Frequently asked questions
When is the best time?
From week 15 (14+0) and for the rest of the pregnancy. There is no bad time. The most common are the weeks between the public check-ups – between week 20 and week 28, where a long stretch goes by without anyone looking in – and the last weeks before the birth, when many want to see their little one one more time.
Can you tell how much the baby weighs?
Yes. We measure the baby and work out an estimated weight, so you can see where it sits for your particular week. You take the figures home along with the images.
How often can I come?
As often as you like. Ultrasound is considered safe throughout pregnancy and there is no upper limit – many come regularly between the public check-ups.
Do I need a referral?
No. You book directly online, with no referral.
