Before ultrasounds, parents had to wait for a telegram from the stork to determine the gender of their developing babies. See your offspring in real time with today’s Groupon: for $59, you get a Gold 3D and 4D ultrasound package plus $30 toward a future visit at The Inside Story Ultrasound (a $139 value).

The Inside Story Ultrasound lets expectant moms and soon-to-be dads see their unborn offspring from every angle for the very first time. Administered by registered diagnostic medical sonographers and licensed technicians, the Gold 3D/4D ultrasound package is an approximately 20-minute diagnostic ultrasound session during which parents, siblings, and close friends can coo over new additions to expanding families. Viewing rooms are cozy and welcoming as expectant mothers ease onto a spa-like bed before the session. Up to eight friends and family members can take in the panoramic view on a large, plasma, flat-screen monitor as well as two additional VGA monitors, all of which make it easy to view babies as they yawn, stretch, and pontificate.

Four colorized, 4"x6" glossy prints of your 3D– and 4D-rendered babe are available to decorate fridges, a DVD of the 20 minute ultrasound session set to lullaby music, and a disc of 15–30 additional hi-res images make handsome head shots for television producers searching for prenatal superstars. Gender determination is available upon request, and free access to a customizable baby website gives far-flung friends a chance to virtually visit progeny. Gold package clients also get $30 off their next visit to The Inside Story.
