HD 4D imaging technology
Digital images included, video available as add-on
This scan is designed to assess the well-being of your baby and provide you with the very first 4D images of him or her, creating an exciting and emotional experience. Our qualified sonographers will conduct necessary measurements to ensure that your baby is active and growing as expected. They will also assess the amniotic fluid levels, the condition and position of your placenta, and estimate the fetal weight. Afterwards, you will have the opportunity to bond with your baby, seeing his/her face (if not hiding!), perhaps yawning or even sucking his/her thumb, creating cherished memories to hold onto forever.

Planning your bonding scan? Here's what you need to know.
The optimal window is 22-32 weeks. Before 22 weeks, baby hasn’t developed enough fat under their skin for detailed facial features. After 32 weeks, there’s less room to move and baby’s face may be pressed against the uterus. We find 26-30 weeks often gives the best images.
Babies have their own agenda! If your baby is facing your back, has their hands over their face, or the placenta is in front, we may not get clear facial images. We’ll try different techniques—sometimes a short walk or a cold drink helps. If we can’t get good images, we’ll discuss options including a follow-up appointment.
Several factors influence 4D image quality which are not within the sonographer’s control:
Absolutely! Partners, grandparents-to-be, siblings, and friends are all welcome. Watching your baby together on our large screen is a wonderful shared experience. Just let us know how many guests you’re bringing.
Yes. 4D scanning uses the same ultrasound technology as standard 2D scans—it’s simply a different way of processing the image. We follow all safety guidelines and keep scanning time as brief as needed while still capturing beautiful images.
A 4D bonding scan isn’t a diagnostic anomaly scan—it’s designed for bonding and beautiful images. However, we will check baby’s position, movements, and general wellbeing. If we notice anything that warrants further investigation, we’ll discuss this with you. We always recommend attending your NHS 20-week anomaly scan.
Real experiences from those who trust our care.
The staff are great and the service is impeccable. Lauren the sonographer is empathetic, personable and so kind which made our 8 week scan a wonderful experience
I’ve visited Flowan a few times over the last few years for various reasons and every time the service and care is outstanding. There are clinics much closer to me I could opt for but travel out of my way to Flowan simply for the service.
Felt safe and comfortable at this clinic! Very good service, would recommend!!
We came for an early pregnancy scan. Such lovely, professional staff at the clinic. Explained everything super clearly and were so friendly! Would really recommend.
The team are so friendly and helpful, really excellent service. We asked not to see the gender of the baby but for it to be part of the surprise package and we couldn’t be happier!! Such a lovely experience seeing our baby
