HOW TO PREPARE FOR YOUR PREGNANCY ULTRASOUND ~ XUSCANADA ULTRASOUND CLINIC TORONTO

1. YOU CAN TAKE THIS EXAM WITHOUT FASTING (EAT ALL MEALS AS USUAL ON THE DAY OF THE EXAM)

2. USE ALL PRESCRIPTION MEDICINES AS DIRECTED.

3. ONE HOUR BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT, CONSUME 32 OUNCES OF LIQUID (WATER, JUICE, OR SODA) WITHIN 15 MINUTES.

4. DON'T EMPTY YOUR BLADDER BEFORE THE EXAM (BLADDER MUST BE FULL)

HOWEVER, THERE IS NO PARTICULAR PREPARATION NEEDED FOR AN ULTRASOUND. THESE ACTIONS CAN AID IN OUR OR OTHER DOCTORS' ABILITY TO SEE YOUR BABY MORE CLEARLY ON THE ULTRASOUND. FOR ABDOMINAL ULTRASOUNDS, YOU COULD BE REQUESTED TO CHANGE INTO A HOSPITAL GOWN, BUT THIS ISN'T TYPICALLY NECESSARY.
