At True Ultrasound in Lake Forest, we know how exciting and emotional your first ultrasound can be. It’s the moment your pregnancy feels real—a first glimpse into the beautiful journey ahead. That’s why we’ve created a clean, cozy, and welcoming clinic where your experience is as memorable as it is comfortable.
Our first-trimester elective pregnancy ultrasounds are performed transabdominally, meaning the procedure is done over the abdomen—non-invasive and stress-free. Here’s what you can expect during your session:
5 Weeks
At just five weeks, we can see the gestational sac and confirm its location. We can also measure the sac, providing valuable insights about this early stage of your pregnancy.
6 Weeks and Beyond
Starting at six weeks, things get even more exciting! We can often detect the fetal pole, the early embryo, and even your baby’s heartbeat—a magical moment that will stay with you forever.
Gender Reveal with SneakPeek®
Eager to know your baby’s gender? With the SneakPeek® Snap blood test, you can find out as early as six weeks! This quick, pain-free test uses advanced technology to give you accurate results so you can start planning for your little one.
Preparation Tips for Under 10 Weeks
If you’re coming in for a 2D ultrasound session before 10 weeks, we recommend arriving with a full bladder. This helps us get the clearest images possible during your ultrasound. During your visit, we’ll also provide your baby’s estimated due date, giving you another milestone to look forward to!
At True Ultrasound, we’re here to celebrate every step of your journey into parenthood. Book your first-trimester ultrasound with us today, and let’s make this special moment unforgettable!
