Presentation Scan

Please attend the clinic during opening hours to purchace a home test kit.

Please call the clinic in advance to check stock availability.

From 35 weeks your baby will start getting ready in position for birth. The main objective of a presentation 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.

SneakPeek Clinical Early Fetal Sex DNA Test

SneakPeek is a blood test that can confirm your baby’s sex from 6 weeks’ gestation by analyzing fetal DNA for the male Y chromosome. We recommend a dating scan before the test to ensure pregnancy viability and correct gestation, as well as to check for multiple pregnancies.

Progesterone Test

Progesterone supports egg implantation and embryo development. Low levels may indicate pregnancy issues. Monitoring progesterone helps assess pregnancy progress.

Post Miscarriage Scan

We’re deeply sorry for your loss. This scan checks that your womb and reproductive system have returned to their pre-pregnancy state. It’s suitable 6-8 weeks after a miscarriage or after 1-2 normal periods, ideally within the first 10 days of your cycle.

NIPT— Panorama with microdeletions

Panorama™, a leading NIPT, uses a simple blood draw to assess your baby’s risk for chromosomal conditions and determine sex. It screens for common trisomies, triploidy, and 5 microdeletions. This package includes an early pregnancy scan.

Group B Strep Test

Group B Strep (GBS) is a common bacterium that usually causes no harm but can lead to serious infections in newborns. Testing for GBS, which involves a swab test using a home kit, is not routinely offered in the UK but can reduce infection risk if done within 5 weeks of delivery.

Early Pregnancy Scan

An ultrasound can detect early pregnancy from 6 weeks after LMP. A sonographer confirms pregnancy, checks progress, and detects heartbeats.

Blood Group & Rhesus Factor

A venous blood test determines your blood group and Rh status, crucial for blood compatibility in pregnancy and transfusions.

Beta hCG — Pregnancy viability

Early in pregnancy, hCG levels double every 48 hours. Monitoring these levels can assess pregnancy progress, especially after assisted conception or previous miscarriages. Falling or slow-rising hCG may indicate a risk of miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy, but it does not provide a conclusive diagnosis.

Beta hCG — Pregnancy confirmation

After conception, the placenta produces the hormone hCG, which is detectable in urine and blood. A blood test can confirm pregnancy as early as 6-10 days post-fertilization.
