The 4D Baby Scan

When you arrive at Babybrite you will be asked for your maternity notes (we only check your hospital scans and do not look at any personal information within your notes) and be asked to complete a short consent form explaining that the scan is purely for bonding and not medical purposes. We will already have your EDD (Estimated Date of Delivery), weeks pregnant and contact details from your booking form (we will only use your contact details for marketing purposes at Babybrite and will not send on to any third parties).

PLEASE NOTE THAT DUE TO COMPANY POLICY WE ARE UNABLE TO SCAN YOU WITHOUT YOUR MATERNITY NOTES - IF YOU TURN UP ON THE DAY OF YOUR SCAN WITHOUT YOUR NOTES YOU WILL NOT BE SCANNED AND WE WILL HAVE TO REARRANGE YOUR APPOINTMENT TO ANOTHER DAY.


You will then move into our scan room where you will be made to feel comfortable and at ease. If you have guests with you (we can accommodate 6+ family members) they will be able to take a seat whilst watching the scan on our second monitor. The Sonographer will then put some gel on your abdomen to enable you to see your baby in 4D.

Our caring and considerate staff will look after you during your 4D baby scan with Babybrite. A scan from Babybrite allows you, your partner and family to see your baby before they are born, keep a permanent record and as all recent research shows, enable you to bond with your baby.

This scan is not meant to replace your 12 week dating scan and 20 week anomaly scan or any other growth scan your obstetrician requests throughout your pregnancy. It is vitally important you keep all NHS antenatal and ultrasound appointments given to you. The 4D scan is performed purely as a complementary scan allowing you to see your baby in 4D.

Being situated within our own store enables us to bring you into a much less clinical environment, creating the perfect setting to allow you to relax and enjoy bonding with your baby. Your baby may not be lying in an ideal scan position, in this case, we may ask you to have a walk around the store or have a drink, then come back after a short while and we will try again.

Time permitting, alternatively you will be offfered an alternative appointment at no futher cost to yourself.
