A baby scan appointment can be an exciting yet nerve-wracking experience for expecting parents. In this post, we’ll walk you through each step of the process, helping you feel confident and prepared for your visit.
What Happens During the Scan?
- Greeting and Introduction: When you arrive, our friendly staff will welcome you, explain the procedure, and answer any initial questions.
- Preparation: You’ll be guided to a comfortable room. We may ask you to adjust your clothing and get comfy on our scan bed.
- The Scan Process: Using advanced imaging technology the GE Voluson S8 (The Bentley of Ultrasound), we capture detailed images of your baby. Our NHS trained HCPC registered Sonographers and manager will explain in detail what you see on screen, pointing out key features, and answer any queries about development.
- After the Scan: Once the images are taken, we offer a printed copy or digital version for you to cherish, along with tips on what to expect for the next appointments if you want to see how little one has change or just for babies position and reassurance.
Why It’s Important
Understanding the process helps alleviate anxiety and makes the experience more enjoyable. The scan not only confirms the baby’s health but also strengthens the bond between parent and child while introducing them to siblings, family and friends.
