Understanding the Different Types of Baby Scans In Manchester
In the journey of pregnancy, few experiences compare to the excitement of seeing your baby for the first time through private ultrasound scans. These remarkable images provide expectant parents with a glimpse into their baby’s world before they even arrive. However, with advancements in technology, there are now various types of baby scans available, each serving a unique purpose. At Hey Baby 4D Stalybridge, serving Tameside and Manchester, we understand the importance of these scans in bringing you closer to your little one. Let’s delve into the different types of baby scans and what they entail.
Early Pregnancy Scan – Also known as our ‘Early Scan’
One of the earliest milestones in your pregnancy journey is the early pregnancy scan, typically performed between 6 to 12 weeks. This scan confirms the pregnancy, checks for the baby’s heartbeat, and ensures the pregnancy is developing within the uterus. It’s a reassuring experience for many parents, offering peace of mind during the crucial early stages. You can have an early scan private about 6 weeks earlier than your routine NHS scan appointment. Some parents may wish to repeat this scan in the first trimester multiple times. We offer a special offer and discounts seeking that little bit of extra reassurance over the first 3 months of pregnancy.
Gender Reveal Scan
At 15 weeks into your pregnancy, you’ll have the opportunity to find out your baby’s gender through a gender reveal scan. This exciting moment allows parents to start envisioning their baby’s future and bond even more deeply with their little one. At Hey Baby 4D Stalybridge, we offer a warm and inviting environment for this memorable occasion and include an interactive light reveal during your scan for a truly magical moment. You can also benefit from our range of gender reveal products including gender reveal smoke cannons, confetti, balloons and much more.
3D and 4D Baby Scans
For a more detailed and immersive experience, 3D and 4D baby scans provide remarkable images of your baby’s features and movements. Unlike traditional 2D scans, these advanced technologies offer a three-dimensional view, allowing you to see your baby’s facial expressions and movements in real-time. 3D scans are only offered as a private scan but create a truly magical experience that enhances the bond between parents and their unborn child, you can book one with ease online as well as get those all-important pictures and videos. Hey baby 4D Stalybridge offers expectant parents in the Tameside area a truly unique experience with great quality using state of the art technology.
Growth & Bonding Scans – Reassurance from 16 weeks right until 38 weeks
As your pregnancy progresses, growth scans become essential for monitoring your baby’s development and well-being. These scans measure your baby’s size, weight, and overall growth rate, ensuring everything is progressing as expected. If you’re in Tameside or Manchester, our experienced team at Hey Baby 4D Stalybridge can provide you with comprehensive growth scans to track your baby’s health throughout your pregnancy.
