Appointment preparation

Preparing for your appointment.

E
It is advisable to not have an empty bladder for the first trimester scan. This does not imply that you have to drink large amounts of fluid either.
E

It is recommended that you eat or drink something prior to your appointment. Babies are more active after meals and this will assist in the assessment of the baby during the scan.

E
Belly-button rings could potentially damage ultrasound probes. You will be asked to remove these prior to the ultrasound.
E

Stretchmark prevention oils and creams affect the quality of the scan. Try to skip applying this on your tummy prior to the scan.

E
Both first and second trimester scans are performed trans-abdominally but sometimes an internal (transvaginal) scan may be required depending on the baby’s position or to assess your cervix.
E
The consultation is about an hour long so plan your day accordingly. It will be longer if you are pregnant with twins or triplets. There is always a possibility of a longer consultation if the baby is not in an ideal position for me to assess the anatomy.
