From 35 weeks your baby will start getting ready in position for birth. The main objective of this scan is to examine the position of your baby and of your placenta. Most babies will turn head down anterior, meaning with their face facing your back. Occasionally, babies may not be in the smoothest position and it will be useful to know in advance to allow you make plans for delivery as needed. Please note that although more difficult, babies may occasionally still turn until 36 weeks.
What's Included?
- Approximately 15 minutes appointment with a qualified sonographer
- Presentation scan report
The Procedure
- Please arrive 10 minutes before your appointment time. You will be welcomed at our clinic and asked to complete an informed consent form before each scan.
- When ready, the sonographer will welcome you in the consultation room, confirm your details, the reason for your scan and discuss any particular concerns you may have.
- The sonographer will perform a transabdominal scan applying a gentle pressure on your belly with a probe.
- The sonographer will check the baby’s heart beat and proceed to check its position.
- At the end of the appointment, you will be invited back to the reception room where you can collect your report. Please note that at this stage of the pregnancy, your baby will be too big to obtain any meaningful pictures.
