Scan Information
Our presentation scans allow us to assess your baby’s postion in the womb as it prepares for birth. We will also carry out weight checks using your baby’s measurements and listen to their heartbeat for the final time before you welcome your baby into the world.
As we allow a full 20 minutes appointment this provides you with opportunity to ask any questions you may have and allows us to support you and provide you with the most accurate advice during the scan.
We recommend that you attend all scans with a relatively full bladder as this helps give us the best view of your baby.
A qualified Sonographer will complete your scan. Our Sonographers are fully qualified and registered medical professionals with lots of ultrasound experience. Our Sonographers are registered with the Health and Care Professions Council and follow the British Medical Ultrasound Society protocols and guidance.
If, at any stage, we notice anything unusual during your scan we will explain our findings based on the visual observation at that time. We will advise you on what to do next and refer you to you midwife, GP or early pregnancy unit, we have the contact information and details to provide to you in the clinic.
