3D Miracles – 3D Ultrasound Halifax

I went in at 18 weeks mostly for a gender determination. The receptionist, Tori, was very helpful and got excited with me. I liked that she seemed to genuinely care. The experience we had when we got in the room was amazing. The room was very spacious — enough to fit quite a few people comfortably. No one had to look at the little screen either. There was a big screen for the people in the room to watch while the scan was being done. Kathy was so incredible and told us little facts about the baby at that stage. We’re going back at 31 weeks for another peek!
I would recommend this place to any family. AWESOME experience :)

I had a great experience at 3D Miracles. I purchased the basic package and first visited at around 20 weeks, mainly for the gender determination. It was a few days after my 20 weeks ultrasound at the hospital, and naturally it was a completely different experience! At the hospital you are only allowed one support person, it was very busy and we had to use a room with only one monitor so I had to crane my neck to try and see my baby as the sonographer worked. The setup at 3D miracles was much, much more comfortable for myself and for my family, who were able to watch ultrasound along with me on a big screen tv while seated comfortably on plush couches.
During my first appointment, The gender determination went off without a hitch and left us without a single doubt that we were having a baby boy. As much as you hear stories about people finding out the gender of their baby only to be surprised at the birth that it was a mistake, there was NO mistaking what we saw. Throughout the ultrasound, my baby was curled up with his hand cradled by his face and so it wasn’t possible to see his face at all. Kathy tried all of her tricks to try and get him to move, but baby boy was too cosy and stubborn. However, because we couldn’t get a clear picture of his face, we were invited back for a second appointment free of charge. Despite his position, I still loved the pictures of him curled up and was really happy overall.
I waited until I was closer to 27 weeks for the second appointment to give the baby time to grow. This time Kathy was able to get a variety of really neat pictures. She did an amazing job and is a true professional. I was skeptical about 3D ultrasounds in general and was actually given the package as a gift, but looking back I am really pleased and glad that I went. Having a glimpse at my baby’s face was one of my absolute favorite moments during my pregnancy.
