You may remember me mentioning in my 28 week pregnancy update that two weeks ago I got the amazing privilege of seeing something that is truly amazing. I saw my baby in 3d/4d! I didn’t do this with my first son, but really wanted to try it this pregnancy as my husband is deployed and I thought it would be a neat way for him to see what was actually happening while he was away.
After looking into my options, it became clear the leader in the 3d/4d imagery field here in Las Vegas was Baby’s First Image. Maria has been doing ultrasounds for nearly 20 years now. She is a veteran of the US Navy and a trained Ultrasound Technetium. Maria is thrilled to be able to offer this service to both local Las Vegas families and visitors.
“Often times couples come to Las Vegas for a vacation, and since there isn’t much to do here for a pregnant mother, her spouse will surprise her with a 3d/4d ultrasound. I have had people come from all over the world to my office for this service.” – Maria (Owner of Baby’s First Image)
When I stepped into the office I could see why her service is so popular. She really caters to the expecting parents and their family!
We are proud to serve in the Southwest Las Vegas area since 2006. Through the art of 3D/4D Technology, we make bonding with your little Rock Star fun and an unforgettable experience — a once-in-a-lifetime moment for parents-to-be to treasure! Enjoy this special event with your family and guests in our large and comfortable viewing room, equipped with our 100” screen as a personal screening of your baby.
The “viewing room” was huge and very comfortable for mom and family! I imagine Maria worked really hard to make sure everyone was comfortable during the screening so that the focus was truly on the baby and the experience.
I came in for the “Peek-A-Boo” Session and was so excited to see my little man! I was just hoping he would cooperate! Baby’s First Image has a wide variety of packages and add-ons so that each family can tailor it to fit their needs!
Upon arrival I was greeted by Maria and my son as well as good friend and her son were escorted into the viewing room. I had brought my friend Alex for backup with Squishy, but didn’t plan on our two boys having so much energy. Thankfully Maria was very sweet about the whole thing, and we were able to get them settled for a bit and see my baby Monster Truck!
Baby Monster Truck is gorgeous! I was so in awe of everything I saw. I learned that he was still breech (28 weeks, so plenty of time for him to flip still), with his legs high over his head. Many times during the session he bumped his knees into his face! I saw his cord, and of course no one could miss those chubby cheeks! We had a gender verification, but it took awhile to see as he was covering his privates with his hand! Silly baby!
I was so surprised by how much he looked like Squishy did when he was born. Maria even showed us that we could see his hair! I loved every second of the session and seeing my little man. At the end of the session I was given my photos on a CD, my DVD of the session, and so hard copies to add to his baby book! I couldn’t wait to send them off to my husband!
My husband was so giddy after seeing them. He loved seeing our second son in such detail. That was a gift that I would do again and again if I could!
Thank you Baby’s First Image for such a great and comfortable experience. If you have a chance to see you baby like this, I highly recommend it. Truly a little miracle of modern technology!

Oh my, he IS adorable! I LOVE this! We had SO many ultrasounds with Baby Brother, but he was NEVER positioned right to get shots like that. So fun! 🙂
Emily says
Thank you! I was surprised by how much squish his cheeks had already!
Jenilee says
Awwww! I’ve never had a 3D ultrasound, they don’t offer them in my area, but this sounds like an AMAZING experience!
Shauna says
what a wonderful experience… technology has come such a long way! I am happy you were able to experience such a miricle!
Shauna says
‘miracle’

The 3D imaging is so amazing! Your baby is beautiful! I wish every expecting mom could have one.
Jessica Snow says
Awe, this is so amazing. I’ve never seen this before. I’m really impressed by who clear the image is. What a beautiful baby and what a beautiful family he will be born into.
Thank you for sharing such a wonderful miracle with us. =)
Jen says
That’s so cool. I had a 3D via my Dr with my first, but didn’t have that option with my second. Somehow I didn’t realize these free standing locations were an option, otherwise I would have done one for sure. I am sad that I don’t have one of her. The place looks really nice too!
amber says
Amazing isn’t it. I didn’t have this experience with my first two but with our last we did. Everything they told us was right on. We had it done at 30 wks and then he came early at 34 wks. It actually helped me while in preterm labor because I kept thinking he was already a good weight at that u/s and everything had looked well. Thank goodness it was. Your little monster truck is already precious.
Amber Edwards says
That is such a neat experience! I have always wanted a 3D ultrasound, but they were never offered with all 3 of my children. Well..they said we could always go elsewhere to get them done but that our insurance wouldn’t cover it and we’d have to pay the $600 to do it. 🙁 TO me it wasn’t worth it….but I’m hoping next time the Dr. offer we choose will offer it to their patients.

It just amazes me how far technology has come since I was pregnant in 1997! That place looks really cool, they really seem to go all out to make everyone enjoy the experience!
Felissa (Two Little Cavaliers) says
That is amazing how much detail you can see of your baby. Sounds like this was a great experience for expectant parents.
Carrie Phelps says
What amazing beautiful pictures. Ultra sounds have come a long way since my first 29 years ago!!
Bekah Kuczenski says
What a cute place, I love all the pics! This is such a great way to share your pregnancy with your hubby!
jenna tomaszewski says
That is just the neatest thing. I hope to do that for my first child. My husband always jokes until he can see the baby they are an alien, maybe this could change his mind. Such a blessing that you were able to do this to send to your husband.
Tricia Nightowlmama says
so precious I bet your even more excited now
Olivia L says
I did this with my first and I was really impressed with how much she looked like her ultrasound when she was born!
Terra Heck says
That is really neat! And it definitely beats the quality of regular ultrasounds. The office seems like a welcoming place and is so much prettier than a dr.’s office.
Donna says
How awesome! I wish they had 3D ultrasounds when I was pregnant.
Guadalupe says
Wow, this article is pleasant, my younger sister is analyzing these things, thus
I am going to let know her.
