3D/4D Ultrasound

hopefloats062015 · March 2015

Hi ladies,
Is anyone having the 3D/4D US done? Hope everyone is feeling well.

kem001 · March 2015

Yes i am! I am 25 weeks today. Having it done at 28 weeks. I can't wait

kherman14 · March 2015

Yup I am doing it next week Friday. It is sooo cool!

Tried to share the picture.. Didn't work

Went yesterday... She didn't want to turn to show her whole face.. So I'll be going back.

Had one done last weekend at 25 weeks and I loved it! Came out great! This little one is going to favor her big sister quite a bit

taboullio84 · March 2015

@aleishajewell same here. It was crazy to see how much this one looked like her sister and youngest brother. I loved it !

I really want to have one done! In fact, I asked my fiancé if he could schedule one for me for my birthday present. He thought it was a weird gift request but it's something I'll love for sure!

When is the best time to have it done? I'm really curious about this...

taboullio84 · March 2015

I was told 28 -32 weeks. Baby is Chucky enough to look all squishy and cute, but still have enough room to move around so you can see their face. But it will all depend on how much fluid you have around them as well.. So with enough fluid you could go get good pictures way later in the game as well.

I had my first 3d-4d ultrasound at 18 weeks. He still didn't have any fat but we were able to see a lot of his cute features

CourtneySmith1227 · March 2015

Also I will have another 3d-4d at about 30 weeks so I'll let you know and try to attach both

taboullio84 · March 2015

@CourtneySmith1227 we did one at 13 /24 and will do the next one at 32 . I love watching her grow. My Dr enjoys the updates. She even made the comment sheer looks like 2 of my others... Haha

CourtneySmith1227 · March 2015

I love it. The ultrasound tech kept laughing at him cause his feet were by his head and he was doing something weird. But I can't wait to see what my chubby monster looks like now. I got til april 6th=/

newestmommy · March 2015

We had one done at 16 weeks then again at 26 weeks. The difference was amazing. My only suggestion is don't wait too long to get it done. The lady who did ours said if we waited another week to get it done there would have not been much to see as she would be to squished in my uterus to get any decent pict

finchfeeder80 · March 2015

Nope, not my thing. Plus, we don't really have that kind of extra cash laying around. I also have the feeling the results wouldn't be that great, considering I see an mfm to use their better ultrasound equipment for growth checks since I'm too fat for fundal height measurements and those "better" images have been highly disappointing. You can barely tell you're looking at a baby and we've only gotten one picture worth taking home out of two anatomy checks and a growth check. I'll save my money for when baby's here.

rickaross41 · March 2015

I'm going to see my baby on the 30th for the 4d & 3d ultrasound. I'm really excited.

klkonwi · March 2015

I'm so excited about mine at 28 weeks but I really shouldn't get my hopes up because my doc is new to the 3D world wands and is known to be terrible at ultrasounds period........ Bummer

Kooiker14 · March 2015

Nope. I only do the recommended ultrasounds from my dr which were two. One to confirm pregnancy and dates. The other to check anatomy. Both were normal
Ultrasounds. If there were something that showed in the anatomy one we would have done another she said but we were good to go. I also believe that they don't recommend doing all the extras just for getting pictures for baby book because no one knows fully if there is any effect on the growing fetus at all as studies haven't entirely been done. I don't see the point, don't get me wrong love seeing my LO on the screen but don't want to do unnecessary things either

Zeuskay01 · March 2015

Unfortunately my doctor doesn't do them but I am going to go ahead and get it done out of pocket. I'm a FTM and I'm trying to soak in every bit of this pregnancy as I can because its going by so quick! It is a little pricey but I really don't "treat" myself to many things now, so I look at it as my gift to myself

alyralfs · March 2015

It was hard to get a good picture because she's right up against my placenta but here's my beautiful girl

taboullio84 · March 2015

@alyralfs love it

bnbainesWed137495 · March 2015

We had ours this week at 28 weeks. We didn't get great shots but it's crazy how similar this one looks to its sister.

sicard4 · March 2015

We're going tomorrow for ours! I can not wait to see our baby girl it's been 10 weeks since we have seen her!!

klkonwi · March 2015

Here's our boy 26 weeks.

bwow615 · March 2015

Went today for my 3d/4d and the little babe was not having any of it. At first we could see his profile, but the Us tech wanted a front view, so I drank some more juice. About 5 minutes later he decided to completely flip around face down and was not going to turn around for us after that. Had to reschedule for the 2nd of April. Going to monitor what types of foods make him move, and try to eat something that will make him active before the next one. Hoping he will want to share his little face with us next time

delujm0 · March 2015

I think I'd rather be surprised when she's born than know exactly what she'll look like ahead of time. My doctor doesn't have 3d/4d equipment unfortunately. I wasn't supposed to have ultrasounds after the 18w A\S but at 26 weeks my fundal measurement was 3.5 weeks ahead so they gave me an extra one. She's right on schedule and actually quite small (27th percentile) but is breech and was all curled up in a ball, which is likely why I measured so big.

I was funny to see that she had one foot over her head and the other one kicking my bladder repeatedly, but we didn't get a real clear look at her face. If she stays breech we will definitely have another one around 34-36 weeks to see if there's any chance of her flipping at that point.

JodieGriff12 · March 2015

We had one done last week at 29 weeks!! He is just like his daddy I don't have a look in

Knottie64157109 · March 2015

We are doing one on April 1st. Our little girl had a slight heart defect so this is just something light to focus on the joy.
