Unfortunately it's not a matter of capability, but certification. Your watch probably has more processing and imaging power than the best medical systems available in the late 90s, but if you're planning to market it as anything with even a whiff of medical application, even from the home, then it will need ISO 13485 certification in order to obtain required insurance that costs enough to prevent medical market entry for most businesses, especially when you combine that with the concept of unborn babies.

I mean, according to the rule of phamaceutics, the equivalent costs fo a non-medical ultrasound would be about 10-fold cheaper. So if you don't care about eventual side effects, you could have an absolute bargain
