I would say go for it! It's a once in a lifetime thing! I had to drive 4 hours to Chicago to get it done, I should have got it done when I was in San Diego! Just make sure you talk to your dr about it first. Some Dr's don't agree with having ultrasounds that aren't medically needed. I researched it on the internet and I read that it should be fine as long as you don't have too many ultrasounds done. Also make sure it is a certified ultrasound tech. Also, never do it more than an hour, the place I went to had a limit of 30 mins.
I'm 37wks along, so I should have went in earlier because she was crammed up. I think that's why she was frowning in one of her pics! LOL! They say before 33 weeks is the best bc they have more room. But my first medical ultrasound pic was horrible... it just showed a skeleton
and honestly it wasn't cute at all like my other son's ultrasound pic had been. This technology had just started coming out about 5 years ago when I was pregnant with my first, but it was $600 or so back then! They were having a special for $125 so I had to do it! This is our last baby so it's definately our last chance to do it.
The only bad thing is that I want her out NOW so that I can hold her! The technician said that she has LOTS of hair and cute big cheeks. She said that she is definately a good sized girl.
