Frequently Asked Questions

We try to obtain the best photos/video possible during your session however many times baby can be uncooperative and/or other factors may contribute in not being able to obtain clear, crisp images. Keep in mind every scan can have varying results as every expecting mother and baby are different. Some scans can produce multiple 3D images while others can be a challenge to get 1 face shot some of these factors are listed below.

* With every ultrasound we provide, we do our best to capture optimal images. 3D/4D imaging quality can and will vary by but not limited to, low and/or cloudy amniotic fluid, late gestational age, unfavorable fetal lie (position) or maternal body habitus (weight, build, size, structure) placenta location, babies leg, arm, hand, feet in front of face which can create a black void. We always try our best to obtain as many images as possible during your session and go the extra mile if we are having trouble with any above factors however please be aware each woman and baby are different and as such each outcome of footage can be different and we can make no guarantee that your images will be perfectly clear as it will all depend on you, your body and your baby.

You can schedule a gender determination with us as early as 15 weeks however we recommend that you chose the 2D package to have this session preformed since the baby is still very small.

We are an elective facility not a medical provider as such our ultrasound / sonogram scans are for entertainment purposes only and in no way do our scans take the place of a medical diagnostic ultrasound scheduled by your doctor. You should always make sure you receive a diagnostic ultrasound / sonogram scheduled by your OB/GYN.

WATER, WATER, WATER, at least 1 week prior to your appointment date you should be drinking

8 – 8oz. glasses of water each day for 7 days prior to scan date that’s about 4 – 16.oz water bottles ea. day this is very important to help in obtaining clearer images. There are many factors at play in obtaining clear images of your little one, as listed in the above FAQ. as well as our disclaimer however drinking water is one you can help with! Eat regularly; however, try not to ingest a heavy meal or eat anything gassey prior to the appointment.  Sound waves don’t travel air.   A small meal and bottle of orange juice 20 minutes prior will suffice, this can help get baby moving prior to scan time. Remember to always follow your doctor’s recommendations. At Inner Reflections, we like to take care of our mommies and their families we will offer refreshments upon arriving and a refreshment for your family during your scan. Remember: “You do not need a full bladder”.
