Hi all, I'm just wondering where I can book for a private scan as I'm going semi private in Holles st and not getting a scan with them until about 20 weeks.
When I rang Holles st, the woman I spoke to said that I could go to Charlemont clinic, but they told me today that they don't do this type of scan, they just do scans to confirm pregnancy, not foetal scans (?). I haven't really got a clue what's going on

I was hoping to get somewhere next week, I'll be 11 weeks then and want to tell our parents, but would love to have the scan first. Help please!

Hi downwiththissortofthing, i am going semi-private in Holles st and couldn't wait the 20 weeks either.
I went for a private scan in Rathgar. The ladies name is Paula Tunney and i think she has a place in Swords aswell.
Think the website is if not just google her name.
They were really nice, im going back for my 3d scan in two weeks, can't wait

Best of luck

I was 8 weeks and because its private and you are paying the fee of €100 they don't really ask you why you want it.
Just when i was chatting to the girl doing the scan i said i just wanted it for reassurance and because there are twins on both mine and DH's sides of the family.
