Frequently asked questions

A 3D ultrasound creates three dimensional images of your baby, so you can see detailed features like the face, hands and feet. A 4D ultrasound adds real time movement, so you can watch your baby move in the womb.

An 8K image is a highly enhanced 3D ultrasound image with incredibly sharp and detailed visuals. It is not a separate type of ultrasound, but a higher resolution version of a 3D image. Your 8K image will be ready 5 to 7 business days after your session.

Yes. 3D and 4D ultrasounds use the same ultrasound technology as traditional 2D ultrasounds, which have been used for many years without any known risks to mother or baby.

We do not require a doctor's referral for elective 3D/4D ultrasounds. We always recommend checking with your healthcare provider before booking.

The best time is usually between 26 and 32 weeks of pregnancy. By then your baby has enough fat for clearer images, but is not so large that limited space in the womb makes the images unclear.

The ideal window is between 26 and 32 weeks. Before 26 weeks your baby may be too small, and after 32 weeks there may be less amniotic fluid or your baby may be too large for the best imaging.

Gender can often be determined from 15 weeks of pregnancy, depending on your baby's position and the clarity of the images. If your baby does not reveal the gender during a Gender Reveal session, we will gladly offer a free re-scan.

Yes. Clear images can be more challenging because space in the womb is limited and babies sometimes block each other, but we will do our best to capture beautiful images for you. For twins, the best time is before 28 weeks.

A typical 3D/4D session lasts 20 to 40 minutes, depending on your baby's position and cooperation. Each package lists its own session time.

Yes. You will receive prints, digital images and video recordings of your session as keepsakes. The items included depend on the package you choose.

Not always. Your baby's position, the amount of amniotic fluid, the size of your baby and the mother's body type can all affect image clarity. Your baby may also be facing away or hiding.

• Your baby's position, for example facing your back or hiding in the womb.
• The amount of amniotic fluid, since less fluid can mean less clear images.
• The amount of maternal body tissue.
• The size of your baby and the position of the placenta.

We may ask you to change position to help your baby move. With our Golden Memories and Mommy Bundle packages, if your baby's face cannot be seen due to their position, our ultrasound technician will determine whether a complimentary re-scan is appropriate. Re-scans are offered at the technician's discretion and do not apply when image limitations are due to low amniotic fluid, placenta placement, or when the face is covered by hands, feet or the umbilical cord.

Yes! We encourage family and friends to share the experience. Our studio has seating for up to 8 guests, and kids are welcome too.

No. Our ultrasounds are elective and are not used for medical diagnosis, so they are not covered by Medicaid or private insurance. Full payment is required at the time of your appointment.
