Frequently Asked Questions

  • What's the difference between 2D and 3D ultrasounds?

    2D ultrasounds show flat, black-and-white images of your baby's internal structures. 3D ultrasounds create detailed, lifelike images showing facial features and body contours in realistic depth.

  • When can I get a 4D ultrasound?

    4D ultrasounds work best between 26-32 weeks of pregnancy when baby has developed facial features but still has room to move. Earlier sessions may show less detail.

  • How early can you determine baby's gender?

    Gender can typically be determined around 15-16 weeks of pregnancy through ultrasound imaging. Accuracy increases after 18 weeks when anatomy is more clearly developed and visible.

  • Do I need to prepare for my ultrasound appointment?

    For best imaging results, drink 32 ounces of water one hour before your appointment and avoid using lotion on your belly. This helps create clearer images.

  • What ultrasound images will I receive?

    You'll receive printed ultrasound images from your session showing your baby's development. The number and type of images depend on your chosen ultrasound package and session length.

  • Can family members attend my ultrasound session?

    Yes, family members are welcome to join your ultrasound session to share this special moment. It's a great way to bond and see baby together.
