| Q
: When is the best time to visit? |
| A : Generally
the best pictures are captured between 28 and 32
weeks. The baby's gender can usually be determined
by the 18th week of pregnancy. Mother's expecting
twins should visit around 27 weeks, since twins
have less space. |
| |
| Q
: Can this session be billed to my insurance? |
| A : No,
your session while extremely beneficial is NOT a
medical diagnostic ultrasound. No measurements of
your baby will be taken and no evaluation of baby's
or mother's anatomy for abnormalities will be performed. |
| |
| Q
: Do I need a note from my Doctor? |
| A : No,
you do not need a note from your doctor. Although,
we do require that you are receiving prenatal care
at this time. We encourage you to discuss your intentions
with your current OB doctor. |
| |
| Q
: Is this session safe? |
| A : Ultrasound
technology has been the subject of hundreds of clinical
studies over the past 30 years and has not been
shown to cause any harm to mother or baby. Although
the possibility exist that biological effects may
be identified in the future, data indicates that
the benefits to patients outweigh the risk, if any,
that may be presented. We urge you to speak to your
doctor about the safety of ultrasound. |
| |
| Q
: Do I need to drink a lot of water? |
| A :
It is recommended that you remain hydrated during
your pregnancy. When you are well hydrated there
is more amniotic fluid in the womb. We have found
that this creates better pictures of your baby.
