Dating Scan Details

Our Dating Scan offers early pregnancy assurance to ladies from as early as 6 weeks or two weeks following a first positive pregnancy test if LMP is unknown. Each of our early pregnancy scans come complete with a medical report. Our expertly trained sonographers and clinic team will provide you with the best possible reassurance from 6 weeks gestation.

• If you feel you would benefit from more frequent scans please speak with your local clinic, however a minimum of 2 weeks between scans is advised
• The primary purpose of this scan is to confirm pregnancy dating and determine health.
• The scans will last about 10 minutes and a 2D scan picture will be given to you to take home and keep.
• All early scans are performed by a qualified diagnostic Sonographer.
• As this package is offered from 6 weeks, it is medically recommended that the scan is carried out trans-vaginally with consent to ladies pre-10 weeks. We will always consult with ladies before their scan, so if you’d prefer an abdominal scan, please let us know.
• If you are unsure of your LMP or have irregular cycles you will be asked to confirm the date of your first positive pregnancy test and we will book your appointment two weeks following this to ensure your are atleast 6 weeks.
