£120
At Sonoscan Healthcare, we provide professional and reassuring private growth scans in Stockport and Manchester, helping you monitor your baby’s development during the later stages of pregnancy.A growth scan is designed to assess your baby’s size, weight, and overall wellbeing, offering valuable reassurance in the third trimester.
What Is a Growth Scan?
A growth scan is a detailed ultrasound examination performed during the later stages of pregnancy, typically from 24 weeks onwards.This scan measures your baby’s growth and checks that development is progressing as expected. It can be particularly helpful if you would like additional reassurance between routine appointments.
What Does a Growth Scan Check?
During your private pregnancy growth scan, we assess:
- Baby’s head, abdomen, and femur measurements
- Estimated fetal weight
- Overall growth progression
- Amniotic fluid levels
- Placenta position
- Baby’s movements and heartbeat
What Happens During Your Growth Scan?
You lie comfortably on a couch, slightly tilted if that feels better later in pregnancy, while the sonographer applies warm gel to your tummy and takes a series of measurements of your baby. Your results are explained during the appointment. A private growth scan is in addition to, not a replacement for, your routine NHS antenatal care.
Important: if you notice your baby’s movements have slowed down, stopped or changed, contact your maternity unit straight away — do not wait for a scan appointment.
