The same
highly trained and skilled
technologists that perform our full
diagnostic scans are also proficient in the art of 3D/4D ultrasounds as
well. Our Elective Limited Diagnostic Ultrasound Sessions are designed
to provide reassurance scans for those expectant mothers who are
currently receiving prenatal care, and have undergone their second
trimester diagnostic ultrasound. We have designed our sessions to fit
nearly all budgets including our 2D Gender Check ultrasound as well as
the very popular 3D/4D ultrasound sessions. We require notification
from your healthcare provider; please call our office for more
information.
This session is very similar to the ultrasound you
received during your second trimester. This is a black and white
session, where we will determine the gender of your baby. We also help
familiarize you and family members with the anatomy of the baby and
his/her environment. We also take numerous pictures of your baby and
record the pictures on a CD that you may take with you.
Your 3D/4D session will start out with a 2D
limited diagnostic session. We will check several items for you and
your baby such as: fetal heart rate, position of the baby,
placenta location, and also we will observe your amniotic fluid level.
Once we have established that you and your baby
are doing well, we will then start the 3D/4D session. This session will
include a minimum of 20 minutes, where we will be exploring your baby
and his/her environment. The entire session will be recorded onto a
DVD, that can be set to music of your choice. During the session, we
will also be taking still photos of your baby and recording them to a
CD that you may take home with you. Normally, we take anywhere
from 40-70 pictures of your baby and their environment!
We also encourage you to bring adult family
members along, so that everyone can enjoy this amazing once in a
lifetime experience!
