Sugary drink before scan

When I had mine they told me to drink lucozade
Orange juice has more sugar than lucozade and at least has some traces of good stuff :)
I was in the same boat! Wasn’t sure what to go for as I’ve cut out caffeine completely. I went for apple juice and it worked. In fact, it worked so well that the baby was somersaulting and it’s actually upside down in my scan photos 😂
@Hannah mine did the same, looked like she'd broken her bloody neck the position she'd rolled into
I heard orange juice is best too!
@Jessica 😂 haha bless her! I was so surprised when I saw mine was upside down. I panicked for a second but the sonographer didn’t seem worried, so I figured it must be fine 🤷♀️
@Hannah they move around so much in the first 16 weeks it's super normal
@Jessica That makes sense as there’s so much space at that stage but I’m yet to see anyone else’s 12 week scan where their baby’s upside down 🙃 Surely you’d think that’d be more common?! 🤷♀️
Mine was upside down at some point as well - that's pretty normal!
Have a glass of juice xx
