this is my: health screening and ultrasound centre

I had my first trimester screening with this is my: health screening and ultrasound centre in Leeds. The sonographer checked ultrasound markers for the Nuchal Fold and Nasal Bone, and conducted a full anatomy check on which includes: head, body, arms, legs, stomach, kidneys and bladder, the NHS only check the Nuchal measurement, so the private scan is much more accurate. I was also offered a Pre– eclampsia screening at the same time as down’s syndrome screening, which I felt was important as I had a girlfriend who lost her baby at 7 months because of it, so I was clear that I wanted this extra screening precaution as the NHS do not provide it, only for high risk people. It was £40 well spent for pre-​eclampsia screening and peace of mind.
The verbal detailed information given by Judith at this is my, was far more comprehensive than I received on the NHS, I was not even sure they checked half the things this is my checked for and it took them almost 20 min’s to find the Nuchal !! I was worried as nothing much was said during the pregnancy scan and the sonographer was not very reassuring. I live in Manchester so it was an hours drive to the Leeds clinic but well worth it, I was worried about my second pregnancy after having a miscarriage earlier this year. I wanted the reassurance to know that everything would be OK with this pregnancy and after searching the Internet found a private centre called this is my, who specialised in pregnancy scans and Down’s syndrome screening in Leeds as their Manchester centre opens Mid Sept and another one in Hull in December. I was overwhelmed by how much extra information this centre gave me as opposed to the NHS. I will certainly treat ourselves to a 4D scan and dvd movie in December. Paying privately for the most precious thing in life is money well spent and my pregnancy care is in good hands with this centre.
