Hope everyone is keeping cosy!

We have a busy clinic running tomorrow but would ask everyone only to venture to us if it’s safe to do so.

I am lucky enough to be able to walk to the clinic , so I will be here but we will happily reschedule/cancel any appointments if need be. Don’t travel to us if you don’t feel safe!

A little snippet of a project we have been working on behind the scenes!

We were delighted to have Northport Studios in the clinic for some filming and are so pleased with the results. We hope it gives anyone thinking of booking a scan a wee insight to what we do!

Can’t wait to share more clips with you all!

We are happy for you to bring family with you to your scan, all welcome 💕

Hi everyone,

Many of you may have seen or read the BBC news today which features an article about private baby scanning clinics using staff which aren’t suitably qualified and issuing information which is not reliable or accurate.

I’m posting this evening to highlight that our clinic uses only qualified staff educated to postgraduate level with years of experience.

We have staff from both midwifery and radiography background, all of whom hold current substantive NHS jobs.

Accurate Scans done safely are our priority

All staff are suitably qualified and experienced

We are registered with Health Improvement Scotland. You can check us on their register. This means we have strict guidelines and protocols that we must adhere to.

✅You are in safe hands with us.

Some high-street clinics are risking lives by letting untrained staff do baby scans, warn experts.

22/10/2025

We need some volunteers!

Have you been for a scan with us and are currently 25-32 weeks pregnant?

Would you like to come for a free scan and in return feature in a short promotional video? Photos of your baby will also be given free of charge (subject to your baby’s behaviour 😂).

If you are free on Friday 7th November between 9:30-2:30 and would like to help us-drop us a DM!

🌸 Early Pregnancy Ultrasound: What You Should Know 🌸

If you’re considering an early pregnancy ultrasound, we totally understand your excitement and eagerness to see your little one. However, it’s important to note that early on (before 6 weeks), we may not see much on the scan just yet. At this stage, the pregnancy might be too small or still developing, and you might not see a heartbeat or clear signs of pregnancy.

✨ Why wait until 6 weeks?
Before 6 weeks, the gestational sac and embryo may not be fully visible, which can cause unnecessary anxiety. It’s common not to see much in the early days, and that’s completely normal. Early pregnancy ultrasounds prior to 6 weeks can be inconclusive, and we want to make sure we’re giving you accurate information without any confusion. 💡

🩺 What we do routinely during an early scan
Once we hit that 6-week mark, we aim to check the following:
✔️ Presence of a gestational sac
✔️ Fetal heartbeat (if it’s the right time)
✔️Intrauterine pregnancy (inside the womb)
✔️ Measurement of embryo growth
✔️ Single or mulitple pregnancy

If the scan requires a clearer view, we may recommend an internal transvaginal scan (with your consent) to get a more accurate look. This is a common and safe procedure that helps us ensure everything is progressing as it should.

For your peace of mind and the best possible results, we suggest waiting until after 6 weeks for an ultrasound. We’re here to guide you and answer any questions along the way. 💕
