appointment prep guide

Please do not schedule your ultrasound on the same day as your glucose test. After the sugar crash, baby often naps deeply, making it harder to get clear images or movement.

The best time for 3D/4D ultrasounds is between 27–32 weeks (or 24–26 weeks for multiple pregnancies).

After 35 weeks, baby’s size may limit visibility, but every pregnancy is unique, and we’ll always do our best to capture beautiful moments. 

You can book as early as 16 weeks.

Sovara Life specializes in capturing natural and candid moments. We strive to create timeless and beautiful images that you will treasure for years to come.

If you are 6–18 weeks, please arrive with a full bladder. This helps improve visibility during early pregnancy ultrasounds.

A slightly active baby makes for a more engaging session! About 10–15 minutes before your appointment, drink 8 oz of cold apple or orange juice to gently wake baby up.

Avoid large meals beforehand; a light snack is best.
(We also offer small snacks, juice, or candy in-studio if needed.)

Proper hydration helps improve amniotic fluid, resulting in clearer, more detailed images.Avoid caffeine, as it can dehydrate you and reduce image clarity.

We accept cash, credit/debit cards, Apple Pay, and Google Pay.
No personal checks, please.

• Bring a photo ID to every appointment.
• If you are under 18, a parent or guardian with ID must be present.
• You may bring up to 7 guests (Mom + 6). Children are welcome!

• Please ensure phones are turned off or on silent during your session.
• Unauthorized recording or photography is not allowed, as it can interfere with our ultrasound equipment and compromise privacy. 
• Select packages include recordings, and you can always add a digital video or image package when booking.

• Every baby is unique, and every session is special. 
• Even if baby is a little shy, we’ll do everything we can to create meaningful images.
• Sit back, relax, and enjoy the moment—your journey, beautifully seen.
• However, if satisfactory images cannot be obtained due to fetal position, limited visibility, or other uncontrollable circumstances, 
• Sovara Life may offer one complimentary rescan at the discretion of the technician or studio management.

• Wear two-piece clothing—a loose-fitting top and comfortable bottoms—so we can easily access your belly during the scan.
