3D/4D Ultrasound scan 3D and 4D ultrasound scans allow you to see your baby in even more depth and detail than a standard 2D ultrasound. There are several reasons ultrasounds are necessary during pregnancy including: → Confirming delivery date → Checking baby's heartbeat → Making sure the pregnancy isn't ectopic (i.e. in the Fallopian tubes) and is in the uterus → Confirming the number of babies in utero → Making sure baby is developing properly and at the appropriate pace → Checking and measuring baby's major organs → Measuring the size of your baby → Checking amniotic fluid levels → Diagnosing any birth defects → Determining baby's sex → Giving parents a look at baby and providing reassurance that all is going as it should be in the pregnancy |
