Private Dating / Viability Scan
The early weeks of pregnancy can be both exciting and uncertain. Our Dating and Viability Scan in Sheffield, available from 7 to 12 weeks, is designed to offer reassurance and peace of mind during this important stage. This gentle scan allows you to see your baby, confirm that the pregnancy is developing, and, where possible, witness the heartbeat for the first time — a truly special moment for many parents.
Carried out by a qualified, HCPC-registered sonographer at Baby Bump Sheffield, the scan is non-diagnostic and does not replace NHS care, but it provides comfort and clarity when you need it most.
