Advanced Fetal Growth Monitoring for a Healthy Pregnancy
A Growth Scan is an important ultrasound performed during pregnancy to monitor your baby's growth, development, and overall well-being. At Sattva The Fetal Medicine Centre, we offer comprehensive Growth Scan services using advanced ultrasound technology to assess fetal growth, estimate your baby's weight, evaluate amniotic fluid, and monitor placental health. Our personalized maternal-fetal care helps ensure the healthiest possible outcomes for both mother and baby.
What is a Growth Scan?
A Growth Scan, also known as a Fetal Growth Ultrasound, is a detailed ultrasound examination performed during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy. It measures your baby's size, estimates fetal weight, monitors growth over time, and evaluates important factors such as placental function and amniotic fluid levels.
The scan helps ensure your baby is growing appropriately for the stage of pregnancy and identifies any conditions that may require closer monitoring or specialized care. Early detection of growth concerns allows timely intervention, personalized pregnancy management, and improved outcomes for both mother and baby.

Find answers to common questions about Growth Scans, fetal growth monitoring, and prenatal ultrasound examinations at Sattva The Fetal Medicine Centre.
Yes. A Growth Scan is a safe and non-invasive ultrasound examination that uses sound waves to assess your baby's growth and overall well-being without harming the mother or baby.
The examination usually takes 20 to 30 minutes, depending on your baby's position and the information being assessed during the scan.
Some women require only one Growth Scan, while others—particularly those with high-risk pregnancies or fetal growth concerns—may need additional scans to monitor their baby's progress.
Yes. The scan estimates fetal weight using standard ultrasound measurements. While highly accurate, the estimated weight may vary slightly from your baby's actual birth weight.
A normal Growth Scan is reassuring and indicates that your baby is growing appropriately. However, no single scan can detect every condition, so regular prenatal care and follow-up appointments remain essential throughout pregnancy.
