Your doctor will usually wait until at least six weeks to perform the first ultrasound.

Can you book a scan at 6 weeks?

How early can you get a scan? You can get a private early pregnancy scan at 6 – 12 weeks. By 6 weeks the doctor should be able to see your babys heartbeat on the ultrasound scan. The heartbeat will be visualised and not heard at this stage.

Should I be showing at 6 weeks?

Your uterus must grow larger to accommodate more than one baby. So whereas someone expecting a singleton may not show until after 3 or 4 months, you might show as early as 6 weeks.
