Elective ‘sneak peek’ ultrasounds
Even if you are not a client with us, you can have an fun ultrasound made in our practice in Amsterdam. However, due to the Corona virus, fun ultrasounds (sex and 3D ultrasounds) cannot be performed until at least the end of April.With every ultrasound we do a medical check-up with your child. Sometimes specific details are visible and need further examination. You can make an appointment by telephone or via our contact form.
2D, 3D and 4D ‘sneak peek’ ultrasounds
Up to 36 weeks, we will show your child in 2D (black and white). The body contours and organ structures of your child are clearly visible on this ultrasound. From ± 24 weeks you can also have 3D and even 4D echoes made (real-time moving images). Thanks to our advanced echo devices, the Voluson E10 and the E6, you can admire your child in perspective and in color.
Make an appointment for an (sneek peek) ultrasound here --> due to the Corona virus it's not possible to make appointments for fun ultrasounds till at least eind of april.
Ultrasounds videos and photos
Afterwards we always give you a set of printed photos (in black and white). You will receive one color print photo of your choice from the most beautiful photo. We also send the photos to your phone or mail them to you. We can also put the material on a USB stick. (We charge € 5 for a USB stick.)
Early structure and gender determination scan
Can’t wait to find out your baby’s gender? From week 13/14 and onward, your little one is fully formed which means we can take a good look at the brain, hands, feet, and organs – including gender.
Particularities: Around this time your child will often lie upright in the womb. Do not go to the bathroom one hour before the scan. A full bladder lifts your uterus a little, so that we can better visualize the gender.
Duration: 20 minutes
Costs: An individual gender determination ultrasound costs € 50. (This ultrasound is included in our Basis+ and Premium packages.)
Growth ultrasounds from 24 weeks
From 24 weeks you can have a growth echo made every 2 weeks. We monitor if your baby is growing in a normal line. A suddenly increase of the growth can be caused by pregnancy diabetes and a decrease of the growth might be caused by placental problems. We will refer you in these situations to a gynecologist. During a growth ultrasound we will measure the size of your baby’s head, abdomen and legs. These values are entered into a graph. We will repeat the scan every two weeks to accurately monitor the growth of your baby. We will also monitor the amount of amniotic fluid present. We check the amount of amniotic fluid and the position of your baby.
Particularities: Do not go to the bathroom one hour before the ultrasound. A full bladder lifts your uterus a little, so that we can better visualize the gender.
Duration: 20 minutes
Costs: An individual growth ultrasound costs € 50. (All growth ultrasounds are included in our Basis+ and Premium packages.)
Elective ‘sneak peek’ ultrasound in colour (3D/4D ultrasound + HD Live)
Starting at around 24 weeks, we can conduct an full-colour ultrasound. This scan allows you to take a good look at your baby in perspective and in colour. Whether you get beautiful images depends on the position of your child, the amount of amniotic fluid and the position of the placenta. The 3D ultrasound consists of multiple 2D images. A 4D ultrasound is a moving 3D.
Particularities: It is best to have this ultrasound between 26 and 30 weeks. Your child has already developed some fat on his or her face and there is still relatively much amniotic fluid. The closer you get to 40 weeks, the harder it will be to get a good 3D or 4D image.
Duration: 20 to 30 minutes
Costs: An individual Fun Ultrasound costs € 110. (This Fun ultrasound is included in our Basis+ and Premium packages.)
