When should I book an early pregnancy scan? A question we hear almost daily 👶💕
Here's some really easy guidance, we recommend to all clients:
1. First things first, confirm your pregnant with a pregnancy test preferably the Clearblue Week Indicator Test as they're extremely accurate.
2. The bonus with this test is it'll also tell you how many weeks you are approximately. What's important to remember is to apply 2 weeks to the timeline given.
*For example: If the pregnancy test shows 2 - 3 weeks add an additional 2 weeks = roughly 4 -5 weeks pregnant.
3. The reason this works well is if you work from the earliest possible date you know you'll always be that or slightly over.
Using the above scenario, we'd work on the basis at the earliest you'd be 4 weeks and you can book with us at the earliest 2 weeks from the day you took the pregnancy test (Week 6).
Please also remember our Early Reassurance scan is available from 6 weeks however anytime before 8 weeks it is highly likely you may need an internal scan (Trans-vaginal) for us to see anything.
Should you wish to avoid this process we'd recommend attending a scan from 8 weeks+.
