Horrible experience with a locum sonographer for my 20 Weeks scan. Luckily we went for a private scan in the same hospital with a Doctor to be comforted.
The locum sonographer was really rude and irritated because the baby was in a wrong position even after a walk. She pressed on my tummy very strongly to make him moved which didn't work at all (I'm used to treatments of all sorts, so I'm not a sissy but this time was really painful for me and for my baby I'm sure), I told her it was painful but she continued.
In addition to this, she didn't check if my placenta lake was still there (which the private doctor confirmed), missed some important measures and her results are not similar to those of my doctor.
Very disappointed, especially because I had a fabulous lady for my 12W scan in the same service. But I guess she was part of the hospital staff, this one was a replacement I think.
