Seizure like movements/convulsions during scan? Worried.

[Roopachoo]

I had my nuchal scan today and the baby was VERY active. We were in there for about 15-20 minutes and the baby kept making almost seizure like movements, arching it's back in what looked almost like involuntary convulsions.

The sonographer said they were definitely not hiccups, and they most certainly did not look like hiccups. The movements just looked very disturbing and unnatural. The sonographer said that she had seen something like this before and not to worry. We are worried.

Any one else experienced this? I'm going to UCH next week to hopefully get some answers.

(sorry- have posted also in pregnancy forum)

If it was me, and the sonographer wasn't concerned, and did not refer it, I would not worry.

Go and have a look at some other scans on you tube, and see how their movements compare ?? Just an idea.
