stomach tenderness following 20wk scan

I have just had my 20 week scan which was very pain, the radiographer applied lots of pressure so it was very uncomfortable, since then I have had tummy tenderness at the base of my bump, has this happened to anyone else?

hmmm i no that feeling very well...

only thing i can say is the same thing my midwife told me....if your slightly overweight then they tend to need to press a bit firmer on your stomach to get a clearer picture.

either that or your bump is just very sensitive to being poked and prodded!!

hope this helps
