From Your First Glimpse to Birth-Ready: Capturing Every Precious Moment of Your Journey

For the most detailed and clear facial images of your baby, we generally recommend booking your 3D/4D or HD/5D scan between 26 and 32 weeks of pregnancy. Before 26 weeks, your baby may not have enough fat to fill out their features, and after 32 weeks, they might be too big or positioned too low, making it harder to get clear images. We’re happy to discuss the ideal timing for your unique pregnancy when you inquire!

• 2D Scans: These are the traditional black-and-white images, providing flat, cross-sectional views. They are primarily used for confirming pregnancy, estimated due date and fetal growth.

• 3D/4D Scans: These advanced ultrasounds create three-dimensional still images (3D) and real-time video clips (4D) of your baby. You can see your baby’s features, movements, and sometimes even expressions.

• HD/5D Scans: These are the latest in ultrasound technology, offering ultra-realistic, high-definition images with natural skin tones and soft lighting. They provide the most lifelike glimpse of your baby before birth, almost like a photograph. All scan types are available at our Kyalami, Midrand studio.
