We suggest wearing comfortable clothes to your ultrasound: A loose shirt that can be easily lifted over your growing belly, and a pair of pants or a skirt that can be scooted down below your hips. To maintain your privacy we do not recommend wearing a dress to your ultrasound. You may also want to bring your camera or video recorder to capture any special moments of you and your loved ones during your session.

Yes, you must be under the care of an Obstetrician at the time of your appointment, and we will need their practice name as well as their contact number.

If you are scheduled for our Sweet Beats package and are no more than 12 weeks into your pregnancy we suggest that you arrive with a full bladder. Drinking 32 ounces of water 1 hour before your session should help us adequately visualize your baby during your ultrasound. If you are in the second or third trimester of your pregnancy it is not necessary to come to your appointment with a full bladder, but being adequately hydrated will increase the chances of getting better pictures during your scan. You should start drinking water several days before your scheduled sonogram appointment, this will help your amniotic fluid be clear which makes it easier to see your baby. If your doctor says it is okay, drinking a fruit juice prior to your session may make your baby more active during the appointment. Before each appointment, make sure you have contacted everyone you wish to attend your session and inform them of the date, time, and location of your appointment. We want to make sure everyone important to you is able to share in this experience.

If you are offered a free rescan at the time of your initial appointment, you have four weeks from the date of your first appointment to come back for your rescan. We do not offer refunds for the initial visit if you can not make it for your rescan appointment within the allotted time.

Possibly. Sonograms use sound waves to send a signal into the body. The returning signal produces the ultrasound image. Thicker tissues result in a weaker return signal which may cause poor image quality, but this is not always the case. Drinking lots of water several days before your appointment to increase your amniotic fluid will allow us to capture the best possible images.

Several studies have indicated that no harmful effects have been associated with the use of ultrasound imagery during pregnancy. Please review the following link to a recent article published by the journal of Ultrasound in Obstetrics & Gynecology that reviews the data related to this subject.

We are able to see some things better than others depending on where you are in your pregnancy. Between 15-26 weeks your baby’s entire body is better visualized. At this size it should be easy to watch him stretch his legs, or see her in her best “yoga pose.” After 26 weeks baby starts developing more fat, and his facial features become more defined. Because your baby is growing so fast, and her living space is getting smaller and smaller, as you reach the end of your pregnancy it will become more difficult to obtain good pictures. We recommend scheduling your sonogram session no later than 34 weeks, but some babies remain in a good position up until the very end of the pregnancy. So if your willing to give it a try then so are we!

Of course! We want you to share this special time with everyone that is important to you. We have a comfortable sectional sofa to accommodate your guests, and we can also pull chairs from the waiting room if necessary. Your ultrasound will be projected on a large flat screen television for easy viewing from anywhere in the room. If you are expecting to come with a large group let us know so we can prepare to meet your viewing needs.

Except where explicitly stated, only one discount may be applied per visit.
