Does yr sil know which plan name of AIA and Prudential? I'm not looking for life insurance, but rather like a plain maternity cover that covers pregnancy complications charges incurred by the mum and for the baby.
Didn u mummies ask to sign the insurance form after u have done the ET?

I had cysts at right ovary too in early pregnancy. They will shrink as the pregnancy progresses. Just take note and remind doc/sonographer to look at them again during the next scan. If the size shrinks, nothing to worry.scan went well and saw blinking blink heart beat.. but do hv a cyst at ovary but doc say its common for ivf patients after using stimulation drugs..
I suggest put in a file with marriage cert, hosp bills for Medisave claim. Just bring. I know of another mummy whose ivf baby required NICU after delivery. Just fill in the claim form and the hosp nurse/admin has experience guiding u thru this claim. This GE insurance is an exclusive plan between hosp and GE, so if u call GE on ur own, there may not be experienced agents who can guide u thru this.hi mummies. do we bring the GE neonatal insurance document (when we signed up before ET) when we deliver our baby?
Yes everyone has to buy that GE insurance. But some may just wan buy additional insurance just to add on
Hmmm I thought the GE coverage is the same as normal insurance no meh?
I did. But may want to buy extra. That coverage is very small only.. $150 to $300 a day only up to $54k (for lower class stay only). Actually for singleton still okay more for multiple pregnancy where chances of premature birth is much higher.Didn u mummies ask to sign the insurance form after u have done the ET?

Read the AIA link... not very attractive. Lump sum is $5k is too small, looks like no option to buy more cover and the daily benefit is $100 which is not that much either. Hmm and I dislike the fact that its a ILP cover...I prefer term coverages just like GE type.. The conditions of AIA is quite restricted only those listed are covered. As for GE, it is as long as yr baby has to be admitted to a neonatal ward, there is coverage automatically regardless of what kind of condition but GE does not cover for the mummy's pregnancy complications. If only there is such a plan to top up on top of GE and offer maternity complications for the mummy. Like our basic shield plan and the top up shield plan like that.
I know a lot of coverages exclude IVF babies. So need to find one that accept. Still looking for the most suitable one. Guess maybe AIA is the only one offerring. Another type is tagged to Bupa plan but thats very high premium type I believe.

No ms symptoms whatsoever, now nearly 7 weeks. Only sore boobs esp when sleeping &
a faint bump showing since 1 week ago, measuring 3 fingers below belly button. Feel anxious why no other "normal" symptoms. Sigh! Is 7 weeks too early to scan for fetal heartbeat? Very worried abt disappointment
Thank you ladies for encouragement. my first scan is this week. Fingers crossed. How far is everyone in this journey? When did you start visiting a private Gynae?
I'm already in my 37th week. Waiting to cradle my boy in my arms soon. Gynae is suggesting to induce 1.5 weeks later due to my blood sugar levels. So see whether my boy to come out earlier or not. Hehe... if too late i may have to endure confinement during CNY..... I didnt go for private gynaes which i considered at 1st. Coz i learnt that any complications still need to come back KKH..... Which i have seen 2 cases ard me. But if u really wanna change, advisable to be after 1st trim.
Thank you very much! I really pray for smooth delivery and a very healthy boy born! Have faith in your baby and you. It may sound silly. But i have started talking to my boy before my bfp call. It's a kind of reassurance and faith to yourself and your baby. So i put in an amt of effort for prenatal education throughout my pregnancy even though i'm still working. Hope he really absorb what i told him. Hehe... and d chats with your baby will get increasingly interesting when you can feel the fetal movements. You can give it a try. All the best to you too!I hope I can be like you, no MS and like other mummies here to have a successful ivf pregnancy and delivery. Congrats on the addition to the family very soon!

Why muz visit a private gynae? I stick to my ivf gynae which is doc tan throughout, my 2nd bb I'm going back to him also haha

Actually ard last 2 weeks ago in my week 14 I started with a pte gynae already..to scan and excuse to see bbs and also to take yeast infection medication as my NUH doc is too far and long to wait as oppose to this nearby gyane whom I can reach by bus and wait ard 30mins versus 2hrs..
actually no leh cos my bro lent me his stethoscope instead lol..and doppler like got sound waves..im just paranoid to expose bbs to the waves..well that is just me lahHaha..like the part u said "excuse" to see babies. have u tot of getting fetal Doppler?
ms is really bad. I don't necessarily puke all the time but it has sent me into a depressing mode. Sometimes I cried when I had to insert the utrogestan and swallow the duphaston. Talked to my gynae today and he approved of me stopping utrogestan. Hooray! I'm only 11 weeks today but things are very well apart from the mild depression.
Did the panorama test today which is similar to harmony and will know if things are indeed well in a couple of weeks.
I didn't know a stethoscope works. I might hunt for one to listen to baby's heartbeat. Thanks for the tip.
Oic, wondering if waiting time is shorter or easier to get appt with a private one since some operate after working hours and weekends. I'm with sgh and comfortable with my ivf doc as well. But quite difficult to get appt with her. But unsure when's a gd or "usual" time to switch.

Sigh, I dont know how to calculate IVF pregnancy weeks. My LMP was 27 Nov 14, ET of 3d embryo was 18 Dec 14, bt 30 Dec 14. No heartbeat detected today and it measured only 3mm. Sonographer said 3mm is about 3 weeks only. 3 weeks what? Fetal age? too many lingo and concepts to grasp - not sure how many weeks I am now. By LMP, I am at 7 weeks. Today Dr told me i am 5 weeks (how's this possible?) Using this calculator keying in ET date, http://www.babymed.com/pregnancy-calendar-and-calculator-week-by-week, i am at week 6. so confusing... Can someone pls enlighten?
I think just use the online ivf calculator by ET or ER date. That one quite accurate.Sigh, I dont know how to calculate IVF pregnancy weeks.

First scan at 5w2d is from LMP? Or?
No not LMP..all ivf pregnancies they count from the day they retrieve the eggs ER day as ovulation day..so to say ur case ur ER was 15/dec, then when u bt 30/dec u were ard 4 weeks, then by now you should be in your 6th weeks now..
Some ppl heard heartbeats ard week 7 so talk to your bb meanwhile stay positive ok..try to rest well and eat well..i supposed ur doc will schedule another scan again in a week's time to see so u will hear by then
Thanks for the encouragement. is this "week 7" by ivf weeks or since lmp? This makes a big diff esp in first trimester..haha. Fingers crossed anyway.
