Private ultrasound

Going for a private ultrasound to confirm gender at 16w. What do they normally tell you? Just gender? Do they tell you how long the baby is and heart rate?

They told me gender and heart rate which was a relief. Thanks ladies!

My private ultrasound place does gender, heart rate, length and weeks the baby is measuring, shows us where the placenta is and everything. They just can’t tell us if something was wrong! I’ve been to our place three times and love it!

Usually private places are not diagnostic and will tell you that up front. They can give pictures and gender but few will give the heartrate even. Thankfully ours does since the dr is against ultrasounds before 18 weeks and will only give 2, one at 18-20 weeks for gender and another at 30-32 weeks. So frustrating.

I did use private ultrasound for the fact that hospital doc told me that we dying bcz of the placenta my rainbow is not breathing enough and what was worse is that she gives us special by January month end and we are dying now that when we go back to the clinic need some advice bcz I couldn't eat sleep she send us to a private ultrasound that's when we got gender and merssure the baby bone to bone it takes 2 hours to finish the process it was R600 acc to South African money so am happy and my due date is before June now my rainbow🌈😁 is a boy

How much does that cost if you don’t mind me asking! I had the panorama done and it came back inconclusive! Thought about doing this but heard mixed results of accuracy!

Ours only said gender. Wouldn’t let us hear the heartbeat until 15 weeks (we were only 14w). No measurements, observations, nothing. Just “looks pretty convincing to be a boy” and “so there’s a leg” type things.

Yes, we’ve heard the heartbeat in office, that was just the private ultrasounds policy, I’m sure for legal/liability purposes.

Wow, wouldn’t let you?? So strange. I heard the heartbeat at my doctors office at 7weeks and every visit since then!

Think of private scans as a fun time. The serious stuff is saved for the clinic. They legally can’t give you bad information.

When I went to an outside ultrasound company they only told me gender.
