You can get the best view of your unborn child with a sonogram. Your sonogram operator or doctor can offer you the chance to get a 3d ultrasound Ohio, meaning it is a three dimensional DVD of your child when you have a checkup done. Steps for completion could vary, but outcomes are all the same even if you go to a different office to have it completed.
The average time frame that doctors suggest having this done is between your seventh and eighth month of pregnancy. It allows the parents to see details normally unable to be seen on a two dimensional ultrasound. This third dimension allows for seeing length, girth and even depth perception that many others are not able to see on a first visit.
This procedure can be done as early as twenty weeks but may not have ideal results, or be as detailed as it could be. The gestation period has much to do with how detailed the picture could be, as the growth of the baby is monitored in this manner. There are other tools that are used to monitor growth such as girth measurements, but to be certain that the baby is growing ideally and has ideal fluid, this procedure is a preferred method.
The session starts with you baring the entire stomach area so the doctor can put a bit of clear gel onto your abdomen. It's a water based product so you will not have a stain if it gets on your clothes. The wand, which is also called a transducer, is put on top of the gel so the sound waves that get sent into the amniotic fluid are able to be seen clearly as an image reflecting off your child.
The wand then gets moved to other areas where the view may be better to see the baby. Different methods are used like perineum, surface planing and trans-vaginal planing. Any of these could be employed to get the best view. It isn't a requirement to use more than one to get an ideal picture, but it is based on the skill of your doctor as to what will offer the best views.
Most doctors suggest drinking more water than you normally take in for at least a week prior, so the amniotic fluid is ample and clear to get a better view. Trans-vaginal involves a transducer being introduced vaginally to gain imaging while perineum offers an external probe view like the surface view on top of the abdomen. The use of all three together gives a very full and complete image that offers more than two dimensions.
You could use just one and have an ideal image. When you are done, the screen will show you a perfect picture of what your baby looks like including the facial features, toes, fingers and possibly the sex.
Some insurance coverages do not offer this as an option since they can be seen as a keepsake. It can still be an option, but you would need to determine if other payment would be required. Ask your insurance company about this to be certain. For details on your radiology options, talk to your doctor.
