We can determine the baby’s gender with a high certainly from 13 weeks using ultrasound (about 95% accurate). Since we are a medical centre, we do not take images of your baby for keepsake purposes, meaning we cannot guarantee the quality of images. Once we are satisfied the pregnancy is developing normally, our doctor will happily share the ultrasound images from your scan. Our doctors main concern is to screen for your baby’s health. We use the latest 2D/3D/4D ultrasound equipment. In case of ‘no call’ results, we will arrange another appointment for a repeat test and scan free of charge. This is to ensure that there is enough cfDNA in the mother’s blood to perform the test reliably (also referred to as ‘fetal fraction’.) We reserve the right to charge an extra £50 in case you require a repeat appointment to draw the bloods if you have come in before 10 weeks to cover our staffing costs. Sometimes CRL estimation can differ from your LMP gestational age. The labs require the CRL measurement of the gestational age of the baby to be at least 10 weeks.
