Viability Scan Question

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but is the viability scan at 7-8 weeks an abdominal scan or a transvaginal scan? Do I need a full bladder?

Hi I think it's normally a transvaginal scan so empty bladder 😊

I think the baby is too teeny to pick up via an abdominal scan xxx

Yes it’s an internal scan

Can’t remember if you need a full bladder

Good luck x

I think I was asked to go to the toilet beforehand so no need for a full bladder.x
