Sometimes - not always.

Well there is a machine you are meant to pay for the prints at. I didn’t know this until my very last scan - so never did

Yup, occasionally you’ll get a nice person that’ll slip them to u free but most check the receipt that you’ve paid

No it’s free 🤷🏻♀️ unless you get told otherwise by a midwife or a doctor/nurse.

I got my 12 weeks one free cause the pay machine didn’t work 🤣 ( I tried to pay but a fault occurred ) payed for my 20 weeks photos then had 2 more scans after 20 weeks and got 2 photos for free 1 photo each time, so sometimes I guess depending where you live and go for your scan appointments if you have any extra scans I think they’re likely to slip you a free photo on the odd occasion 🥰 but yes if you live in the U.K it’s known that you have to pay depending on how may photos you want the price ranges from £5-£10 x

Thank you so much . I’ve heard so much mixed information. Just wanted to be prepared for my scan next week

Sometimes they’ll ask you to pay for one or two but give you more than that. It’s very variable.
Sometimes they’ll just give you them.

Each hospital must be different, at my hospital it’s £5 for one, £10 for 3, £20 for 6, xx

At my hospital they’re £3.50 each or 4 for £10 xx

My 12 week appointment letter said don’t forget money for scan pictures but the midwife gave me 2 and didn’t ask for us to pay etc 🤷🏻♀️

Yup £5 each

They are £5 for 1 or £10 for 3 at my hospital xxx

No way. Ours are free. Think I got 8 or 9 each time

I got my 12 week scan photos free but tbf I think it was a kind gesture as she was new and had to get someone else to find my baby so my vagina ended up with an audience 🙄

I was supposed to but the midwife gave me 6 and never asked, so I skipped out and saved myself £15 😂

Lil update: I got mine for free ❤️

We had to pay at nhs hospital
