First scan nervousness

3 replies

Hi

I have my first scan on Monday and I am feeling really nervous about it.
The biggest part of this nervousness is that I have to drink a litre of water before hand. Currently I can not drink water or anything, drinking water makes me so nauseous and I can't keep it down.

Does anyone have any recommendations on what I can do to stop this from happening.

Thank you in advance.

Before my dating scan I drank orange squash and tea and didn't have any problems.

I drank a lot of caffeine free diet coke before mine! It is just liquid they need in your bladder to assist the scan.

I will try fizzy juice and tea. It seems to be any juice or liquid I drink just doesn't stay down.
