Scan of the Week: 20 Week Scan

This adorable baby was captured during a Well Baby Scan at 20 weeks gestation.

The Well Baby Scan

This scan is typically performed from 20-40 weeks and is a great opportunity to:

  • Bond with your baby
  • See their development
  • Check in on baby as your pregnancy progresses

What You'll See at 20 Weeks

At 20 weeks, your baby is about the size of a banana and you can see:

  • Detailed facial features - nose, lips, eyes
  • Fingers and toes - all clearly visible
  • Active movement - kicks, stretches, and somersaults
  • Developing organs - all systems taking shape

Why 20 Weeks is Special

The halfway point of pregnancy is an exciting milestone:

  • Baby is fully formed and now focuses on growing
  • Movement becomes more noticeable to you
  • Many parents choose to find out the gender at this stage
