Frequently Asked Question

• Can I see my baby if I wait greater than 34 weeks?

  Yes with appropriate fluid and movement the images and expressions are remarkable. Check my facebook account for examples.

• What kind of Ultrasound equipment do you use to perform the 4D Ultrasounds?

  We use the state of the art equipment from GE to complete all Ultrasound examinations. Our equipment has been advertised in GE television commercials and many printed articles in known medical jounrals, from around the world. This machine is the best 2D, 3D and 4D Ultrasound machine available in the market. Only the GE equipment generates 3D images with amazing clarity and gives you the same clarity with 4D imagery of your baby in motion. Our sonogram equipment allows you to see your baby in live motion video unlike any other equipment in the market.

• What will determine quality of the images?

  Fetal position is the number one determination of how your image quality will be. Some babies come ready for viewing and great images are obtained. Others simply turn their back or cuddle up to the placenta or the uterine wall or insist on putting their hands and feet in front of their face. We will try hard to make your baby move in order to see and image the face. Drinking juice or eating a little candy may help the baby move a little on that day of imaging.

• Does the location of my placenta impact the quality of my images?

  Not necessarily. Many clients with anterior placenta ( in front ) often ask if there will be difficulty seeing their baby with a 3d/4d ultrasound. A large percentage of our clients have anterior placenta and we are able to scan from the side and around the placenta to see the baby. In some cases, the baby will face into the placenta, whether it is anterior, posterior ( along the back) or fundal ( along the top), in which case, we will work to try to get the baby to move away from the placenta. Some of the images will have parts of the placenta in them, after all, we are imaging the baby in the womb. We will do our best to get as much of the face in view as possible but a full face shot is not always available. Similarly, babies are often going to be putting their hands and feet in their face and may not free up a view of the entire face. Many moms write back to tell us that their babies make the same gestures and put hands and feet in the face after birth just as they did in the womb and it makes them treasure the ultrasound images even more.

• Will I always get great images of my baby?

  Most of the time we are able to get great images, but not always. Sometimes if the baby is looking facing down toward mom's spine we are unable to get images, same happens if the baby is laying against the placenta. Every baby scans differently, depending on its gestational age, position, amount of fluid, and mother's condition. We promise to make every possible efforts to obtain the best possible images of what ever parts of the baby that can be seen.
