Hi all,
I'm new here, but like all excited new mummy, i was following through a few of the thread and would like to share a humble experience.
This is my First Pregnancy, 3 week ago (my 4th week of pregnancy), i experience cramps, the cramps got worst later part in the afternoon and i was bleeding... I went to KKH 24hrs clinic to do a scan, as my baby is still very small at that time they cant see find any water-sae in me hence they did a HCG test for me, the first reading was 8145. They say that most likely at this level should be able to find my water-sae, they repeated another scan for me.... still they cant find any sae... so they ask me to come back 2 days later to repeat my HCG test. I went to do my test on a wednesday.
Friday, i had a appointment with NUH in the morning and afternoon i was suppose to go back to KKH to repeat my HCG blood test, so i went ahead with my NUH appointment in the morning, I went to clinic G, appointment is at 8.30am. The first thing when i reach the clinic, they ask me to do a urine test, took my height and weight. I waited for lesser then 10mins, i went in to see the doctor. She repeated the scan for me, and she found my water-sac !!! and told me i am about 4 to 5 weeks pregnant. I was over joy.
I went back to KKH 24hrs clinic, as i'm still rather confuse and didnt know what are the test they wanted to do for me... again when i reach they did a blood test for me and told me to wait for 1hrs for the result. the result came back and they told me there is only a rise of 51%, they say for most of the case the raise will be double the amount or at least a 60%, so she say most likely i miscarriage ?!!! I was so stun for a moment and i bring out the scan which i have done earlier on, when she saw the scan, she say ohhh... ok.. the baby is at the right position. So don't worry. they gave me a appointment 7/7/2012 (friday) to repeat a scan and to see a doctor at clinic C.
so last friday i went to KKH for my scan, i waited for 1hrs plus for the scan to be done (i was very happy as i was able to see my baby heartbeat for the first time and was told that my baby is 7 weeks already), then i was told to go back to the clinic , i waitied 2hrs 30mins to see the doctor for lesser then 2 mins !!! I was so upset !!! my first Sub appointment at NUH and sub First appointment at KKH experience is so different. The waiting don't just end here, after finish seeing the doctor at around 5.30pm, i have to wait for another 45mins for the payment and appointment (the appointment they gave me is in this format.. 4weeks,8weeks,12weeks*12 week then there will be another scan*) ...
I have given up on KKH, and had just Call NUH and will be following up with Dr Su Lin Lin. At first i was very undeceived which hospital to chose, but now the choice is very clear. Just my experience and hope this may help new mummy to be
