FAQs
What is an early pregnancy scan?
It is an ultrasound performed in the first trimester (usually 6–10 weeks) to confirm the pregnancy, check fetal heartbeat, and establish an accurate due date.
Is the early pregnancy scan safe?
Yes, the scan is completely safe for both the mother and the baby as it uses ultrasound technology without radiation.
When should I have my first scan?
The first scan is usually done between 6 and 10 weeks of pregnancy to confirm viability and estimate gestational age.
Can an early scan detect multiple pregnancies?
Yes, an early scan can confirm whether you are carrying twins or more by detecting multiple sacs or embryos.
What if the scan shows no heartbeat?
If no heartbeat is detected early, your doctor may recommend repeating the scan after 1–2 weeks as it may simply be too early in the pregnancy.
