3D/4D Scan

---

With our 3D/4D Scan bonding scans you will get to look at your baby, listen to your baby's heartbeat and view your baby in 3D/4D HD live imaging. For the best imaging results, we advise to have these scans between 27-32 weeks (from 25 weeks for twins or anterior placenta).

 Included in the package is  

- 20-minute appointment   

- Approx. 15 minutes scan time  

- Listen to baby's heartbeat 

- View your baby in 2D

- View your baby in 3D/4D HD live imaging

-2x Scan Photo

-1x Heartbeat bear 

*twins supplement £40 to include a second heartbeat bear

A 3D baby scan is a type of prenatal ultrasound that generates three-dimensional images of the developing fetus. Unlike traditional 2D ultrasounds, which provide flat, black-and-white images, 3D scans create lifelike images that enable expectant parents to visualize the baby's facial features, limbs, and other anatomical structures with greater clarity. 

This type of scan is typically performed between the 27-32nd week of pregnancy, when the baby's features are more defined.

A 4D baby scan, on the other hand, is an advanced ultrasound technology that combines the 3D imaging with real-time motion. 

This creates a "live" video effect, allowing parents to observe the baby's movements and activities inside the womb. 

Like 3D scans, 4D baby scans are often performed between the 27-32nd week of pregnancy, providing a more comprehensive view of the baby's development and behaviour.

3D and 4D baby scans are typically performed between the 27th and 32nd week of pregnancy. This timeframe allows for the baby's features to be more defined, offering clearer and more detailed images.

3D and 4D baby scans are carried out by an ultrasound technician using specialized ultrasound equipment. 

The ultrasound technician applies a water-based gel on the mother's abdomen and moves a handheld probe, called a transducer, across the area. The transducer emits high-frequency sound waves that penetrate the body, bounce back, and create images of the baby's features and movements on a screen.

The primary difference between 3D and 4D baby scans is the dimensionality and motion. A 3D baby scan generates three-dimensional, static images of the developing fetus, providing lifelike images of the baby's features and anatomy. 

A 4D baby scan, on the other hand, adds a real-time motion component, creating a "live" video effect that allows parents to observe the baby's movements and activities inside the womb.

3D and 4D baby scans are considered safe and non-invasive for both the mother and the developing fetus. 

Ultrasound technology has been used in pregnancy for decades and poses minimal to no risks. However, as with any scan, it is essential to consult with your healthcare provider to discuss your specific situation and address any concerns.

3D and 4D baby scans offer a more comprehensive view of the baby's development and behavior compared to traditional 2D ultrasounds. They can provide:

· Detailed images of the baby's facial features, limbs, and other anatomical structures.

· Insights into the baby's movements, activities, and interactions with the surrounding environment.
