Baby’s First Image

What a fantastic experience! I made an appointment with a groupon I bought for a Friday afternoon gender ultrasound around 12:30 and they saw me at my scheduled appointment time.
It was just me and my husband at the appointment even though you can bring all the family you’d ever want to view images of your unborn baby while your belly is exposed. they have a great set up and a really comfortable space for that if you have family close. For us, our closest family is 5 hours away and even though they can also Skype your family into the appointment I personally enjoy it being just us.
Maria was fantastic and so confident in her skills she knew without us even realizing she was looking what we were having in the first minute she started looking at our baby.
For mothers who really enjoy ultrasound pictures… I went when I was 16 weeks along and I really wish I would have requested more black and white pictures. I didn’t really care for the HD/​3D pictures (which she gave me loads of) because honestly, our sweet baby doesn’t look super great in HD right now. I think I will love them when she (oh yes, baby is a GIRL) has more fat on her face so I will absolutely be back around weeks 24 – 28 to get a better look at her sweet face.

This was the best experience ever. Maria and Maylanie are absolute loves. The room is huge with a big screen and a comfy couch, makes you feel as if you’re at home. My family really loved and enjoyed the experience of seeing their grandbaby and nephew.

Super friendly staff and very clean. Waiting area is a bit small and could use a bit more lighting but I would definitely recommend them if you are looking for a wonderful experience checking on the progress of your baby. Prices are comparable to other 3D ultrasound places we have been to.

Would totally recommend this place!! Maria is very patient in getting a good picture of our 31 weeks son even though he is in a funny position as he is curled with hands and cord covering his face! She knows techniques on how to make the baby turn a certain way to see his face more clearly. We even saw the baby sucking his thumb and yawning it was fantastic!! She would never rush you and you never feel pressured unlike ultrasounds at the doctors office. Thanks again Maria for all that work!!!

We loved this place and Maria. After taking a home pregnancy test I called my doc for a conformation… they told me I couldn’t get in for 3 weeks… I called and was able to get in in an hour. Although I was only about 4.5 weeks and we couldn’t see anything but the gestational sack, I was relieved to know I was actually pregnant and that it wasn’t ectopic. Maria printed me about 10 pictures (when I went back to my doc I got 2 when there was something to actually see and paid more as well) so it made the reveal to our family fun as there was something to see… even if it did look just like a black lima bean haha.
Theres only one ultrasound room, but its huge, you could probably fit a big ol’ Italian family in there, cousins and all, to see the baby or do a gender reveal.
I also really appreciated that she was able (and skilled) enough to do the «through the tummy» device rather than the dreaded probe (which again, my Dr, who I saw 3 weeks farther along insisted was the only way to get a picture.
We will defiantly be going back!

Excellent service and patience for a good photo. She went 10 minutes+ over our time just to get us a great shot of our child.

Went here to get 4D for all 3 of my children, every time the lady was extremely nice and welcoming, keeps conversation flowing, is very patient and friendly. They have deals on they’re website so don’t forget to check that out. Clean and nicely decorated. Big huge screen and enough room to bring up to 5 or 10 family members. Definitely recommend this place. They also give you a little bag before you leave with coupons and samples.

My wife and I went there yesterday. They were so accommodating. We’re surprise how the huge the room was. we forgot the name of the doctor but it started with «M» she’s so nice, she looks excited like us. She’s a filipino like us she even wrote «ako ay babae», «i’m a girl» in filipino.
We purchase the $ 20 to $ 40 deal. We’re definitely going back again!

I’m at 16 weeks and just went here for a 4D ultrasound and a gender check. The staff is very friendly and their facility is clean and inviting. I came here because it’s very exciting to get to see your baby at the doctors office but doctors are in a rush to get you out as quick as they can and try very hard to pretend the baby’s father isn’t in the room. At Baby’s First Image they actually acknowledged my baby’s father and talked to him just as much as me which I appreciated, he’s apart of this too! They don’t rush you and the woman doing our ultrasound seemed like she genuinely cared about us seeing our baby and taking good pictures for us. I will be a returning customer in a couple months!
PLUS They gave me a free «goodie bag» filled with vitamins, breast milk cooler, bottles etc.

Maria, the ultrasound tech is awesome! She makes you feel so special and makes the session truly memorable and fun! The studio is so welcoming and has a great ambiance! Don’t waste your time anywhere else, Babys First Image is where it’s at! Highly highly recommend!

Have been calling to schedule an appointment also had some questions n ofcourse no answer

Ladies were very nice. We didn’t have a long wait, and the room was very comfortable. Lots of goodies in the swag bag.
They were correct not only about my baby being a boy, but about their prediction he was going to have very long legs and arms. He does! Big hands and feet too, he’s going to be tall. Admittedly I assumed that something like that is probably said for all customers, something specific and personal to evoke those warm fuzzy feelings. I thought that at around 20 weeks if he had long legs, he would simply end up growing into them and being more proportionate by birth. But he’s now 3 weeks old and everyone still comments about how small he is now but how tall he’ll be with those long legs and arms :)
The pictures were also very clear. I was always that person who had no clue what I was looking at when looking at ultrasounds, but she walked us through and labeled pictures clearly. I have no problem identifying anything from his pictures.
All in all, great experience. I would go back and have recommended them to friends :)

I’ve been trying to call for days now and not once have they answered their phones. How am I supposed to set an appointment if I can not get in contact with anyone.

Don’t depend on groupon to get a good deal. I literally compared this place to its competition by there reviews and from what I read first baby imaging was the best.
Well I called to make an appointment 5 weeks ago and whoever I spoke with did not give me enough information to save me a 30min drive.
I told the lady that I wanted to find out the gender before my doctor told me since I would have to wait till 20 weeks. My appointment was for today which I am currently 16weeks. Once I arrive the sign in form has a box stating a $ 25 fee would be added to my charge if this was my first ultrasound. It also says that they are not a medical clinic and the information they would provide me is everything a doctor would tell me. So why would I pay you $ 25 if your information is not valid and why wouldn’t someone notify me when I made this appointment 5 weeks ago of this extra charge.
Not only did this sudden news make me upset but I was told to arrive 15min early for me to wait at the front desk for 10min to check in. I also requested the first appointment of the day and there were two groups before me.
I will never return to this facility due to how unprofessional it is run and I even informed them on this review.
This is my first child and I was really looking forward to finding out the gender early but I guess I will have to wait 4 more weeks till a real doctor can give me accurate information.

I recommend this place! Really nice office great machine! It was unbelievable how clear the image was. A++

I LOVED Baby’s first image for six reasons (originally four reasons, but as I started listing stuff I wanted to add more!!):
1. How big the room is! It was awesome, a lot more relaxing than any one I’ve been to! It’s super cute and decorated and just awesome.
2. It is across the street from my OB and down the street from my house, so if I ever feel worried or curious, I can always come here super fast.
3. Maria knows a lot, and you can tell just by talking to her. I have major anxiety and obsess over MC and «what if there is no heartbeat?» but she reassured me that everything is going good and even wiggled my belly and I was able to see my baby move. (I went for a gender check and it’s a girl!)
4. You can text your appointment request! I don’t know if it was her receptionists number or Maria’s but I texted Thursday night, and was able to get an appointment for the next day through text, I thought that was so awesome!
5. The wait was literally only the time I took to fill out my forms, which was one page and super easy. It was definitely less than 4 minutes I think!
6. This is the MOST important to me: Whenever my boyfriend and I go to my appointments or anything, all the nurses ignore him. They don’t even look at him, nothing. It makes him feel less involved and it offends him partially. I know he is trying his best, but it makes him feel less-​worth in the situation, in return, making him less excited. But, Maria talked to him a lot, and even put his last name for the baby. He definitely was not excited to go in with me, but he left really happy! And I think she even excited him that it’s a girl. I’m really happy she wasn’t like all the other nurses or ultra sound techs who only talk to me. I appreciate that the most.
So in 14 weeks, I’m planning on going back to Maria to see our daughter in 3d, I’m super excited, and I already KNOW it’s going to be a great experience!

I agree with Stephanie H. about the woman at the front desk. She was nice at first, but she was not very friendly when she actually had to do any work above what she normally does (she had to pull up, and print a receipt that never got emailed to me. She was very argumentative about their email service sending it to me, yet my inbox is empty, and I’m basically being called a liar. Just print my dang receipt and stop rolling your eyes at me!!!)
Another thing that was off-​putting was a 2 $ card processing fee. Really? After spending 75 $ they can’t let go of an extra 2 $? Super cheap, especially considering the fact that they force feed you formula advertisement!!! Which brings me to my next point…
I didn’t like that I was basically forced to bring home a gigantic bag of enfamil formula and coupons, front office girl just would not drop it and kept insisting that I need to take it! She also handed an enfamil vanilla ‘milk’ to my daughter before we left. We have milk allergies, and we are a strictly nursing family. I made it clear at the beginning that I didn’t want their samples, but they were pretty insistent on me bringing it home, including putting my DVD in a baggie full of formula coupons. I certainly don’t like the feeling that I’m paying for them to advertise formula to me.
The ultra sound tech was nice, however, so at least they have that going for them.
Update: less than a month after my visit here, I started getting mail for enfamil! I guess they use their address forms to sign you up for spam mail!!! Unacceptable and very unprofessional of this business to do!!! Updated my review to one star!

I chose this place due to the high reviews and location. Maelani (sp?) was very welcoming upon on our arrival and our technician, Maria, was very informative with our session. She educated my 2 kids on what they were looking at and within a few minutes she was able to tell what our baby’s gender would be. Overall my experience here was pleasant, I got what I asked for and would use this place again.

This was such a great experience! We found a deal on groupon we couldn’t pass up, and after being told by several friends it wasn’t worth it, we went ahead anyway! Our baby looks exactly as he did in the 4d pictures and the experience was great! The whole thing took about 20 minutes and the lady who preformed the ultrasound was so super sweet! We will definitely be coming back for future babies!

Such a great experience! Customer service is great. The tech is super nice, talkative, and makes the experience worthwhile. She knows what she is doing and made it apparent during my session. You really do get your money’s worth here. We chose the 75 dollar package and it’s more than enough. Extremely clean place as well. I would definitely go back again!

We had a fantastic experience!
We found a $ 37 deal on Living Social, and it included finding out the gender (which we already knew, but it’s good to get a confirmation), hear your baby’s heartbeat, a CD of all the pictures, and a gift bag (that has coupons and formula).
Our baby is a beautiful baby boy! I couldn’t help but be sooo happy to see his handsome face in 3D — even if he tried covering it the whole, entire time with his hands. He even kicked the camera a lot of the time. I got a little fighter, but he’s been like that with every ultrasound I’ve had. He has his daddy’s nose and his mommy’s lips. I can’t wait to meet him in real life… but I, also, can! He has seven more weeks to get happier and healthier!
It’s located in the back of a business plaza, which was a bit hard to find. But the lady working behind the desk was extremely nice and welcoming. The place was clean, and there’s a comfortable, nice waiting area with a television.
The room where the ultrasound is held is comfortable. You lie on a bed while your spouse/​partner, friends, and family sit on couches around. There’s a gigantic screen for everyone to see the baby on.
We completely enjoyed the experience, and we would so recommend this place to anyone who wants to meet their little one before they arrive!
Thank you, Maria!

The technician was friendly, took her time, and was accurate in determining my baby’s gender at 16 weeks. We never got any good pictures of her profile, but honestly all I really cared about at the time was finding out the gender. Overall a very nice experience.

I received a flyer for this place from my OBGYN. My Husband and I were really antsy about finding out the sex so we decided to come here for the gender check. We purchased a Unilocal deal ($ 75 package for $ 50).
They were a little behind schedule when we arrived so the wait was about 20 – 30 minutes. Didn’t bother me but my husband is super impatient lol so he was a little annoyed.
I like this place. The only thing I didn’t like was the couches in the waiting area. They do look a little dirty and the seats are so low and the cushions sink so much I couldn’t help but laugh at the thought of all the very pregnant women having a hard time getting up off those things.
Also for some reason the whole place kind of smelled like farts. I hate to say it, maybe my sense of smell is a little sensitive right now but I think maybe they should have some kind of air freshener in there or leave the door partially open, the waiting room is very small and looks like it can get over crowded easily since they encourage you to bring more people with you.
Overall, The staff was very friendly and the pictures came out great. We might be going back once I am further along to see the features of our little guy.

I have had a few ultrasounds and this experience was by far the best! Maria is fantastic! Honored my group on and treated me and my guests to a show of the baby. It was fun and informing. I was used to a tech just scanning and expecting us to guess until we see pictures. She was wonderful and the office was well set up with a huge couch for everyone to sit in and watch.
