  • To confirm that your baby has a heartbeat

  • To find out the age of your baby

  • To estimate a due date of your baby

Why Opt for an Emergency Pregnancy Scan?

Our emergency scan is intended to help you in times of uncertainty or anxiety. This scan can be useful whether you have symptoms or just need early clarity:

  • Verify the viability of the pregnancy
  • Look for a foetal heartbeat.
  • Calculate the gestational age and due date.
  • Evaluate early positioning and development
  • In between NHS appointments, reassure

A written sonographer's report and at least one 2D printed copy of your scan will also be given to you for your records.

When An Emergency Pregnancy Scan Can Help

An emergency scan could be beneficial if you are dealing with:

Spotting or Bleeding

Although light bleeding is typical in the early stages of pregnancy, it can be reasonably concerning. To find out if the pregnancy is going well, an emergency scan can be helpful.

Lower Back or Abdominal Pain

A scan can help determine potential causes and reassure you if you're experiencing pain, cramping, or discomfort that goes beyond normal early pregnancy symptoms.

Anxiety During Pregnancy or Past Issues

If they have had a miscarriage in the past or just want peace of mind before their NHS dating scan, many expectant parents opt for early scans.

Uncertainty About Your Progress

The scan can help determine gestational age if you're not sure about your dates or haven't had an NHS appointment yet.
