We Know You have Questions -Here are a few that we hear alot!

Elective ultrasounds provided by Hello Sweet Baby have no medical purpose, and no medical reports are provided. Our only intent is to allow you and your family to share an unforgettable experience with your baby.


A: An elective 2D, 3D, or 4D ultrasound is a non-medical scan designed for bonding, keepsakes, and an unforgettable experience with your baby. It’s not a substitute for medical ultrasounds with your doctor.


A: Medical ultrasounds focus on diagnosis. Ours focus on creating a relaxed, memorable bonding experience with more time and better keepsake images.


A: Yes, but:

  • We may not see or hear a heartbeat.

  • All scans are abdominal.

  • No free return/discount if booked too early.


A: Yes — over 30 years of research shows no known harm when performed with standard equipment and settings.


A:

  • Complete intake questions & waiver online.
  • Car rides can lull baby to sleep, so you may need to wake them.
  • For active baby: cold/sugary drink 15 min before.
  • Same-day bookings may have less clear images if you’re not well-hydrated for several days before


A:

  • 6–13 Weeks: heartbeat & early shape

  • 14–19 Weeks: gender & full-body

  • 20–26 Weeks: best mix of body & face

  • 28–36 Weeks: detailed close-ups

  • Anterior placenta? Not a big problem if position/fluid are good.

  • 36+ Weeks? Usually fine if position/fluid are good.


A:

  • If we can’t confirm baby’s gender at your appointment, we’ll invite you back for a free double-check scan.
  • Planning a reveal? We have cute cardstock & envelopes if you want the results kept a surprise.
  • Just let your tech know at check-in & we won’t tell you bedside.

A: We’ll try our best! Image quality depends on hydration, baby’s position, mom’s body mass index, and amniotic fluid levels. If we can’t see baby’s face at all, we’ll offer a free re-do. Anterior placenta and 36+ weeks are usually fine with good position/fluid.
