A good picture of baby's face is often obtained but not always. The baby's position, the amount of fluid, location of placenta, hands/cord around the face and maternal size can interfere with images of the face, these factors are unpredictable at the time of scanning despite using state of the art equipment and the best practice of the sonographer. If the baby’s face is completely hidden throughout the session, we will repeat your baby scan at no additional charge on another day.

Empty your bladder one hour before your scan, then drink a sugary drink like orange or blackcurrant, eat a small snack like a yogurt or piece of fruit, or even a chocolate bar! The reason for this is that the sugar will get baby moving for your 4D DVD.
