3D/4D Baby
3D / 4D uses sound waves to create images that can be viewed on a monitor screen where you are able to see your baby in a 3D – more life-like image, instead of the familiar flat, grainy 2D pictures. The 4th dimension is real time movement. You may be able to catch your baby smiling, yawning or sucking his thumb.
What is 3D/4D Ultrasound?
Is it safe?
Who will be performing my scan?
Prenatal ultrasound has been used widely over the last 35 years and there are no known adverse bioeffects to date. If you have ANY concerns about the safety of ultrasound we URGE you to speak to your healthcare professional before making your appointment. You must be under the care of a healthcare professional and supply us with the name and contact information.
Friendly, registered sonographers, trained in the safe and efficient use of our equipment.
When should I have my scan done?
We recommend having your sono done between 27-32 weeks for optimal imaging. You may have your ultrasound as early as 16 weeks if your main desire is to find out the gender of your baby. Some parents choose to come early for gender determination, and then come back for their 3D/4D sono. Keep in mind that there are MANY variables involved in getting clear images.
