby involved.......for some reason, being pregnant and giving birth is the door to giving up all your dignity.
But for - what was supposed to be - a simple, routine ultrasound!
she marked lots of stuff on the pics and took lots and lots of pictures. which could mean nothing or it could mean everything. Either way, I am glad Madonna is tomorrow to keep my mind off the results.
For now
