Blooming Bellies Boutique 3D Ultrasound offers 3D and 4D keepsake imaging sessions, plus dedicated gender reveal scans from a fixed studio in Chicago, with appointments typically opening from 6 weeks of pregnancy. A typical visit is about 20 minutes including positioning time, with the session displayed live on a screen the family can see — partners and immediate family are welcome at almost every studio in this network.
Published session pricing at this studio starts at $100 for 3D/4D and $90 for a gender determination scan. Studios in this network publish their full price list openly so families can compare without a phone call. The broader US market for 3D / 4D keepsake sessions currently ranges from $99–$169 for a single visit and $199–$239 for two-visit packages, so you can sanity-check this listing against the wider category.
Like every other studio in this directory, Blooming Bellies Boutique 3D Ultrasound is operated by a sonographer holding an external professional credential (RDMS, ARDMS, ASUM, DMU, CASE, or BMUS). That credential is a site-wide gate — every listing on Boutique Ultrasound must clear it. We also publish the FDA's position on non-medical fetal imaging openly — read our safety position for what that means in practice and the four operational safeguards (credentialed operator, ≤15 minute session, ALARA practice, mandatory non-diagnostic disclaimer) that every studio on this list applies. Keepsake ultrasound does not replace medical prenatal care — please continue all OB-scheduled appointments.

The questions families ask most before booking a keepsake scan.
Keepsake ultrasound at this studio uses the same low-power 2D/3D/4D ultrasound technology used in routine prenatal care. Sessions are kept under 15 minutes per ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) safety guidance. This service is non-diagnostic and does not replace medical prenatal care.
Most studios recommend 26–32 weeks for the clearest 3D/4D facial features — the baby has enough fat to define features but is still small enough to capture in frame. HD Live (also called 5D ultrasound) works well from 24 weeks onward. Gender reveal scans are accurate from 14 weeks.
3D produces still images of the baby in three dimensions. 4D adds real-time motion (so it's like a 3D video). HD Live (also called 5D ultrasound) layers cinematic lighting and depth onto the 4D rendering for the most realistic look — it's the same data, rendered with a more advanced visualization engine.
No. Keepsake (elective) ultrasound is non-diagnostic and does not require a referral. You should still attend all medically-indicated ultrasound appointments scheduled by your OB/GYN.
Most 3D/4D sessions are 15–30 minutes including positioning time. HD Live (also called 5D ultrasound) sessions are similar. Gender reveal scans can be as short as 10 minutes.
Most 3D/4D keepsake sessions in major US cities run $99–$169 for a single visit, $199–$239 for two-visit packages. Gender-only 2D scans start around $59–$69. HD Live (also called 5D ultrasound) upgrades typically add $30–$50 to a 3D/4D session. See pricing on this studio's listing for exact rates.
Most of the time yes, but it depends on baby's position, mom's body composition, and how active the baby is on the day. Many studios offer a free re-do appointment if the baby is in an unfavourable position.
Yes. Every studio listed on Boutique Ultrasound is operated by a credentialed sonographer (RDMS, ARDMS, ASUM, DMU, CASE, or BMUS). This is a site-wide quality gate, not an upgrade — you can trust any listing.
