Why Book An Early Pregnancy Scan Near Me?
At Peek A Baby, our Early Pregnancy Reassurance Scan is available from as early as 6 weeks. This is an opportunity to confirm your pregnancy and the baby’s heartbeat, giving you and your partner the reassurance you may be seeking following home tests. Following this confirmation of pregnancy, you are able to appropriately plan your prenatal care to ensure that you and baby are fully looked after on this journey of pregnancy.
Whilst with us for this scan, our sonographers will confirm your pregnancy and the baby’s heartbeat, the gestational age of the baby and estimate your due date. This allows you to also have your first glimpse at the newest family member and start to bond with your baby as your pregnancy journey begins.
Early pregnancy scans are often 10-15 minute appointments with a 5 minute abdominal ultrasound scan (transvaginal offered if necessary) to establish the viability of your pregnancy. Following this scan, you will be able to take home 3 thermal images to share with your loved ones. For this scan, we do not need to see hospital records. Please wear comfortable clothing that allows for ease of access to your abdomen for scans. In order to get the best results of this scan, you will need to drink fluids beforehand to have a full bladder. We recommend drinking plenty 40 minutes or so before you scan.

At Peek A Baby, we perform all scans as abdominal ultrasound scans. During the Early Pregnancy Reassurance Scan, if we are unable to see on the ultrasound scan, we may ask to do a transvaginal scan for you in order to detect a viable pregnancy.
Benefits of an Early Pregnancy Scan Near Me
Taking home tests can give you the answer that you are possibly looking for in confirming a positive result for pregnancy following early symptoms, but often, finding peace of mind can come from an early pregnancy scan near me. Our sonographers across all three clinics are able to confirm your pregnancy from as early as 6 weeks. This is just one of the benefits to early pregnancy scans; other benefits can include:
- Detecting the fetal heartbeat – this gives you an opportunity to see your baby’s heartbeat for the first time at a very early stage.
- Giving an estimated due date – this can help you preplan your prenatal care and look ahead to when your family grows.
- It can reduce anxiety or stress that you may have been experiencing up to this point in early pregnancy.
- It creates the cherished first opportunity for you to meet your baby and start creating a bond with them that will only grow and develop over the course of your pregnancy.

Ideally, wait a week and then test if you have missed your period for more accurate results. Following the results, if positive, you can book a 6 week early pregnancy reassurance scan with Peek A Baby.
Mild cramping is normal during the early pregnancy stages as your body changes. If you experience severe or persistent cramps or with bleeding whilst cramping at any point during early pregnancy, contact your healthcare provider for next steps.
