So what is an ultrasound ?
A prenatal ultrasound uses a transducer to deliver high frequency sound waves . Echos of the sound waves are recorded and transformed into pictures . A gel is applied to the belly and transducer before the scan which helps conduct the sound waves . 2D and 3D are still images .4D adds motion and dimension so it looks like a video.HD adds more realism .

Tips on how to get the best bonding experience
1) Book your session 2) Arrive 10 minutes early to sign registration and consent forms . 3) Water !!! Drink 64-84 ounces a day for a week prior to your appointment. 4) Only fill bladder if baby is less than 10 weeks old .5) Everything hinges on the amniotic fluid or the fluid around the baby. Baby’s with more fluid tend to move more . The water increases the transparenc off the fluid.So being well hydrated is key . 6) Bring loved ones , family , friends , and children! 7)Eat before your appointment , just a light snack . 8)Unfortunately there is no guarantee that your baby will cooperate . If this happens we will set up for a rescan . 9)If you drove more than a hour drink something cold and sugary . Try to wake the baby up .

How can I prepare my baby for the photoshoot?
Drink lots of water 5-7 days prior to your appointment. Fetal position is the number one determination of image quality . Some babies come ready to show off while others can get shy. Sometimes the baby turns into your back or will burry their face in the placenta . Little hands and feet can further obstruct the baby’s face. A rescan can be scheduled.
Do the technicians have training ?
All of our Imaging technicians have been specifically trained to do prenatal ultrasound imaging . We use state of the art ultrasound equipment that is specially calibrated for OB and fetal imaging .
What is Sneek Peek DNA? And does it hurt ?
Bonding Moments offers an early gender DNA detection test to women starting at 6 weeks into pregnancy. We work in conjunction with Gateway Genomics to offer Sneak Peek DNA Clinical. Results are available 2-3 days after the lab receives your sample or the next evening if you choose to Fast Track for an additional $20 fee. You will receive an email with your results.
The Sneak Peek DNA Clinical test utilizes the natural process of shared fetal DNA circulating inside the mother's bloodstream. PCR technology can detect the presence or absence of male Y chromosome in the blood sample. If it is detected, then the baby's gender is male and if it is not detected then the baby's gender is female. The best part is its painless. We do ask if you have small childeren to have someone come with you . We can have no male DNA in the room due to cross contamination.
