Tip for 3D ultrasound

melandyga · April 2013

Hey ladies! I got some exciting news yesterday! I'm going on June 20th to do a 3D ultrasound FOR FREE at one of our local technical colleges! It is 100% free, but if you want, you can donate toward the student's certification exam/fees. I'm so stinking excited! My mom wanted to have one done even if we have to pay for it, but I'm more frugal than that. If it's a couple hundred bucks to have it done, that'd buy a lot of diapers for baby Anabelle McKayla when she gets here!

Anyway, the service isn't really advertised since they can only have so many patients for the students to practice on, but I thought I'd pass the tip along. Google Diagnostic Medical Sonography in your area to see if there are any schools that offer the program. I think it's a great opportunity for both students (to have a real person to practice on) and patients (you get a whole hour of ultrasound with someone concerned about getting good pictures).

I could've scheduled it for earlier in May, but I thought we'd get better pictures if she's a little bit bigger. She'll be 29 weeks.
