Well, husband and I had our 3D and 4D ultrasound appointment yesterday...
WHAT a disappointment. The ambiance of the room was lovely, a large, comfortable bed, a fireplace, nice couches for our family to view the large flat screen with. BUT, the quality of the ultrasounds (mostly my fault, I do believe that) was poor at best.
It cost us $200.00 for 35 minutes.
BUT, what they DIDN'T tell us prior to making the appointment and paying (of course!) is that
1) An Anterior Placenta will make it HELL trying to capture images.
2) REGARDLESS of what your diet is, when you are far enough along, your amniotic fluid changes color and becomes cloudy (lesser quality images)
While it may not seem like MUCH for reasons, we obtained 2 IMAGES!!! $200 for 2 IMAGES! While the images we obtained were precious (what you could actually see of them) not hardly worth $100 a piece, in our opinion.
Mind you, I am NOT bashing the ultrasound clinic, these are just things I wish I had been told BEFORE I paid what we did...
Just keep the above in mind. That being said, we do LOVE the two pictures we obtained, just bawked at the $200 price tag for 2 pictures.
