Take a look here CLICK ME This will explain everything to you. This is what I was talking about. I read about just before I had Brady and I was like I wish I could have seen that. Totally awesome if you ask me!! [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]


Recent advances in imaging have resulted in the introduction of three-dimensional (3D) and four-dimensional (4D) ultrasound. Used in conjunction with traditional two-dimensional (2D) ultrasound imaging, which has been in use for more than 25 years, 3D/4D ultrasound provides a higher resolution image in actual or ?real? time. Such imaging is especially useful for obstetricians who suspect structural abnormalities and need to see specific surface renderings of a fetus. Carol Simmons, MD, an obstetrician/ gynecologist with Greater Pittsburgh Ob/Gyn, is one of the first obstetricians in the area to offer 3D/4D ultrasound to patients and referring physicians. Her group, which practices at Mercy Hospital, has completed thousands of scans since they started using this revolutionary equipment in April 2003

That's what I thought girl. That's why I posted that there. Take a look at the images I just posted on the thread. Very cool [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Ooohh cool...now i see what the difference is...a 3d holds still and a 4D moves *L*...i would prefer the 4D

[CanadianGirl]

[img]graemlins/hmmm.gif[/img] i wonder what the cost would be to have a 4D done..i know for a video of your baby it cost 20.00 and just for a pic its 3.00...I'll have to investigate more into that one

Ya you'll have to look into that. I had to pay $20.00 for my pics of Brady. They gave the pics to me on this big sheet but it was in the form of a negative. I thought they were screwing up and giving me someone's x-ray by accident -lmao-

If you have the money for it I say do it. What an awesome thing to be able to do and keep for memories. Just think how cool it will be for your boy to see that when he grows up.
