The position or presentation of the baby can be determined using ultrasound.

​

Occasionally, towards the end of your pregnancy, the position of the baby can be in doubt i.e. Head down or Breech.

This scan will determine the position and the size of the baby. A fetal wellbeing report will also be issued.

​

If at any time in your pregnancy you require reassurance then the position, size and wellbeing can be obtained in a reassurance scan.

At both of these scans the volume of fluid around the baby and the placental position will be checked.

​

At the end of the scan you will receive a report and any relevant images to place in your maternity notes.

​

The appointment is for 30 minutes and includes up to 4 Black and white glossy prints. The images may be restricted due to the position of the baby at the later stages.
