Here's a comprehensive guide on the various types of scans you can expect during pregnancy. These scans play a crucial role in monitoring your baby's development and ensuring a healthy pregnancy journey.

1. Early Pregnancy Scan (8-11 weeks)

This scan confirms your pregnancy, checks for a heartbeat, and estimates your due date.
Typically conducted via transvaginal ultrasound for clearer images.
Also rules out ectopic pregnancy, where the fertilized egg implants outside the uterus.

2. Nuchal Translucency Scan (11-14 weeks)

Measures the nuchal translucency, a fluid-filled space at the back of your baby's neck.
Elevated nuchal translucency can indicate chromosomal abnormalities like Down syndrome.
Often combined with a blood test for more precise risk assessment.

3. Early Anomaly Scan (14-18 weeks)

Examines your baby's development and can reveal structural abnormalities.
Offers the option to determine the baby's sex if desired.

4. Fetal Anomaly Scan (19-23 weeks)

The most detailed scan, assessing your baby's growth and development from head to toe.
Checks for placental, umbilical cord, and amniotic fluid abnormalities.

5. Growth Scan or Fetal Wellbeing Scan (24-42 weeks)

Later pregnancy scans to monitor your baby's growth and overall well-being.
Detects signs of complications like preeclampsia or low amniotic fluid.

6. Optional 3D Scan

Produces realistic, detailed images of your baby's features.
While not medically necessary, some parents opt for these scans as keepsakes.

7. Optional 4D Scan

4D scans provide real-time, moving images of your baby.
A fun way to bond with your baby before birth, though not medically essential.

8. Fetal Doppler

A handheld device used to listen to your baby's heartbeat.
Can be used at any pregnancy stage, confirming pregnancy in early weeks and monitoring well-being later on.

These scans are pivotal in ensuring the health and well-being of both you and your baby throughout your pregnancy journey. Make sure to discuss them with your healthcare provider to determine which scans are appropriate for your specific situation.
