Did you have a 3D/4D scan in 3rd trimester and did it spoil the surprise????

Uh noooo.... was still a surprise....

I can't believe people have said that to you.... ridiculous.

I had mine done at around 28.5 weeks. And all we thought was "geez she looks like her brother"..which we expected.

And she doesn't really look like her brother at all now.....

I had a 3D scan at 20 weeks, but the baby kept turning its face away and we couldn't get a good angle.

People keep asking me if I'm going to get another scan, but I thought the 20 week one was the only "routine" one they did.

Is it costing you much to get done?

We had a scan with DD at 35 weeks and at the time we didn't think she would come out looking exactly like that because scans always seem a little distorted..But when she did come out it really was a spitting image of her! But in no way did it spoil the surprise. It's very different when you actually meet them face to face.

Have fun!

I had one last time at around 32 weeks. He didn't look like that at birth so no surprise spoilt there. Although how can it? Seeing them in the flesh is so much better anyway, i dont think anyone would think it was spoilt. I'm having one this time too in around 4 weeks and can't wait!

After Caleb was born I thought he didn't look much like his 3D scan but when I looked at them again there was some resemblance there. It's not like looking at a perfect image though.
Will be interesting to see what this one looks like when she comes out! We think she looks like Angus in my ticker picture.

We had a 3d scan at 28 weeks, here is a pic https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...93&ppuser=2398
I'm glad we had it done. We wanted to double check that we were expecting a girl, and it was amazing the difference between 20 weeks, and 28 weeks!

Gee, how can a scan compete with holding and cuddling your baby for the first time - what are these people thinking??? It's not like the first thing you do is pull out your scan photos and compare

I had one at 29 weeks and it was beautiful to see him moving around. Go for it honey!

Thanks girls!! DH and I are super excited about having it on Sat. We don't feel it's going to give away too much of what our baby looks like!! I suppose there will always be people saying negative things about anything huh?? maybe they could just keep it to themselves!

For those who asked, it's only $165 and having it done at a place in south brisbane. includes 20min DVD with music, photo album full of photos, and CD with photos on it to share with family etc. They are the cheapest in QLD I believe and have the best technology also. If anyone wants the website i'll PM you. Also our family can come in with us if they want but we aren't doing that as the gender is a secret from everyone, only we know what bub is. They also offer the screening live over the net for family/friends but we aren't doing that either... it's all part of it though...

We look forward to getting our baby's gender confirmed to us yet again, even though our last sonographer was 99% sure on what bub is and was very experienced.... it will be nice to have that reassurance once more. and to see that cute little face for the first time!!!!
