A Private Pregnancy Scan for Clarity and Peace of Mind

In the second and third trimester, it’s normal to want reassurance — especially if you have a long gap between routine NHS scans.

Our Growth & Reassurance Scan is designed for parents who want a clear, calm assessment of baby’s wellbeing and development, with time to ask questions and understand what’s being checked.

  • This scan is commonly booked by parents who:
  • Feel anxious between NHS appointments
  • Want reassurance after reduced movements
  • Want to check baby’s position closer to birth
  • Have concerns around growth, fluid levels, or placenta location
  • Prefer a calm, private clinic experience

FAQs – Growth & Reassurance Scans

Does a growth scan tell me if everything is normal?

This scan provides reassurance and assessment of growth, fluid levels, position, and placenta location. If anything requires further review, we will advise NHS follow-up.

Is a growth scan safe?

Yes. Ultrasound is considered safe when performed by qualified professionals using appropriate equipment.

Can I bring my partner?

Yes. Partners are welcome — please check guest allowances if you plan to bring additional family members.

Does this replace NHS scans?

No. It complements NHS care and does not replace screening scans like the anomaly scan.

Will I get images?

Yes, printed and/or digital images are provided where possible depending on visibility and gestation.
