What is the Optimal Time for a Prenatal Peek®?

This depends on how you would like to see your baby. Before 24 weeks, babies have a more skeletal appearance with 4D, but you are able to see more of the baby at once. From 28-36 weeks, babies are developing the fat layer that fills in their features so you will see more facial detail at this time. At Prenatal Peek® we think the best time to visit us is between 26-34 week into your pregnancy. 4D imaging depends upon the baby’s position, size, and movement, maternal tissue and amount of amniotic fluid, so we cannot guarantee image quality due to those factors. For Twins, the best time is before 28 weeks of pregnancy.

What is Four-dimensional (4D) ultrasound?

“4D” is shorthand for four-dimensional – the fourth dimension being time. As far as ultrasound is concerned, 4D is the latest ultrasound technology. 4D takes three-dimensional ultrasound images and adds the element of time to the process. This allows you to see your unborn baby in amazing real time detail.
