Basic 4D Experience

Service Description

From 24 Weeks Appointment time : Up to 15 minutes (this may include a 5 minute walk to help better position baby for 4D) Scan time: 10 minutes What the Scan Includes: - Well-Being Check: Assessment of the fetal stomach, bladder, placenta, and amniotic fluid. - 4D Visualisation: Transition to 4D imaging to see your baby after the well-being checks (position-dependent). If your baby isn't in an optimal position, the Sonographer will provide guidance on how to encourage a better position. - Gender Confirmation: Available upon request. - Photo Package: Two glossy prints and 3 thermal prints plus digital copies of all images (up to 12 supporting images). ★ Please head to our “4D experience” section on the website to see examples of 4D images you can expect to achieve during this scan ★ If we’re unable to achieve optimal 4D results during your scan, you can choose to return on another date for a reduced fee - please feel free to ask for more details. While the cost of your scan appointment covers the duration of the procedure rather than a guarantee of 4D results, we are unable to offer refunds if 4D is not successful. Rest assured, we will always do our utmost to provide you with the best experience possible. Tips to help achieve good 4D 1. Arrive for your scan 5 minutes before your appointment time. If you are late, you will have less scan time which will affect how much 4D we are able to achieve 2. Arrive with a FULL bladder. This helps improve 4D quality 3. Eat or drink something sweet if you are able to, around 30 minutes before your scan 4. In the 2-3 days prior to your appointment, drink plenty of fluid to help increase the clarity of the amniotic fluid Some important information to consider below: The optimal time for a 4D scan is generally between 26 - 32 weeks of pregnancy, as this period offers a good balance of baby development and womb space for clear images. Whilst scans can be done as early as 24 weeks, you are more likely to achieve clear images during the 26-32 week window. There are multiple factors that will affect your image quality (Having a high BMI, anterior placenta, position of baby).
