Do I search for it on google.


They want them banned because they aren't "medical" ultrasounds. People are claiming they are unsafe and stuff which I don't really believe.

That's not bad considering my .R.E.G.U.L.A.R ultrasounds cost $245 each.

yeah, see *most* 3d and 4d ultrasounds aren't for medical reasons, more just for your viewing pleasure. They don't take measurements of the baby and whatno--so I guess that's hwy it's cheaper.

If I remember correctly--my level 2 with my son was almost $500, thank god I had insurence!

Http://www .Fda.Gov/fdac/features/2004/104_images.Htm l

here's a link to the artical on the fda website. Explaining why they think they should be banned.

I think if it was that seriously they would have been shut down by now.

Lol yeah no kidding! And its not like ultrasounds are new, and 3- and 4-d ultrasounds use exactly the same sound waves as 2d ones which have been around for decades!
