Pregnancy Scans
Most pregnant women will have pregnancy scans (ultrasound) during their pregnancy. This simple test is quite safe for both mother and baby and causes only minor, if any, discomfort.
Ultrasound is a way of taking a look at the baby without using potentially dangerous X-rays. During an ultrasound scan, high-frequency sound-waves are used to create moving images of the developing baby, shown in real-time on a in-room monitor visibly accessible to the patient and their family.
