It also means the very best ultrasound scanner available, a technician that is warm, friendly and informative excited to show you around your baby. To us, that means, a beautifully designed viewing room for you, your family and friends, an extremely comfortable bed and warmed gel. But on average, these babies weigh 6.5 pounds and arrive after 38 weeks of pregnancy not very small or very early. We believe that seeing the baby growing inside you should be an amazing experience supported by the best of everything. Ultrasounds tell doctors about your baby’s health, but some terms on the images can be alarming without context. We will never keep you waiting for your appointment and we are available anytime night or day. We put you first by offering appointments that fit your hectic schedule, all without the need for a doctors’ referral. I’m also being more vocal about my preferences, like my desire to limit my baby’s ultrasound exposure, and my priorities in terms of what kind of information I care about and what measurements I can live without if they’re not easy to get.Here at Early Image, we believe that your pregnancy is stressful enough and that Mum, or Dad, should be able to see their baby whenever they like and as often as they want. Third time, I’m doing my one ultrasound with an ob who’s more comfortable with my style of low-intervention pregnancy and birth (he even contratulated me on my 2 previous home births). Which seemed ridiculous because I wasn’t about to do anything differently due to minor non-life-threatening birth defects that could be easily fixed with surgery after the birth. ![]() Finally I asked what she still needed, and it turned out she’d spent the last 10 minutes trying to rule out a cleft lip and a club foot (my daughter had neither). But there’s SO much to learn when you’re becoming a first time parent, and even the most informed of us often don’t know how much we don’t know.įor my second pregnancy, I was more careful, and limited it to the one 20-week ultrasound, but still ended up spending way more time on the table than I wanted, because the technician kept insisting she was having trouble getting the baby into the right position for some of the pictures she needed to take. I was pretty mad when I found out, and wished I’d done more research beforehand. Also, I let them talk me into getting 3D scans and pictures, because I had never heard of them and didn’t realize there was any risk associated. I feel like we could have saved ourselves a ton of grief and stress if we’d known it was a common issue and not done all the follow up ultrasounds. In the end, we skipped all the invasive procedures and the issue resolved itself within a few months. We ended up following up on it after he was born, and there was a lot of fear-mongering by doctors who wanted to do invasive procedures to “check whether he’s at risk of getting a bladder infection”, and even chided us for not circumsizing him because that would make him more susceptible to UTIs which could then spread to his bladder. For my first pregnancy I didn’t do any research about ultrasounds beforehand, so when the doctor saw fluid in my son’s kidneys and made it sound like it was a serious complication, we let her talk us into having a second ultrasound to check up on it, and then a third when it still hadn’t resolved. ![]()
