He was mesmerized. </p> <p>My mom came with me for one for DD2 because I had a cyst and DH couldn't get off work and I was nervous, she was super excited to see her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2539126 Mon, 02 May 2016 15:45:08 +0000 lovehoneybee 2539126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My MIL came to the anatomy scan for #1 and my mom came to a random one for #2 (I got one monthly, and it was one of the later ones). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2539117 Mon, 02 May 2016 15:35:49 +0000 Paddington10 2539117@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom came to one of them with my first. They printed a photo and the baby looked GHOULISH! It was a horrible 3D photo and he honestly looked like Chuckie. HAHA! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2538623 Mon, 02 May 2016 09:03:33 +0000 snowjewelz 2538623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope; at the time my parents lived lie 40 min away. DH went to most of them anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2538186 Sun, 01 May 2016 14:35:15 +0000 winniebee 2538186@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom came to a growth scan with me for my first. I was in bed rest and needed a ride, and my husband couldn't get out of work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2538075 Sun, 01 May 2016 12:35:39 +0000 lamariniere 2538075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. Neither set of parents lived close to us. Maybe if my own mother had been alive and nearby, I would have considered it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2538068 Sun, 01 May 2016 12:13:59 +0000 catlady 2538068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. We haven't had good luck with pregnancies and we generally find out our bad news during ultrasounds. I wouldn't want anyone except DH to go with me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2538051 Sun, 01 May 2016 11:13:00 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2538051@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. DH and I surprised our moms and took them to an elective scan. We all found out the sex of DD together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2538050 Sun, 01 May 2016 11:12:48 +0000 MrsKRB 2538050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, my mom flew in for the anatomy scan. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2538048 Sun, 01 May 2016 11:04:47 +0000 caterw 2538048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No- I show them the pictures but I like to do all the medical stuff with just my husband. I don't want them in Labor and Delivery either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2538013 Sun, 01 May 2016 09:10:10 +0000 looch 2538013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, to the elective 3d one, because I was visiting. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2538003 Sun, 01 May 2016 08:33:49 +0000 yoursilverlining 2538003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, my mom and dad came to the gender reveal scan. It was cool - they had never seen modern ultrasounds and the tech spent so much time with us, going over each part of LO and answering all their questions. It was a good bonding experience :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2538001 Sun, 01 May 2016 08:28:56 +0000 mfa_lady 2538001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dad came with me to one at 24 weeks because my husband was out of town. DD had been so balled up at our anatomy scan so they hadn't gotten good images of her heart. We went back at 24 weeks and I wanted someone with me in case something was wrong. My dad was a riot! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2538000 Sun, 01 May 2016 08:24:05 +0000 Mrs D 2538000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH couldn't make it to the anatomy scan w DD2...so I invited my mom - she loved it!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2537992 Sun, 01 May 2016 07:55:47 +0000 MOMTOLITTLEB 2537992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I invited both moms to one of them and they weren't interested! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2537990 Sun, 01 May 2016 07:52:41 +0000 DesertDreams88 2537990@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My parents are long distance so when I flew home for my baby shower at 26 weeks, we did a 3d ultrasound. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2537935 Sat, 30 Apr 2016 23:34:51 +0000 Torchwood 2537935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom wanted to, but it kind of weirded me out. Then ultrasounds became hugely stressful, not fun, so I really didn't want anyone else there but DH. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2537932 Sat, 30 Apr 2016 23:25:11 +0000 simplyfelicity 2537932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, but I totally would if I needed to </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2537929 Sat, 30 Apr 2016 23:19:05 +0000 PinkElephant 2537929@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My Inlaws took DH and I to a recreational ultrasound with DD2 so we could find out that she was a girl when we were visiting them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2537905 Sat, 30 Apr 2016 21:52:36 +0000 Mrs. Goose 2537905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, my final overdue ultrasounds x2 or 4 because I couldn't really drive myself at that point and my husband couldn't come. I took a friend with me to a 24 week one because my husband couldn't come and it was nice to share it with her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2537893 Sat, 30 Apr 2016 21:39:12 +0000 youboots 2537893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes but I had GD and lots of ultrasounds and appointments. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2537891 Sat, 30 Apr 2016 21:37:03 +0000 Beth24 2537891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep my mom came to the anatomy scan and was amazed at the technology! So happy she was there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2537874 Sat, 30 Apr 2016 21:03:14 +0000 Alba4 2537874@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, my mom took me to my 16 week appointment. She too was amazed by the ultrasound technology! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2537873 Sat, 30 Apr 2016 21:03:04 +0000 jhd 2537873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We invited my mom and MIL to our anatomy scan. They were absolutely thrilled to be there. I'm so glad we included them. My mom also came to an additional ultrasound with me when DH couldn't be there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2537863 Sat, 30 Apr 2016 20:47:46 +0000 SweetCaroline 2537863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, they didn't. I showed my grandma the ultrasound pic though (only pics she saw of DD, since my grandma passed away before DD was born). She thought it was awesome and her roommate at the care facility had never seen such a thing. Such a special memory! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-come-to-any-ultrasounds#post-2537857 Sat, 30 Apr 2016 20:34:49 +0000 Mrs. Bee 2537857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom was visiting me with my aunt in New York, and I decided to do a 3d ultrasound ~30 weeks so she could see one. It was the best decision ever. They'd both never seen an ultrasound in their lives, and Charlie was super active. They were mesmerized!</p> <p>Did your parents come to any of your ultrasounds? </p>
