Option 2

Gender Determination Ultrasound

 

For Pregnancies     14    weeks & Beyond

​

​​

This is the focused Gender Hunt ultrasound!

​

We first look for your baby's gender, which in some cases can take the entire session.

Once gender is established, we will then focus on your baby's face, heartbeat, fetal environment and activities.

​

These ultrasounds are great for the mom who:

1. is a planner and ready to shop,

2. has a gender reveal coming in a few weeks, or

3. is sneaking in because you just can't wait any longer .... yes- we will keep you secret...lol.

 

Do you want to keep the baby's a secret until a gender reveal?

​

Additional Info you need to know!

• ​Open to all pregnancies 14 weeks & beyond, preferably 15- 16 wks +.

• The ideal age is 16 weeks because in fetal development a scrotal sac appears in week 16 - as both boys and girls have "nubs", the appearance of a sac plays a large role in visual determinations.

• Other factors in deciding which week to schedule would be:

  • if mom has extra tummy tissue it is recommend to wait until at least 16 weeks due to the extra tissue the soundwave will have to travel thru.

  • if the placenta implanted in an anterior location (between the belly button and baby- requiring the ultrasound to travel thru the placental tissue first) -but many times mom has no idea where the placenta implanted.

  • it is believed that hormonal spikes can effect the "size" of genital tissue

  • if mom has been sick or dehydrated the fluid levels within the amniotic sac could be low (for imaging standards) and cause limited visibility. Drinking for 1 or 2 days before the appointment will Not aid in visibility, being well hydrated for ~14 days is recommended

  • early uterine contractions, and baby's positioning can also impair visibility.

Update:  Please read if you are 14 wks

Ok, Ok, due to the excitement over discovering your baby's gender and the don't forget all the shopping and planning ahead, we will now attempt gender determinations as early as 14 weeks and beyond.  Often, we have had great success at this age and earlier.

***But we will offer no guarantees the sonographer will feel comfortable making the call this early due to many variables, therefore, no complimentary re scans available to pregnancies earlier than 15 weeks.

​

Fair Enough?   If not- just wait the extra week...lol.***
