Private Reassurance Scan
Peace of Mind From 6 - 15 Weeks
For your peace of mind, Peek A Baby offers an early reassurance scan from 6 to 15 weeks of pregnancy. Our private reassurance scan is a 5-minute 2D abdominal scan to confirm the results of a pregnancy test as well as the gestational age of the baby, an estimated due date of the baby and confirms the baby's heartbeat.
You will receive three 2D black and white thermal prints as a keepsake. Please note that this scan requires a full bladder. You will need to start drinking fluid 30 to 45 minutes before your appointment time and refrain from using the bathroom within this period.
We do not need to see your hospital records.

Private Reassurance Pregnancy Scans
A private reassurance scan, available between 6 and 15 weeks of gestation, is an important ultrasound examination that provides essential information for both expectant parents and healthcare professionals. Also referred to as an early pregnancy scan, first pregnancy scan, early viability scan, or dating scan, this assessment is usually carried out using transabdominal ultrasound.
In some cases, if pregnancy cannot be clearly identified during the abdominal scan, our sonographer may recommend a transvaginal ultrasound to obtain clearer images and assist with accurate diagnosis. Below, we explore the purpose, procedure, and benefits of undergoing a private reassurance scan.
Significance of An Early Reassurance Scan
The primary purpose of a private reassurance scan is to confirm the pregnancy and assess its viability. Between 6 and 9 weeks, the scan can often identify the gestational sac, yolk sac, and fetal pole. From around 6 to 7 weeks, it is usually possible to detect and measure your baby's heartbeat, providing an important indication that the pregnancy is developing normally.
Private reassurance scans also play a vital role in accurately determining gestational age. Establishing precise dating helps estimate your due date, allowing your pregnancy to be monitored more effectively and supporting informed decision-making throughout your antenatal journey.

Private Reassurance Scan Questions Answered
Benefits of Private Reassurance Scans
There are a number of benefits to booking an early reassurance scan with your local Peek A Baby clinic, including:
Confirmation of Pregnancy:Â
The primary benefit of a private reassurance scan is to confirm the presence of an intrauterine pregnancy. This confirmation is crucial to rule out ectopic pregnancies, where the embryo implants outside the uterus, a potentially life-threatening condition that requires immediate medical attention. It can also rule out blighted ovum.Â
Viability and Heartbeat Detection:
Detecting the fetal heartbeat is a major milestone. A heartbeat detected by around 6 to 7 weeks significantly reassures that the pregnancy is viable.
Accurate Dating:
Early private reassurance scans provide precise measurements of the fetus, allowing for accurate dating of the pregnancy. This is important for planning subsequent care and interventions.
Identification of Multiple Pregnancies:
Reassurance scans at 6 weeks can identify multiple pregnancies (twins, triplets, etc.), which require specialised monitoring and care.
Early Detection of Abnormalities:
Though detailed anomaly scans are performed later in the pregnancy, private reassurance scans can sometimes detect significant abnormalities or issues, allowing for early decision-making and management.
Parental Reassurance:
For many parents, private reassurance scans provide peace of mind and a sense of connection with their developing baby. Seeing the first images and hearing the heartbeat can be a profoundly moving experience.
