3D Miracles: A Motion Picture Starring Your Baby!
By Jenna McDonald For Melissa Robinson, it all began with a simple Christmas gift. When she was pregnant for her first child, her husband bought her a gift certificate for a 3D ultrasound. Melissa was so moved by the experience that she has since become the owner of 3D Miracles in Nepean; a service focused on introducing parents to their pre-born babies through 3D Ultrasound technology. In recent years, many new mothers are taking full advantage of businesses like 3D Miracles and are electing to meet their newest addition before their due date. “Studies have shown that a mother who receives a 3D ultrasound will generally take better care of herself after putting a face and body to the child growing inside of them,” Melissa said. “It's a chance to connect with your baby as new parents.” When asked about the concerns some people have surrounding excessive radiation during pregnancy, Melissa said that 3D ultrasounds do not use ionizing radiation like x-rays, but that images are produced using high frequency sound waves. “Extensive studies over 30 years have found that ultrasound has not been shown to cause any harm to mother or baby,” she explained. New moms take note: this is not a run-of-the-mill ultrasound session!
Each ultrasound room is equipped with 3 loveseats to accommodate up to 6 extra guests who will all enjoy the images on a 42" plasma screen. And, just in case 6 guests isn't enough, all packages include a free “live broadcast service”. This service provides up to 50 family and friends with a link to click at the time of the appointment. When the appointment begins, everyone will be able to watch and hear the ultrasound show! For all those moms who treasure a little more mystery regarding the sex of the baby, they need simply alert the technician as it is NOT necessary to have the gender of the child revealed during the session. Extras include hearing the heartbeat, a DVD of the session, and keepsake photos. For more information or to book your appointment contact:
