Before I share some of the 90+ 5 star reviews, Peek-A-Bump Ultrasound has, let’s talk about some of the reasons why you might choose to get an elective prenatal ultrasound.
For some folks, there are multiple reasons they would choose to come to Peek-A-Bump Ultrasound.The delay in getting their first prenatal ultrasound, others might be juggling work or schedule conflicts where partners are not able to attend their medical ultrasounds.
The desire to watch your baby grow and see how the hard work you are doing in pregnancy while growing this new little one,
Others might be anxious to find out the gender or confirm the gender of their baby earlier than waiting all the way till 20 weeks for your anatomy scan, that’s if you can even get in exactly at 20 weeks, often there is a delay in being able to schedule your ultrasound appointments with local Medical practices.
For some women, the anxiety of pregnancy feels overwhelming and allowing themselves to have a bit of peace of mind getting to see their baby is priceless. This includes women who have gone through a miscarriage previously and hold extra anxiety waiting for the good news of a healthy growing baby. Pregnancy tests or HCG numbers don’t provide the same peace of mind as seeing your baby grow!
For those coming in for a 3D ultrasound, they get to experience meeting their baby in a whole different dimension, compared to the regular 2D ultrasound provided at medical offices. It goes from a picture to meeting your baby and seeing who they look like, seeing their mannerisms, seeing some of their expressions. Do they like to sleep with their hands by their face? Are they thumb suckers? Are they toe suckers? A 3D ultrasound gives women a peak into the life in their womb, which is why we say that getting an ultrasound with us is like going on a womb date with baby, it allows you time to get to know them a little bit better.
For example, the ultrasound I did yesterday showed the little girl loved her hands, she kept playing with her hands. She kept stuffing her fingers in her mouth, these little personality traits are something her parents would not have known about had they not come in for a 3D ultrasound.
The other positive of getting an elective ultrasound at Peek-A-Bump is that because we’re nondiagnostic,so we are focusing on allowing you to see your baby. We were showing you the beauty of them, showing you their personality and a warm non-clinical family friendly setting.
Older siblings get to enjoy meeting their baby sibling and the fact of a coming sibling becomes more of a reality for them! They build a bond too! And if they get a little bored because their sibling is not as fun as Bluey, we’ve got you covered. We have a corner set up, specially for kids with some toys to play with, so you can relax and enjoy your time with your new little one.
Some women opt to come by themselves and take a moment to step away from the hustle and bustle of life and take a moment in their pregnancy to focus on the new little life growing within!
Self-care can look like getting your hair done or your nails done or coming in to a cute comfortable studio to see their baby!
Don’t take my word for it here is half a dozen reviews we have received recently which only fuels my passion for Peek-a-Bump ultrasound!
Why Parents Choose Elective Ultrasounds – In Their Own Words
Before I share some of the 80+ five-star reviews Peek-A-Bump Ultrasound has received, let’s talk about a few reasons why you might choose to get an elective prenatal ultrasound.
For many families, there’s more than one reason to visit Peek-A-Bump Ultrasound. Some experience delays in getting their first prenatal ultrasound. Others may be juggling work or dealing with scheduling conflicts that make it hard for their partner to attend medical appointments.
Some parents simply want to watch their baby grow — to connect with the life they’re nurturing. It’s rewarding to see the little one you’re working so hard to grow.
Many are eager to find out or confirm their baby’s gender before the standard 20-week anatomy scan — and that’s assuming you can even get scheduled right at 20 weeks. Local medical offices are often booked out, leading to delays.
For some women, the anxiety of pregnancy can feel overwhelming. Seeing their baby on screen brings peace of mind that no pregnancy test or HCG number can match. This is especially true for those who have previously experienced miscarriage and are seeking reassurance that their baby is growing healthy and strong.
For families coming in for a 3D ultrasound, it’s an entirely different experience than the standard 2D images typically offered at medical appointments. It’s not just a picture — it’s a chance to meet your baby. You can see who they might look like, catch a glimpse of their mannerisms, and watch their expressions. Do they sleep with their hands by their face? Are they thumb suckers? Toe suckers? A 3D ultrasound offers a peek into life in the womb, which is why we say getting an ultrasound with us is like going on a “womb date” with your baby — a special chance to get to know them a little better.
Just yesterday, I did an ultrasound for a little girl who loved her hands — she kept playing with them and stuffing her fingers into her mouth. These sweet personality traits are things her parents wouldn’t have known without coming in for a 3D ultrasound.
Another benefit of getting an elective ultrasound at Peek-A-Bump is that because we’re nondiagnostic, the focus is entirely on allowing you to see your baby. We're here to showcase their beauty, their personality, and to do it all in a warm, non-clinical, family-friendly environment.
Older siblings also get to join in the experience. Meeting their baby brother or sister makes the idea of a new sibling feel more real — it helps build a bond! And if they get a little bored because their sibling isn’t quite as entertaining as Bluey, we’ve got that covered. Our kid-friendly play corner is set up with toys to keep little ones busy so you can relax and enjoy your time with your baby.
Some women choose to come on their own — to step away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and take a quiet moment in pregnancy to focus on the new little life growing within them.
Self-care might look like getting your hair or nails done… or it might mean visiting a cozy, welcoming studio to see your baby.
But don’t just take my word for it. Here are just a few of the many glowing reviews we’ve received — they fuel my passion for what we do at Peek-A-Bump Ultrasound every single day!
Ascher Coleman:
“This was such an amazing experience! Roxana was amazing at getting images of our little girl! Plus, the things you get to take home after are more than worth the price. The app integration so you have a video of your ultrasound, the heartbeat stuffed animals you can buy, it’s all so wonderful! So excited to come back in a few weeks for my 3D scan!”
Heather Rankin: “I cannot recommend this place enough! She really made the whole experience so amazing! My little guy was being so stubborn and hiding a lot and she really went above and beyond to try to give us the best pictures she could. If you are contemplating doing a 3D scan, just do it! Such a friendly, warm and welcoming person and environment. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would!”
Aisha Jurado: This is our second time with Roxana and I’m happy we went back again each time is a good experience, the studio looks beautiful and just moved locations to a place with great parking !! Highly recommend going here she gives also enough time for baby to be able to move around for different photos
Juliana Cosper: We can’t recommend Roxana enough if you’re looking for peace of mind in those early days, an early gender reveal, or a fun 3D ultrasound. Throughout my pregnancy, we went in four times and every visit was full of kindness, excitement, and lots of knowledge (and cookies!). She really loves what she does and made the whole experience so special for us. We’ll definitely be back for any future pregnancies and always tell our expecting friends to go see her
Gabrielle Waslohn: Roxana has done ultrasounds for all of our babies and it has been so fun to have her be a special part of our journey each time. She is so fun to be around and makes each appointment so special and fun. She even let my daughter help scan our baby! We are so thankful for the part she has played in our family’s journey.
Lydia Sorescu: Roxana was absolutely amazing!! Welcoming and such a joy. Her new clinic is spacious with a beautiful ultrasound room set up. It was nice and dim in the room, cozy place and comfortable. Tv screen on the wall so mom on the table can see the little one on the big screen. We wanted the gender to be a surprise, and Roxana made sure to put the gender in an envelope and was extra cautious during the ultrasound as to not have baby expose itself. The waiting room had so many cute items to look through; teddy bear heartbeats, some baby items, confetti poppers and so much more. Definitely worth the trip!!
