Why People Choose Private Baby Scans

Expecting a baby is one of the most exciting times in a person’s life. With advances in medical technology, parents-to-be have the option to see their baby before birth through detailed ultrasound scans throughout each stage of pregnancy. While the NHS provide 2 routine ultrasounds, many parents opt for private baby scans for the added benefits and a more personalised experience and obtaining scans much earlier in the pregnancy journey. Here’s why:

1. Enhanced Experience

3. Earlier Reassurance Compared to the NHS
