3D ultrasound?

I had multiple 4D ultra sounds, and would recommend it to everyone!  You can see so much detail, you can see what the baby looks like.  We could even see our babys lips moving as he was sucking his fingers.  The tech informed us that having one done before 28 weeks is somewhat scary, due to the baby not having as much fat on their body, but, anytime after that is good.  For us, we had to ask for this kind of ultrasound, and they would just flip a switch and use a different wand, it took about 2 seconds.  If you can, get the 3D, the pictures are so much fun for the baby book.

Personally, I think they're a little creepy because I've seen so many that made the babies look really lumpy. I'm sure it was just because the baby moved and it's dificult to get a really great picture, but they just seemed weird to me. Plus, for most people they aren't covered by insurance and they're very expensive (and there are plenty of other things you'll need to spend money on!). I was satisfied with a profile shot from a regular ultrasound for all three of mine to hold me over until they were born. Seeing my kids little faces was a sweet surprise after all that waiting!
