  Many expectant mothers may not know that 4D ultrasound is actually used to comprehensively examine the growth and development of the baby through 4D technology. If any developmental abnormalities or other internal organ structural defects are detected in the fetus, timely treatment can be carried out to effectively avoid the birth of problematic fetuses. Generally, 4D ultrasound does not require fasting, but may require holding urine and consuming foods with high sugar content to promote fetal activity.

  Four dimensional ultrasound requires a comprehensive observation of the fetus's physical condition. Sometimes when the baby's position is not good, pregnant mothers need to do more exercises like climbing stairs to make the baby turn over or expose their entire body, in order to avoid examination errors or prolonged examination time.

  At the same time, as mentioned above, pregnant women who undergo four-dimensional testing can also eat sweet foods to guide their babies to produce fetal movements, in order to quickly pass the four-dimensional examination. In addition, gently patting the belly and interacting with the baby can help them stay alert.
