2D, 3D, and 4D Ultrasound

Tips for getting the best 3D ultrasound pictures

1. Drink plenty of fluid on a regular basis. More fluid around the baby allows the ultrasound waves to distinguish your baby more clearly from all the surrounding tissue in your uterus.
2. Eat something right before your appointment. Eating something right before the 3D ultrasound will usually get your baby to be more active, giving better positions, and more entertaining 3D ultrasound images.
3. If you are in the third trimester, or late in the second trimester, use the bathroom before your appointment. In addition to you being more comfortable, your baby will have more space.
4. Wear a two piece outfit that allows you to easily expose your baby bump. During the ultrasound transducer will need to slide over your belly, and you may need to lay on one side or the other to get the baby in position.
5. Above all else, be happy and patient. Happy moms have happy babies.
