Affinity Health, a leading provider of high-quality healthcare, shares what to expect during scans.The moment you first glimpse your unborn baby on an ultrasound scan is unforgettable. A sonar scan gives parents-to-be an exciting sneak peep of their baby. It also serves as a crucial procedure allowing you to see the foetus and track its growth. Your doctor will be able to check progress and screen for specific abnormalities.
 
Many obstetricians scan during every visit. But scans need only take place at certain stages of pregnancy. Ultrasounds can offer your physician the following enlightening information:

  • Your baby’s progress.
  • Any anomalies.
  • Forecasts of your due date.
  • Whether there are multiple babies.
  • The location of your placenta.
  • The gender of your baby.
