I just had an amnio and it hurt. I thought it wouldn't hurt this much. My dr did a great job. The absolutely worst part was when he had to go through my uterus and get the amniotic fluid. It hurt and I couldn't breath. Now my uterus and back are cramping like period cramps. Ouch!! If any of you have to have one I hope u mentally prepare better then I did!

    @kansaamomma when do u get ur results? Expected induction date? I get to go fri :)
  • kansasmommakansasmomma
    @rockinmomma Thank u! yea I think it was my nerves and pressure that made it hurt. I was really nervous.

    @kaylin I will get my results this afternoon any time from 3-5. Then my dr will let me know if I get induced today, tomorrow or Thursday! Are u excited for friday?? How far along are u??
  • rockinmommarockinmomma
    Its possible it hurts worse the further along you are. I mean there's a big difference between being 24wks like I was and being at the end of your pregnancy. At least you get to meet your little one soon!! I'm jealous :D keep us updated!!
  • kansasmommakansasmomma
    @rockinmomma yea that's true!! I feel like a big baby since im.complaining so much. I'll definitely keep u updated!! Im so excited to have my baby girl!!

    I feel stupid for asking but I thought they did amnios earlier in the pregnancy. Just out of curiosity, why do they do it in the end? Wont they know whatever they need to know when the baby comes out in a few days?

    Good luck hun, keep us updated on what you find out! :D
  • kansasmommakansasmomma
    @vtmamajuju they did the amnio on me because I have to deliver early because im high risk. They did it to make sure her lungs are fully developed. I'll get the results this afternoon, in the next few hrs actually!! Early on in pregnancy amnios are done to test for downs syndrome and other diseases. In the third trimester they are done to see how developed the baby is!

    @mommyoftwoprincesses thank u very much!! I'll update everyone asap!
  • kaylinkaylin

    @kansasmomma...i am so thankful that you posted this because my amnio is scheduled for 6-28 and induction hopefully that night...i wil take whatever info you have gorry detail and all
  • kansasmommakansasmomma
    @2girls1boy oh the amnio is scary but you'll get the results fast so it makes it better! I think the most painful part was when the needle when through my uterus. It was a ton of pressure but only a 4 out of 10 on a pain scale. Its more scary then it was painful. You will do fine!! If u have any questions please fill free to ask!! Oh and congrats on ur baby!! Im excited for u!!
