To fully enjoy the benefits of a 3D sonogram, obstetricians at Advanced OB GYN recommend patients receive their first 3D sonogram when they are between 24 and 32 weeks pregnant. Primarily used on pregnant women for clinical and personal reasons, 3D sonograms may be given to “see” the fetus as early as 13 weeks, although features of a fetus are not clearly discernible at this stage in a pregnancy. By calculating the distance between sound waves, ultrasound-based sonograms generate accurate, lifelike images that are then displayed on a computer screen so the doctor and patient can view what is occurring inside the body. We’re ready to help you and try to think with your wishes in the best possible way.3D sonograms are three-dimensional images produced by an ultrasound device, a machine emitting sound waves that rebound off internal organs, muscles and bones. When you have an (special) ultrasound appointment, it is possible to negotiate an extra visit.

It will take place at our practice, and you don’t have to pay extra/double. In these situations, you’ll be able to make another appointment for a fun ultrasound on short-term. It may happen that during an ultrasound, the position of the baby hinders a good view of the baby. We do our best for you to be able to look at the baby as long as possible with the best picture quality as possible. In addition to the timing of the ultrasound, factors such as your BMI or the position at the time of the ultrasound of the baby influence the result of an ultrasound. We are able to perform an ultrasound in 2D (Normal), 3D and even 4D (Small Film). An ultrasound done at 34 weeks is not as ‘pretty’ as one for example done at 28 weeks.
