When is too late for a 3D Ultrasound?

ErinS3204

I'm still undecided to go for a 3D ultrasound or not.  When is too late to go?  I know most websites say 22 - 34 weeks.  I'm currently 34 weeks.  I know I'm running out of time, but is it pointless after a certain time since there's not much room in there any more?  Not sure what to do!!

Thanks!

I was told 32 weeks because it gets too tight and you can't see things.  I would call your place, see what they say and then get in there asap.

34 weeks is really pushing it because the baby is so big you can't see a heck of a lot of detail.  I had a regular u/s at 36 weeks and watching the monitor I couldn't tell one thing fromm another even with the tech pointing things out - even her face!  I think you might have  hit the point where it is a little late unless you can get in immediately andeven then, it may be a waste.

We had one at 30 weeks and we were only able to see half of LO's face, since he was SOOO low and pushed up against my placenta/uterine wall.  He hasn't moved since- so no "good" 3D images for us....

I've had 3D ultrasounds at 31, 33, and 35 weeks for medical reasons. It looked pretty cramped in there, and we never got a good picture, even at her 31 week scan.

Save your money!

We were told save it for around 30-34w. We had one 33w and got amazing shots of her just being herself and all over the place. I think everyone is different it seems.

My sister had hers done at 34 weeks and she thought that was too late. The baby was all squished so you don't get the greatest pictures.
