| 3d/4d scans - any regret?
hi, i know this must seem like a stupid question, but im just making up my mind on wether to book a 3d/4d scan or not. At first i didnt want one as i wanted it to be a surprise what the baby looks like, but then i heard all your lovely experiences and thought that as this will be my last pregnancy and ive never had one before i should get one and so now im all  !! why cant i make my mind up  As anyone had one and wishes they hadnt or is it really that good  | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I have a regret, I wish I'd have waited untill 28 weeks. Even though mine was absolutely brilliant and since I saw it I feel so much closer to my belly! She's a real person. Ahh, I can't even explain it. I just wanted to pick her up off the screen.. Sorry you wanted negatives.  | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I have absolutely no regrets!
Had one done at 16 weeks and baby looked amazing and I found out the gender.
If I had not have had it done I would have been even more disappointed at my normal 20 week scan that occurred last week. Here, we get one scan only and it is at 20 weeks. I saw the baby for less than 2 minutes at the 20 week scan! The saving grace was that I had already seen baby during a 3D scan and will also be going back in June for another 3D scan when I am around 29 weeks.
No regrets whatsoever! | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | I guess my only regret is taking my kids. During the 30 minute scan they kept arguing over a book, and then asking when we were going home. 
Truly, I don't think anyone really has any regrets about having one done. All the feedback I have heard is that it was amazing!  | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I suggest waiting until around 27-28 weeks. And just go for it. I love mine SO much, I can't believe how amazing it was! | | | | Status: Offline
