New Orleans is famous for its quirky culture, one-of-a-kind food, and lively nightlife, making it a top destination for travelers. But if you’re visiting while expecting, you might be looking for something a little more relaxed—an experience that feels just as special without the late nights and bustling crowds.
At Sweet Pea 3D/4D Ultrasound Nola, we offer elective pregnancy ultrasounds, perfect for moms looking to bond with their babies while on the go. Whether you’re here for a babymoon, a family vacation, or just passing through, our 3D/4D scans let you unwind from all the traveling and connect with your baby in a deeply personal way.
What Is a 3D/4D Ultrasound?
3D/4D ultrasounds go beyond the traditional black-and-white images of a standard pregnancy scan, giving you a more detailed view of your baby’s features.
3D ultrasounds create a still, high-definition image of your baby, letting you see their tiny nose, lips, and fingers with incredible clarity. The process works by compiling multiple two-dimensional images from different angles and forming a three-dimensional rendering, offering a remarkable first glimpse of your baby’s face.
4D ultrasounds take it a step further by capturing movement in real-time, so you might catch your baby yawning, stretching, or even waving hello. The result is a dynamic, video-like experience that makes it feel like you're watching your baby in action.
Unlike medical ultrasounds, which focus on diagnostics and may not always be as engaging or informative during the scan (depending on your facility), Sweet Pea offers a more personal experience. Our registered sonographer will work hard to help you identify and learn about your baby’s many features throughout your session.
Keepsakes You’ll Treasure Forever
A visit to New Orleans is full of unforgettable moments, and your 3D/4D ultrasound should be no different. At Sweet Pea, we make sure you leave your session with more than just memories—we provide keepsakes so that you can relive this special experience again and again.
Each of our 3D/4D pregnancy packages includes take-homes like:
Premium black-and-white and color prints
A family photo by our flower wall with a custom preg-o-meter
An online gallery of images and video clips
8K images (offered as an add-on)
Plus, if you book our Sweet Pea Deluxe package, you’ll receive a complimentary HeartBeat Bear with your baby’s heartbeat recorded inside!
A Memory Worth Sharing

Want to share the experience with loved ones? Our scan room comfortably seats eight, so there’s plenty of room for family and friends to join in.
You’re welcome to bring more guests, though a larger group may make the space feel a bit crowded. However, this is entirely your experience, and we want you to share it with those closest to you. So, if it’s fine with you then it’s perfectly fine with us!
