You’ll receive an indication of gestational age - how far along you are in your pregnancy, and when your baby is due.

Most early scans can be carried out trans-abdominally (externally), but if the images are not clear enough, a transvaginal (internal) scan may be offered during your appointment.

Private pregnancy ultrasound scans allow you to spend more time with your baby before they arrive, and can give you earlier access to scans from just 6 weeks. The NHS routinely provide two pregnancy scans, but they take place in the first half of your pregnancy. This means a private scan is the best option if you want to see your baby regularly, or into your third trimester. Private scans also give you more choice when it comes to locations and scan types.
Our private pregnancy scans start from £80, and you can choose from 20 convenient locations.
