Whether you are looking to confirm a pregnancy, determine the gestational age and establish an idea of Estimated Due Date (EDD), the Baby Scantastic team can help to alleviate any worries you may be having in these early days.

Our Scantastic Early Reassurance Scan is designed to provide extra peace of mind during the early weeks of pregnancy therefore this package includes two scans, allowing us to monitor your baby’s development over time and ensure your pregnancy is progressing as expected.
During your first appointment, we perform a baseline scan to confirm that the pregnancy is located within the uterus, check for your baby’s heartbeat, and provide an initial estimate of gestational age. You will then return 10–14 days later for a follow-up scan, where we assess your baby’s development, confirm ongoing progress, and provide a more accurate estimate of gestational age and due date.
Please drink approximately 1 litre of water at least one hour before your appointment to ensure your bladder is full.
