The only way is through ultrasound scan, where you will see an empty sac. That can't be confirmed until about week 7. I went to see doc at week 5 previously and doc say may be too early to see the fetal pole but during week 7, it was confirmed it was blighted ovum.

Ladies, I understand how it feels. I had a blighted ovum last year too. Started having nightmares about loosing this pregnancy too when I first found out. I can only say that stress ain't good for both the mother and the baby, try to relax and take it easy even though it's hard. There's nothing...

My best friend said that as well!

Just asked, the rate now is 2.8k.

I have no idea, am only intending to ask nearer to date.

I'll be getting one. My friend's mum used to be from this industry so she has quite a few contacts from Msia. Am gonna ask her to find me one.

I am still wearing my office wear and heels! It's still so early that I don't intend to let my colleagues or relatives know till 12 weeks. I pantang .

Hi everyone, welcome! please PM me or babydust to join the FB group. Thanks!

That I'm not too sure. My guess is that all their gynaes have long queues so no options for you! My friend's sister goes to another gynae at NUH and waited till 10 weeks pregnancy for her first appointment.

I have a colleague who goes to Prof Choolani at NUH. Apparently he has a clinic at Mount E Novena too. What I heard from her is that once you made an appointment at that particular clinic, you are considered a patient at that clinic and the fees defer greatly as one is a govt and the other is a...

My SIL had Su Lin Lin at NUH and she was happy with her. Those who are high risk will go to Prof Choolani. Another super popular one was Mary Rauff but I'm not sure if she still delivers as she is quite senior.

I understand how u feel. Me too but Doctor can't see anything or do much this early. U will still need to go back in a few week's time. So I've decided to wait till week 7.

Wah u ladies are all taking so much supplement. I'm only taking folic acid 5mg (the ones prescribed by my previous doc). He only gave me that, vit D and calcium pills. Saying that the rest are not needed now. Anyway, I still have a bottle of blackmores pregnancy left from last year. Will...

It's common to feel this way. It's safer to be kiasu. But don't worry, there are many who are successful so keep a happy mind. There's nothing we can do but hope for the best and go see doc soon to check for heartbeat and all. I think that's the only time we will truly relax.

Second actually. I lost my first at 8 weeks last year as it was an empty sac. I used to go Dr HK Ho at Mount A because I've heard about his skills but I find him a bit 'rough' and not as patient. Maybe cos he's famous that's why. Have decided to try out Dr Benjamin Tham after hearing rave...

Yes that's correct. The first day of my last menses was 28 dec and therefore my EDD is 3 October.

I've seen Dr HK Ho in Mount A before. Very popular Doctor, very very experienced. But I've decided to try another doctor instead cos I find him a bit over his head due to his experience and popularity. My colleague had Dr Chua Yang at Mount A, she was full of praises for her.

Hi Alrale Don't worry about it. If it's ectopic, you will experience pain and bleeding. Doc can't see anything this early, wait till you are at least 5 weeks to see the sac. To see heartbeat, that should be 6 or 7 weeks onwards, depending on individual.

I tested positive last night! So excited! Am super kiasu so I've called the gynae to make my first appointment in 3 weeks time.

Hi there! There are a few clinics near your area for e.g. Lawrence Ang at Sun Plaza or Dr Kenneth Lee at Marsiling. I've heard good comments on both doctors. TMC is apparently the most affordable of all private hospitals if I remember correctly. No worries about the smoking part, am sure you...
