Went for my first gynae apptment this morning at Gleneagles Medical Centre. Had a hard time finding a lot at the car park so hubby dropped me at the lobby 1st while I went up to the clinic to register. Was given a urine tester with 5 (or 6?) colours. Well, the nurse told me that is not a pregnancy kit but its somehow a tester for testing (hmm I don’t know to test what lar!). The result was good. And then I was brought into a room to take my weight/height and blood pressure. While waiting for my turn, I browsed at the photographs sticked on the wall. There’s a huge wall with all the babies photo and their parents, together with the gynae Dr Chan. The babies are so cute!! I saw twins and triplets. Kekeke… Just before I went in to see the gynae, hubby arrived. Well, my baby is now 4 weeks and 6 days old according to the scan. I was feeling quite awkward and find it embarrassing at first because they did a vaginal scan for me which initially I thought it should be ultrasound scan? Anyway, the gynae explained all different parts in me to us and I was really very tensed up!! He kept asking me to relax and relax.. but my palms were sweating badly and I was really very nervous. Hahaha… At last, I guess all my embarrassment and tension were unneccesary because they are all very nice people. Well, I guess sometimes its really 一分钱，一分货 lor. We pay for their excellent service too. Will be going back to the gynae in another 2 weeks’ time for another scan to check the heartbeat. I hope everything turns out well. *pray hard* The bill came up to $219. I almost want to faint. I think its freaking expensive compared to my other friends whom visit other gynaes. But what to do? I chose to see Dr Chan at Gleneagles so I guess I have to accept the fact. Checked with the clinic assistant if every bill is almost this amount, and she said “ya, about 200 odd lor..” *faint again* The breakdown of the bills was; Consultation $107 Medicine $5 Scan $107 I told hubby we must ask more questions the next time round because the consultation is so expensive! Hahaha.. Anyway, Dr Chan has instructed me not to gain anymore weight from now till week 14. And from week 14 to birth, I can only gain 10kg the most! I think he knows that I am fat enough bah. Hahaha.. LOL. As for the EnfaMaMa milk powder that I bought at the supermarket last night, its of no use to me now too because Dr Chan forbids me to take that milk powder. Sad to say, I’ve already opened up the seal so I can’t bring it back for exchange anymore. My sis-in-law has recommended me a female gynae in Mt. Elizabeth and seems like the consltation and scanning is cheaper. However the total amount of money she paid for all the consultations + packages added to about 1.5k which I think mine will fall into that category too. Ahhh I am quite lost now. I am not sure if I wanna change to another gynae or still stick to this current one. Everything is so expensive!! OMG. Labels: Gynae Appointment |
