FAQs

6 weeks is the earliest point at which a pregnancy ultrasound can be completed. This ultrasound is an
abdominal ultrasound. We do NOT offer trans-vaginal ultrasounds. At approximately 6 weeks, the
gestational sac can be seen via abdominal ultrasound.

We start our gender scans at 13 weeks and 3 days.

A 2D ultrasound is the standard black and white image which we use to look at the profile and internal
structures of the baby.

A 3D ultrasound allows us to see the surface of the baby’s face in a still image.
 

A 4D ultrasound is a surface view that you can see in live motion. You can see the baby yawn or move
their hands.
 

HD refers to a special software package that allows us to see baby’s features more clearly, along with
special lighting features.
Our ultrasound machine, the GE Voluson E6 is the best of the best at displaying all these types of
pictures.

We like to see our babies for 3D/4D and HD Live anytime between 22-34 weeks. The best viewing time is
between 28 and 32 weeks. After 32 weeks, we can still get good pictures, but the chances go down
because of the baby and placenta’s possible position, and the amniotic fluid naturally tends to diminish.

Drink plenty of water even several days before your appointment to ensure your amniotic fluid is clear.
About a half hour before your 3D/4D ultrasound scan, try to drink a fruit juice so that your baby will be
awake during your session (unless you are told not to by your physician).

Less than 5 minutes after your session has ended.

Ultrasound has been used to see into the womb for over 35 years. No adverse effects have been found.
As trained sonographers, we utilize the same safety rules as we would in any medical setting.

Yes, ultrasound are by appointment only.

No, we do not accept insurance because this is an elective procedure.

We do not contact your doctor prior to the scan since this is an elective procedure. We do require
however that you currently are under prenatal care and if you have any concerns, you should ask your
doctor. Ultrasound technicians in general cannot make a diagnosis.

8K ultrasound images are generated with incredibly high resolution. The average 3D ultrasound image is

higher – 6 megapixels!
