Frequently Asked Questions

6 - 12 Weeks:  Listen to your baby's heartbeat and see your baby for the first time in the first trimester.

14 - 20 Weeks: Gender Reveal - We can determine the sex of your baby as early as 14 weeks.  You will be able to see the entire baby in one picture and see all the fetal movements.  You can watch the baby kick, wave, listen to your baby's heartbeat, etc… During this time you will be able to make out the baby's eyes, nose, and mouth.

22 - 25 Weeks: The baby’s facial features will be filling out and become more prominent. Baby now looks like a little baby doll now and weighs approximately 1 lb.   

​​28 - 32 Weeks:  Generally, by this time the baby is head down.  Baby is now getting its true facial features. This is the best time to get the close-up detailed pictures of the baby’s face in 4D/HD.   

34 - 40 Weeks:  After 34 weeks, it becomes more and more difficult to obtain good pictures, since the baby is running out of room. However, all babies are different and we have been successful in obtaining great images all the way up to 40 weeks!

Stay extra hydrated!  During the pregnancy, the most important element that influences the clarity of pictures is the amount of water mom drinks days before the appointment.  Stay away from all sugary drinks for 3 days before your appointment (soda, juice, etc.).  This will ensure the clarity of the fluids in the amniotic sac.

Rest assured if you do not want to know your baby’s gender in pregnancy, you can safely enjoy your at-home ultrasound while keeping the gender hidden!
