Does this replace my NHS scans?

No. A private scan is extra reassurance, not a replacement. Keep all your NHS antenatal appointments and scans, and share our report with your midwife.

Will this pick up a small baby?

It measures your baby’s growth and blood flow, which helps spot babies who are smaller or larger than expected. Any concern goes in your report for your midwife.

Can you tell if baby is breech?

Yes. Position and presentation are part of this scan.

Expecting twins or triplets?

Choose the twins or triplets option in the booking form so we reserve the longer appointment each baby needs.

What if my baby is moving less?

Do not wait for a private scan. If your baby’s movements slow down, stop or change, contact your maternity unit or midwife straight away, day or night.
