While often used interchangeably, “ultrasound” and “sonogram” actually describe different aspects of the same procedure. The entire imaging process is called “ultrasound.” A “sonogram” refers to the actual image that is created from the ultrasound process 🙂

A Picture Worth A Thousand Words
It’s common for primary care providers to hold off on sonograms until 12 weeks into pregnancy, which, if you ask us, is a total shame. Seeing early pictures of your baby can provide excitement and even relief to parents.
Well, we don’t follow those rules! The Sonography Studio offers ultrasounds in Sioux Falls starting at 6 weeks into your pregnancy so you can feel a little less anxious and get to feeling a lot more excited!

Our Approach to Ultrasounds
At The Sonography Studio, each ultrasound in Sioux Falls receives our personalized touch. We offer joyful and encouraging care that reflects the thrill of welcoming your newborn.
Why would anyone want to work in a cold, clinical doctor’s office? We prefer a calming, spa-like environment—and we know you will, too.


Our Process

Scheduling
Following the sixth week of your pregnancy, you’re welcome to make an appointment with us. We’re just as excited as you are!

Ultrasound
We’ll image your womb with an ultrasound device at your session, sliding it across your baby bump. If you are less than 10 weeks, we may need to do a transvaginal ultrasound so we can get the best pictures of your little love. No nook or cranny can hide from our experienced technicians!

Results
Once the ultrasound is done, we’ll send you home with physical photos and all the images and videos on the Momitalk app.

Because ultrasounds are completely noninvasive, there’s no extensive preparation required for your ultrasound in Sioux Falls.
To get the most out of your session, drink a gallon of water daily for the three days leading up to it. While you might need more bathroom breaks, the extra fluids will give us better ultrasound images.
We also want you to be aware that if you have a BMI of over 30, anterior placenta, or low amniotic fluid, this can hinder image quality.
- Things that may hinder image quality that are out of our control and may result in lower image quality: Low amount of fluid around baby, anterior placenta, BMI >30, position of baby. While we do our very best to get everyone great imaging, sometimes these things are out of our control. It’s too bad we can’t get inside to physically take a look!
- “See your baby maybe”: This is a guideline we have in place if you are 27-32 weeks and come in for a prime time scan of any kind. If we get images of only the ear, back of head, if baby’s hands and feet are completely covering the face, or if baby is facing your back, you can come in again within 2 weeks of your original scan at no additional cost. For all other gestational ages, this guideline does not apply.
- Gender Reveals: If we are unable to see the baby’s gender the first ultrasound, you can come back again within two weeks for us to try again at no additional cost from your original scan. We will try our very best to confirm.

Gender reveal packages are available during your ultrasound in Sioux Falls at The Sonography Studio. You can find out your baby’s gender after 14 weeks of pregnancy with a sonogram—or! as early as 6 weeks with a blood test.
The gender reveal appointment includes an ultrasound where we’ll show you live images of your baby to determine their gender. Wanna keep it under wraps? We’ll give you a sealed reveal envelope to open when you’re ready.
We offer a variety of ultrasound options for your visit. Modern ultrasound technology goes beyond the limitations of traditional 2D sonograms. Through our ultrasound services, we can generate 3D models of your ultrasound in Sioux Falls, offering a clear picture of your baby’s development.
We can also create a “4D” live video showcasing your baby’s movement in your womb. Our cutting-edge “5D” high-resolution ultrasound provides the ultimate in sonogram clarity and detail. It’s almost like we’re living in the future!
We have a solution for you, regardless of your choices.
We’re thrilled to offer our sonography services to any interested mothers. If you’re looking for help with sonogram costs, check if your insurance plan covers FSAs or HSAs. We don’t take traditional insurance or financing for elective ultrasounds, but you can use your FSA or HSA to pay.
If you’re interested in our aesthetic or wellness treatments, like vaginal rejuvenation or pelvic floor treatment, we offer financing options. We collaborate with Cherry to simplify access to our unparalleled care for everyone.
Cherry’s online application process for their flexible payment options is user-friendly. Upon approval, simply request your appointment with us like you normally would. With Cherry, you’ll have your treatment costs covered initially, and you can make payments later.
The gender reveal is the only one that has a requirement that the pregnancy must be 14+ weeks along. That is because week 13 is when gender develops. Anytime Peace of Mind and Prime Time scans can be done ANYTIME throughout the pregnancy. It all depends if you want black-and-white imaging versus new technology. There is a misconception that you can’t get 3D imaging until later in the pregnancy. This isn’t true! It is fun to see your baby in 3D at all stages of the pregnancy.
Our 5D sonogram is actually HD, a “high definition” sonogram.
