What
is a 3D pregnancy Scan?
A
3D Pregnancy Scan is a baby scan that is conducted using
the latest ultrasound scanning technology to capture a
still image of your unborn baby. 3D Pregnancy Scans are
captured in colour and are used to see the outer layer
of your unborn baby, giving you a clear picture of what
your baby looks like.
Why
get a 3D pregnancy Scan?
A 3D Pregnancy Scan gives you an exceptional opportunity
to bond with your unborn baby. Imagine being able to see
your baby’s face smiling, yawning, and opening their
eyes. A truly amazing experience that is captured through
a special and unique 3D pregnancy scan of your baby.
Many mums to be get a 3D pregnancy Scan so that they can
see their baby’s face in colour before birth, so
that they no longer have to imagine what their baby looks
like. Seeing really is believing.
When
is the best time to get a 3D pregnancy Scan?
At
Apeekaboo Imaging we say the best time to capture your
baby's animated movements through a 3D pregnancy scan
is between 20 weeks gestation & 32 weeks gestation. The
optimum time within this we suggest is around about 25
weeks - 27 weeks gestation for a 3D pregnancy scan. This
is because the fluid that surrounds your baby will be
at its most during this time; allowing the ultrasound
to send astonishingly clear images of your baby from the
womb to the screen, giving you a 3D pregnancy scan that
is clear and extremely vibrant. Some things to consider
which will affect the quality of your 3D pregnancy scan
are;
- Where
your baby is positioned
- Where
the baby’s umbilical cord is
- Where
your placenta is located
- The
amount of amniotic fluid present & mums size
