Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about pregnancy ultrasound scans

What is an ultrasound scan and how does it work?

An ultrasound scan uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of the inside of your body. During pregnancy, it allows healthcare professionals to monitor your baby's development, check the position of the placenta, and identify any potential concerns. The procedure is safe, non-invasive, and typically takes 20-45 minutes depending on the type of scan being performed.

How soon can pregnancy be detected with an ultrasound scan?

A pregnancy can typically be detected via ultrasound as early as 5-6 weeks after your last menstrual period. At this stage, a gestational sac and possibly a yolk sac may be visible. By 6-7 weeks, a heartbeat can often be detected. Early scans are usually performed transvaginally for better visibility, while later scans (after 10-12 weeks) are generally performed abdominally.

How many ultrasound scans are recommended during pregnancy?

The NHS typically offers two routine scans during pregnancy: a dating scan at around 8-14 weeks and an anomaly scan at 18-21 weeks. However, additional scans may be recommended based on individual circumstances. With private scanning services, you can choose to have additional scans at various stages of your pregnancy for reassurance or to create special memories, such as gender reveal or 4D scans to see your baby's features.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about pregnancy scans

The timing of pregnancy scans varies based on medical needs and your pregnancy journey. Typically, the first scan (dating scan) occurs between 8-14 weeks, while the anomaly scan is done around 18-22 weeks. Additional scans may be recommended based on your specific situation.
Yes, pregnancy ultrasound scans are considered very safe. They use sound waves rather than radiation to create images of your baby. There have been no documented risks to the baby or mother from standard ultrasound procedures used during pregnancy.
For early pregnancy scans (before 10 weeks), you may be asked to have a full bladder to help visualize the baby better. For later scans, special preparation is usually not required. Wear comfortable, two-piece clothing for easy access to your abdomen. Your healthcare provider will give you specific instructions if needed.
In a standard pregnancy, you'll typically have at least two scans: a dating scan in the first trimester and an anomaly scan around 20 weeks. However, the number of scans can vary based on your health, your baby's development, and your healthcare provider's recommendations. Some women may require additional scans for monitoring specific conditions.
Gender determination is usually possible during the anomaly scan around 18-22 weeks, depending on your baby's position and the clarity of the images. However, it's important to note that gender prediction is not 100% accurate, and some healthcare facilities have policies regarding whether they disclose this information. Always let your sonographer know if you'd like to know your baby's gender or if you prefer to keep it a surprise.
