You can now 3D-print your unborn fetus

"Your pregnancy with this child is a once in a lifetime experience. Recall those feelings with your own 3D Baby.

At 3D Babies, we create an adorable baby figurine resembling your baby's facial features and body position.  We use your 3D/4D ultrasound images or newborn baby pictures to create a unique artistic representation of your baby using the latest computer graphics and 3D printing technologyFor best results, you can schedule your 3D ultrasound during gestation weeks 24-32.  This is a great way to share the excitement of your new baby with family and friends.  Your 3D Baby will be a treasured family remembrance of your pregnancy and new baby."
I haven't decided whether this is a reality or just a concept, because the blog at the company's website discusses crowdfunding.  I'm not going to offer any commentary - res ipsa loquitur and all that.

  1. Wow-what could be ookier? Your baby is your 3-D version, and if that didn't come to fruition I am sorry, but a plastic version is not going to help matters any. Talk about a service in search of a need....
