First u/s tomorrow!

I am so nervous and excited. I have a question for the plus sized mamas out there who had an 8-9 week u/s.
I was told to have a full bladder so I read online that means they will be doing a transabdominal ultrasound. I carry most of my weight/belly fat in the lower abdomen area. I am afraid that this will interfere with the ultrasound. I have read that sometimes this happens with larger mamas and they have to switch to a transvaginal ultrasound. I just don't know if I can handle them having trouble finding baby. I'm not even sure if they have the abilities to do a transvaginal u/s at my OB office (surely they do?). Any wisdom from someone who may have been there before?
I will be sure to post tomorrow evening and let you all know how it goes!

Re: First u/s tomorrow!
Ahh I'm sure its going to go wonderfully!! I've only had transvaginal ultrasounds so i'm no help with that, but i'm sure they have that capability at your doctors office.

FYI - I'm not plus-sized, but I've had to have full bladders for all T/V and for my NT Scan that was T/A at 13w3d. My a/s at 18w2d, I didn't need a full bladder.

DS delivered naturally at 41w6d on 4/18/14
Good Luck! I can't wait to hear how it goes!
My 8 week was a t/v. Didn't have a t/a until my A/S at 20 weeks.
They didn't say anything about my bladder being full for the t/v. Actually I remember peeing before this ultrasound. For the A/S I had to have a full bladder. I guess it helps them see your cervix better. After she got the pics she needed, I was able to use the bathroom and then she got everything else.
After awhile, you just want to be with the one who makes you laugh. - Mr. Big
