One use of the ultrasound is familiar to all of us. This is the employment of the ultrasound during pregnancy. An Ultrasound can be used to verify the growth and development of a live, soft tissue in the human body. This feature of ultrasound makes it useful in studying the development of the fetuses. In obstetrics and gynecology the ultrasound is employed in prenatal care.
Ultrasound has numerous applications in pregnancy. Physicians use ultrasound to verify pregnancy and to identify as well as diagnose vaginal bleeding in the early stages of the pregnancy itself. It is also employed to detect fetal abnormalities and malformations along with defects of the fetus. Ultrasound is also helpful in determining the location of the placenta which is an organ which connects the developing fetus to the uterine wall.
An Ultrasound can also be used to identify problems with the amniotic fluid. Assessment of fetal growth also becomes possible through the ultrasound. This assessment is extremely important in determining the date of birth. This is done by taking the measurements of the fetus, from the top of the head to the bottom of the feet. The measurement of the femur (the long bone in the upper thigh) and measurement of the head are also done.
Certain types of ultrasounds are also used to treat congenital defects. It is possible for the doctors to treat such problems while the baby is still in the womb. The four dimensions of the ultrasound techniques can give the expecting mothers and the physicians moving fetal images. Physicians employ these images to diagnose the cases of birth defects, along with many other fetal-maternal problems that can arise during pregnancy.
These days there are private companies which provide the expecting mothers with a photo of the baby. Since the safety of such ventures is not known, expecting mothers are advised to stay away. Ultrasound, in short, has revolutionized pregnancy.

I wasn't sure if I wanted to do 3D ultrasound pictures or not, because I'm sure most people can agree that the babies kinda look a bit scary in some of them ;) Especially if they are super wiggly. It's hard to get a good focused picture, but it gives you a good look of what they'll look like. It's always crazy seeing baby once they're out compared to a 3D! Anyway, we decided to do it for fun, cuz why not?! I'm so glad we did! It was so cute seeing him move around! I swear I can flip through these pictures all day and not get bored seeing our little boys face :) M-F 10am-8pm Saturday and Sunday 10am-4pm.
