Very nice. How cool technology has become!!!!

 

I debated whether to have a 3D ultrasound when I was pregnant. Ultimately I decided agaisnt it because I wanted an element of surprise when my son was born......but WOW.... if you want to see some clear facial detail, these are really cool! What a cutie. Congrats!

thats so cool.

how much did it cost you?

[Hope75]

Very neat- you certainly do get a lot of detail with the 3D.

 

I too am curious how much it cost you as well, and it any of it was covered by insurance.

[ReadyorNot]

For any canadians reading you can go to UC Baby and its $175 for the basic package. Nothing is covered by insurance.

 

Congrats on the ultrasound and having a baby girl!

so, I actually didnt pay anything for mine because my friends mom runsa 3D prenatal imaging studio kind of thing. The package I got would have cost $195 (it was my shower gift). Snd that was for 40 minutes. I got a DVD a gift bag and close to 25 pictures. I think it was like 15 printd and 23 on a CD or something like that.The printd ones come out in black and white and the ones on the CD come out colored (orange-ish and black like the ones i posted).

its well worth the money if you can afford it. Even the 10 minute one would be worth it. I was so in shock that this little person was mine i didn't even speak the whole u/s haha.

 

and no, insurance won't cover it because its still a new procedure and its not considered necessary to the pregnancy. =(

Depends on the doctor.

 

My doctor had a 3D ultrasound machine in the office.

 

Each time I went to visit he looked with it, I saw her each and every time after my 4th month.. He did not even listen for the heart beat... He looked with the ultrasound and we could see it beating, and a reading on the screen gave a print out of just what the doctor wanted to see.

 

He measured her as she grew. It was so so freaking cool.

 

It did not cost me anything extra. He preferred to do it this way.

 

My daughter is now a year old. When I was pregnant with my 3 year old though, he didn't have the machine in the office and I had a normal ultrasound.... So it would depend on if your doctors office were willing to shell out the cash to buy the machine. My doc was very excited with his new toy..
