You Should Know:

BEST TIME:

The Best Time to have your 3D 4D U/S Experience:  12-15 weeks & 27 weeks – 35 weeks

We suggest 12-15 weeks if you would like to see the entire baby in 3D/4D.

We suggest 27 weeks to 35 weeks, as the bub is fully developed and has fat layers, giving bub that newborn cute chubby appearance.  Therefore giving better definition of baby’s features, lips nose etc.

We recommend having your 3D/4D ultrasound experience as close to 27 weeks as possible and no later than 35 weeks as bub has less room to move & therefore position of bub is not as variable at this stage.

GOOD IMAGES:

What makes a good image? Timing of ultrasound (see previous)

A hydrated mother: therefore drink 2 litres of water per day for 1 week prior to ultrasound appointment.  Herbal tea counts as water. Not tea, coffee, soft drink or Cordial

Bubs’ position, Face up is good, amniotic fluid in front of bubs face is good.  Hands down is good, cord away from face is good & bubs’ away from placenta & uterus walls is good.

Loads of positive family members and friend creates an awesome atmosphere

We guarantee to make every effort to get a good image, all for the one price.

PHOTO SHOOT:

This is your bubs’ first photo shoot.

This is a once in a life time experience for this unique bub

This is not clinical & regimented, it’s a happy joyous & amazing experience

This is not a diagnostic ultrasound; you would have already had this at your 12 week & 20 week ultrasound.

NO REFERRAL:

No Doctors referral is necessary as this is NOT a replacement for your routine diagnostic ultrasound examinations.

HARMFUL:

Ultrasound has NOT been proven to be Harmful to your bub

3D & 4D ultrasound image information is generated using the same pulse wave techniques as your traditional 2D ultrasound (Black & White images).  Using sophisticated software within the ultrasound system creates the 3D & 4D images.  Therefore there is no proven risk to you bub or your pregnancy.
