What if I Have Pregnancy Symptoms?
Pregnancy symptoms can be confusing because they can also be symptoms of other conditions. Many women wonder if they are imagining symptoms in hopes or fear of being pregnant. So, detecting the early signs of pregnancy without a test can be tricky.
You could also be pregnant even if you used contraception. No form of contraception offers a 100% guarantee. If you’re worried about being pregnant, the best thing to do is to take a pregnancy test.

Our Ultrasound Services
Our nurses are trained in limited obstetrical ultrasound. We can offer an initial ultrasound to look for three things: To make sure pregnancy is in the uterus, to look for viability with a heartbeat, and to compare measurements with your last menstrual period dates.
We will make sure you are completely comfortable during the exam, and you can expect no pain or discomfort during a typical ultrasound exam. You will be able to see the images on the monitor during the exam. Our services are free of charge and kept confidential.
