Will my baby really look like his 3D picture after he is born?

The later you come in for a 3D ultrasound, the more likely your baby is to look like he will be after he is born. However, we do not recommend coming in later than 34 weeks.

3D ultrasound is limited though to certain colors. 3D pictures will usually be in a yellow/golden hue. Our sonographers can make your baby blue/red or purplish grey.

Features on your baby's 3D/4D sonogram will be very simular to your baby after he is born.

Hair is not seen on 3D ultrasound, though it is seen in 2D ultrasound and will appear as "spikes" coming off baby's head. This will also depend on the ammount of baby's hair. Sometimes there is only a fuzzy peach-like layer.

3D ultrasound will definately give you a much clearer picture than standard 2D ultrasound. The clarity is like day and night.
