sweety
I had a 3D ultrasound during my 31st week of pregnancy... Now I am 33 weeks and 2 days... A girl who did it was new... Have not seen her there before... The same day I saw my doc shouting at her for doing some blunder...
She was the one who did a 3D U/S for me... When it was being done, the baby was constantly having his face covered with his left hand... Just to make him remove his face and see his face clearly, this girl kept pressing my tummy hard with the scanner... Would that have hurt my baby?? Would that scanner have hit my baby's head and caused any damage?
Would this be the reason why my baby is not moving much these days? Please help me.. I am really worried to have hurt my baby with the U/S... I already love my baby a lot and dont want him to get hurt in anyway...

It's very normal around 30+ weeks for the baby's movements to not feeling as frequent or strong as before. The baby is getting bigger and has less room to move. He's also taking up more space and there is less amniotic fluid so it's more difficult for him to move around. It's totally normal. If you are really concerned call your doctor. Typically they say to drink some orange juice and then lie on your left side to increase blood flow. While resting, count over a 60 minute period how many times you feel the baby move. You should feel about 10+ movements/ hour. If you don't call your doctor and explain your concerns. They will probably want you to come in for an ultrasound or just to make sure all is ok.
My ultrasound tech bounced my guy around a lot too trying to get him to move his hand out to the way too. It felt like she did it way too hard, but it didn't affect him and my guess is that he's just running out of room to move.
Congrats!

What's the difference between a 3D ultrasound and a 4D ultrasound?

Answer
3D and 4D (moving 3D pictures) scanning gives amazing three dimensional picture of your baby on the screen. Your baby can be seen moving, yawning, sucking its thumb and even apparently smiling.
The equipment uses sophisticated techniques, transforming the traditional 2D scan such as the one that you have at the hospital into a 3D and 4D images.
The scan uses the same ultrasound output levels as the hospital based 2D scanners and as the machine actually generates the image, the exposure time is minimised. The safety of ultrasound is constantly evaluated and the British Medical Ultrasound Society (BMUS) has produced documents to ensure its safe use.
With this in mind, your scan will only be performed by someone who holds a recognised medical or ultrasound qualification and who is registered with the appropriate professional bodies.
Hope this helps!! :)
