Anyone been to Becoming Mom???

Traycee1242 · March 2011

I still have a gift certificate to Becoming Mom that I was given at my baby shower for DS.. I never got around to using it (and we were team green so I was nervous if we did a 3d u/s we might accidentally find out the sex) then I totally forgot about it...
It doesn't expire until July... DH gets to decide with this baby if we find out the sex since I decided NOT to last time.. And he definitely wants to know (boo.. I desperately DONT want to)
I thought about going for the u/s for gender determination... Says as early as 16 weeks??? They guarantee results or your money back... Just seems really early.
So I guess my questions are... How was your experience?? If you found out that early did time go really slow for the rest of your pregnancy?? Anyone let DH find out but you didn't? How did it go?? I'm considering this.... TIA

I went when I was 32 weeks preggo.. and it was for a massage. At that point, I really needed one, so that was lovely.

Anyway, I didn't do the 3d/4d u/s there because my OB's office does them. But they were very nice and I'd go back!

I went to mirror imaging at 17 weeks and they were able to tell that she was a girl. They went out of business, but it was a similar place to becoming mom. It was a great experience, I highly suggest it. They will let you come back as many times as necessary if they don't get a clear shot the first time. And if they are wrong then you get your money back. We didn't do 3d, just the gender determination

We went to Becoming Mom when I was about 16w and like 2 days and they were able to tell she was a girl. They were super nice. The package said that it included like 2 pictures and she gave us about 10. The tech was super nice and checked our her goods several times from a couple different angles to make sure that she really was a girl. I would definitely go back there again.

I went there with both kids to find out the gender. I would highly recommend it!

ETA: My friend let her DH find out, but she didn't want to know. He ended up dropping enough subtle hints (without meaning to) that she knew it was a boy before he was born. Still fun for them though. Good luck deciding

i went to becoming mom at sixteen weeks. their website said you only get fifteen minutes. but, our tech spent thirty minutes with us because lily would not uncross her legs. but they were right on the money. girl.

I went at 18 weeks for my gender determination & it was the BEST money I ever spent. Course I also REALLY wanted to know the sex so I couldn't wait. I loved it there! Everyone was BEYOND nice & so much more relaxing, nice compared to the hospital ultrasound places. Big screens, comfy couches for family & the dvd was the best $15 I ever spent.

I also bought a ton of maternity clothes from there as well- that you can wear also after baby. They were a bit pricey but I liked that they served a dual purpose! I wish I could give you my stork credits to there!

What's funny is that I had scheduled a "surprise" couple massage & another 3d/4d ultrasound for Kevin's birthday which was February 25th - I went into labor on Feb 18th & delivered on the 21st - I think he got an even better surprise!!

I liked my gender determination so much that I got my cousin/best friend a gift certificate there for her gender determination as a shower thank you gift - FYI she went at 16 weeks & they would not do the 4d images on her they said it was too early. So if you are interested in those kind of images I would wait a little bit. They did do it for me at 18 weeks though.

I just went there about 3 weeks ago for their gender determination u/s, I was 15w 5d and they were able to tell us, and it was pretty obvious, that we are having another boy. I also went there when I prego with DS for their gender determination u/s and for their 3D u/s. I have had a great experience every time I went, i can honestly say I have not one complaint on them. They are super nice and extremely professional. The package said we were to get 2 pics, the tech gave us 4, and we spent the $10 extra for the CD with pics which said it come with 5-10 and she gave us around 25 pics. The place is great if you want to take any family or friends with you.

Ditto this. LOVED the massage. I also did a mani/pedi. No u/s though.
