20 week scan tips

At my 12 week scan, little bean was a stubborn little thing (wonder where they get that from 😂) and was sleeping/kept turning it's back on us.
I'm just looking for some tips on how to possibly wake them up, what to eat/drink etc. My scan isn't until 1400 today.
I have no clue when baby is usually awake (last night was the first time i think i felt quickening!)

Cold water helps. Also jiggle about a bit I had to stick my bum in the air at my scan to move the wee one. 😂

My tip would be to tell work not to expect you back in after the scan.... my 20 week scan took on and off 3 hours as I kept having to walk and jiggle to wake up naughty babe and get them in the right position. So my tips is to get full afternoon off work and take comfy shoes in case you end up doing laps of the hospital :)))
