Growth scan
First time mom! Does NHS offer growth and presentation scan at 34/36 weeks to check for fetal weight in low risk pregnancy?

No, in my first pregnancy which was low risk, I only had the 12 and 20 week scan. I paid for a private one at 34 weeks. I’ve had extra scans in this one as I’m consultant led xx
No only if you measure too big or small on the percentile chart do they send you for a growth scan
I'm considered low risk pregnancy, and I had 12, 20 weeks scan and scheduled for 36 weeks scan to check the baby. So you should have a scan at the beginning of your ninth month
Im low risk and I’ve been told at my 20 week scan they’ll send me a letter for a scan at 36 weeks to check placements and size. I think it does depend where you are.
Think it depends where you live! At my trust they do 36 week scan routinely for everyone.

No they don’t only 12 and 20 week for low risk if there’s no concern for growth or placental location x
