Did anyone else not want ultrasound during pregnancy?

If so, did you have a hard time finding a doctor who would go along with your wishes? Most doctors around here routinely use ultrasound, especially the doptone and the electronic fetal monitor.
With all four of my pregnancies, I always felt movement before the doctor ever heard the heartbeat. I never felt movement until about 20 weeks.
Some people consider the safety of ultrasound controversial and I did not want to take any chances. Also the electronic monitor has known risks.
