Unsuccessful anomaly scans, quite worried.

Hi all, I've now had four anomaly scans, the fourth with a fetal medicine consultant and none of them have been able to get the four chamber heart view. Each time baby is in the same awkward position and not moving much. I also have a low amniotic fluid index which they are saying is the reason baby isn't moving. I've now been referred for to a fetal medicine unit at another hospital. Has anyone any similar experience? I have only seen people needing a second anomaly scan and then they have all the needed measurements. They keep referring to my quad screen, which put me as low risk- so I feel they think I have an, as yet, unidentified fetal abnormality. Very worried, would appreciate some thoughts? Thank you.

I have no knowledge in this area, but I really hoping they are just being over cautious. Will be thinking of you.

I had low amniotic fluid with my first, they found it hard to take measurements. all was fine though. Don't google, I totally stressed myself out over nothing
