Gender Reveal Pregnancy Scan

Our Gender Reveal Scans are highly accurate when performed from 15 weeks of pregnancy onwards. At this stage, we can confirm your baby’s gender with up to 99.9% accuracy, making it the ideal time for a reliable and exciting gender reveal experience.

For accuracy and peace of mind, we do not offer Gender Reveal Scans before 15 weeks of pregnancy. Before this stage, your baby’s anatomy is still developing, which means the accuracy of gender identification is significantly reduced.

All Gender Reveal Scans are carried out using 2D ultrasound, which produces clear black and white images. This is the most accurate and reliable method for confirming your baby’s gender and checking overall wellbeing at this stage of pregnancy. While 3D and 4D scans are wonderful for seeing your baby’s facial features and expressions, they are not used for gender confirmation, as they do not provide the anatomical clarity required for reliable results. That said, we’re happy to offer a complimentary 4D sneak peek during your gender reveal appointment if you’d like one – simply let your sonographer know on the day. Please be aware that before 20 weeks, babies can appear quite slim in 4D images, as they haven’t yet developed their fuller features.

In some cases, it may not be possible to clearly confirm your baby’s gender during your Gender Reveal Scan. This is usually due to your baby’s position or other natural factors that can temporarily limit visibility. If this happens at your appointment, we will happily offer you a free rescan on another day, giving us another opportunity to confirm the gender accurately and with confidence. Please note that this reassurance does not apply to the complimentary 4D sneak peek, as this is provided free of charge and cannot be guaranteed. The primary focus of your appointment is always accurate gender confirmation using 2D ultrasound. Our goal is to ensure your gender reveal experience is both exciting and reliable, with no added pressure on the day.

Yes, absolutely – we know that sharing your scan experience is one of the most special parts of pregnancy. You can bring up to three guests with you to enjoy the moment. Children are welcome too, but we do ask that they are supervised by another adult. However, please be aware that in some cases a transvaginal scan may be necessary, and in these instances, we advise against bringing children or large groups to ensure your comfort and privacy.

Our experienced sonographers do their very best to get clear images during your appointment. However, certain factors can make this more difficult, such as your baby’s position, where the placenta is located, or your BMI. If it’s hard to determine the gender with confidence, we may ask you to take a walk or change position in the scan room. If that still doesn’t help, we’ll offer you a free rescan at another time.

If we’re not able to confirm your baby’s gender clearly, we’ll explain the situation and may offer you a free rescan on another date. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you don’t schedule a gender reveal party immediately after your scan. It’s best to allow at least four days in case a rescan is needed.

Gender reveal lighting is a special feature designed to make your Gender Reveal Scan even more memorable. If you choose to find out your baby’s gender during your appointment, we can reveal the result by gently lighting the scan room pink for a girl or blue for a boy.

Yes, we can! If you’d prefer to keep it a surprise, we’re happy to write the gender down for you. We also have gender reveal items available, such as confetti balloons and gender cannons, which keep the gender hidden until you’re ready to find out. If you have a special request like this, just get in touch and we’ll do our best to help.
