  7. Hi dear, i think the fees you paid is way too expensive. You can try another private gynae, Dr Venga at Tampines, my 1st gynae fees cost less than $100. There will be ultrasound and pills also included... With Dr Venga you will be deliver at Eastshore and can chose which class you want to be warded after labour.. Trust me, its not that high..Maybe every month visit will cost you $80 bucks or so..

    Anyway that brown discharge is common during the early pregnancy, i experience that too.. it will go away after 6th month or depends on individual.. :)

  8. Thks dreamloverlady,
    i jus got a package from tat gynae at $550 for the rest of my check up til birth... u thk reasonable>??? tat package can use to offset my first time visit cost as well.. n tat include all normal blood test n scan n medicine n consultation...

    my first visit can b so x.. i b4 is dur to the hormone table i got.. $25 per pack lol...

  9. $550 is okey... Better take package...Save lots of trouble.. At times you might feel unconfortable down there in the womb, its normal but shouldn't bleed... If bleed, see that gynae immediately, thats where the package comes in handy..

    You may call me SITI. Take care mommie to be...

  11. heyy do not say that. Mum must be strong, then baby will be strong, share with you something. On my 7th month pregnancy, i had a freaking fall from the bus. You may refer to my blog, which i blogged abt. I was at KKh for observation for 4 hours...

    As you know 1st baby is the most precious and prone to miscarriage.. But im glad that the baby strong will to live is very strong! After that fall, i cried so much even during the observation.. I was so scared i lost the baby at 7th month! (That was on 070707) the date i can never forget...

    So you must be strong too. Think positive is important.

    Take all pills or tablets that was prescribed by gyane. You may feel like puking taking the same pills everyday, but do it for the sake of the baby...

    Im sure you can make it dear...
