What to expect during a limited OB ultrasound

After a nurse consultation and

positive

pregnancy test

results

, our staff

may offer

a free

limited OB

ultrasound exam at our clinic. 

During this exam, our staff

focuses on

three questions: 

1. Do we see a pregnancy inside your uterus? 

2. Do we see a heartbeat we can measure? 

3. How far along are you (by measuring the pregnancy itself)?

Gathering this information through an

ultrasound allows our Medical Director to then confirm a viable pregnancy.

• To confirm a viable pregnancy and its location in the uterus. A pregnancy located outside the uterus can cause medical complications and cannot be remedied with abortion pills or procedures.

• To check your baby’s movement and monitor for a stable heart rate.

No, because sound waves are used to conduct ultrasounds, it is safe for both you and your baby, with

minimal risk.

After a free

 ultrasound at Liberty Women’s Clinic, our staff can discuss all your options

with you

. Will you continue the pregnancy, place for adoption, parent, or consider abortion? Our team is here in partnership. Contact us today for our free services.
