hey steph, my Gynae did a Vag. scan for me at week 4 and she can locate the embryo.. and the total cost only 285. for early pregnancy (before 12 week), it will be better to do a Vag. scan to locate the embryo. cox the size of the embryo is only size of sesame seed at week %.. so dun worry!!Hihi ace. Doc didn't do transvaginal scan. He did the normal scan from tummy though. And that cost me $293 with an unknown answer. Now feeling lost and was schedule to see him next Tuesday. But the thot of another $293. I think it's too expensive. Any recommendation for a more reasonable gynae? Thank![]()

Hello all!
Tested positive but had been spotting for the past four days. Seen Dr Jen at AMK and had a jab, Duphaston tabs and hospitalisation leave for 5 days as he advised bed rest
His charges are very expensive ($400+ for first visit) and my hubby isn't comfortable with him. Trying to change gynae now but need to go back after 7 days once our Duphaston is up. Any advice?

Congrats. Have you booked an appt with your gynae? Any cramps or pain? If you can, please ask for an urgent appt with gynae or walk in, he/she will check and give you medication to support the pregnancy. And you should try to bed rest more.Hi All! I have been ttc for 3.5 years, period usually is on 18th.. Missed for 2 days, on 21st March I checked it was a dark Positive.. I'm so happy but scared at the same time cos we waited so Long for this miracle baby.. Today, 27 March, which I'm at 5w3days pregnant I kinda have brownish red discharge.. I'm really worried I and I keep peeking on my pantyliner (sorry TMI) if there's any reddish stains... I'm so scared... Any advise? I'm just so afraid that period might just suddenly appear..

My advise for all mummy is alsways get a gynac that you feel comfy and confident to work with. Give birth is a big ops even if by natural birth method. feel free to keep on changing gynac/hospital until you find one that you at truly happy. Your current gynac is not the only one in SG who can prescribe duphaston.
I am glad your hubby and yourself is also taking into consideration finance matter too. There are couple that i know of focus on a lot of other equally important thing but neglect this financial aspect which is equally important and have significant impact downstream too.
Jia you.
Hi
I have the same issues as you. Gynae gave me a jab, Duphaston and ordered 5 days of bed rest. There are many suggestions online say if no cramps is ok...but some say it could be threatening. But I think it's best to go see a gynae. Have you made an appointment to see the gynae?
Good luck![]()

Thank you!
But the other gynae recommended by a Friend is only available on Monday (while my Duphaston prescription ends this coming Thursday). So I'm abit perplexed.Don't really wanna go back to the same gynae but don't wanna delay the check up
My hubby is Super uncomfortable with this gynae as he will roll his eyes when my Husband ask questions. And my hubby finds it Super irritating. Haha.
Hi All, Tested positive today & have an appointment with my gynac. Scan show 4 week 5 days but no yolk sac shown in scan. is this normal??

Hi All, Tested positive past 2 week, 7 week and 2 days today, deliver baby on Nov 2016.
We look for Confinement lady and do you have good one to recommend?
Hi all mummies!
First pregnancy here. I tested positive 3 times 2 days ago. However I have bad cramps (similar to menses) for weeks already. Is this normal? No sign of bleeding, nothing.
@Mhopeful Thanks! I am at 4 weeks 4 days. is it too fast to visit gynae?
Hi everyone! I am new here!
Went to the gynae yesterday and tested positive, 5 week 3 days!! First time mommy...super excited and nervous. Quite expensive though...S$313!! : ( any recommendations for reasonably priced consultation + tests fees?
Also am having some stomach cramps (like those cramps before menses). Anyone experienced that before?

@Mhopeful haha! I was told that we are too kaisu. But being first time mommy and daddy we are so anxious to know if the little jr is doing fine. My cramps are bearable though.. Just worried as it was quite frequent throughout the day. Plus I have no sign of nausea so far, I guess it's too early to tell yet. Just wanna confirm that I am pregnant. Haha!
I am meeting my Gynae this week at KKH TPS. Was told the consultation cost $140 and above by the nurse.
Same.. I am working in a Chinese company and they don't really promote work life balance. And there was once my boss hint us not to get pregnant. Struggling when should I tell her about it.
Yar.. My hubby afraid that they would do something funny and force mommies to leave on their own accord which happen in my company before. My work requires lots of OT (they consider as standby).I think I wait till I am in my 2nd trimester den say bah... shall wait.. Jac, ur work always OT?
Hello. congrats mummy. If you are a SG person, then the cheapest way is to go to polyclinic to get a referral letter so that you will get subsidise status, then go to a govt hospital such as NUH, KKH etc, with the govt subsidy, it will be the cheapest possible le, just take note that if you decide to go on this subsidies route, you cannot choose doctor and also cannot choose to stay in A class ward. Subsidy does not mean low class OR/AND use cheapo medication ya. Lots of uneventful and successful delivery are subsidy patient de. I think i am not wrong to say there are more mummy on subsidy then private patient route.
Jia you.
Thanks!!! Appreciate your valuable advice!!
But I heard that we won't get a fixed doctor in government hospital is it?
My friend recommended Thompson. Is it a good choice?
if you are taking subsidies which need referral from polyclinic, which you don get a fixed gynae from government hospital. But you can opt as private patient from govt hospital, however deliver ward can only choose from B1 above with fixed gynae throughout your pregnancy. That's so far I got from KKH nurse just now.
Hi All,
just curious, they say cannot attend weddings, birthdays, baby showers etc etc.. is it true or just myths?
