Journal no. 3

A quick post on what happened on 4 Mar... Went to KKH a little early, had to wait 2 hours. The doctor was Dr Ee at the fertility clinic. When we finally saw him, he was asking how long were you married, and when was your last period, he had a template in notepad that was full of questions he filled in the answers to. Then I mentioned oh my last period was 4 Jan but I think I'm pregnant, he was super surprised and quickly deleted the bottom chunk of his notepad text.
Why didn't you mention earlier to registration, because this is fertility clinic, now its something else, he said in a upbeat way.
This is a young doctor with the trendy shaved sides and volume on top hair. I guess he was happy to have a change in topic.
His nurse was a nice young lady who was helpful and patient in speaking to patients K follow ups.
She instructed me to do the pee test,which I did. That involved peeing in a cup then the nurse taking a dropper amount for the pregnancy stick. Then with the results, the main nurse arrange for me to go upstairs to do a scan. KKH is able to send your info off to different depts so I used my same queue number.
Thankfully it was ultrasound and the tech lady asked me to lie down and lower my pants to my hip line. The gel and ultrasound stick pressed into my public area and I saw the sac on the monitor overhead. Then she moved the stick around to check the size of the sac and also the blob inside with a computer line. She said this is your baby. Only one yah. Then she found a cyst but said the doctor will say about it. And she passed me a palm sized print of the blob which should be 8 weeks old. I was a bit happy that the blob was there and had a heartbeat which no one commented on. Haha mostly I was relieved but I didn't show much emotion on the blob though the lady seemed to expect more of a reaction from me.
Then the main nurse called me and said the doctor is free now, so you can see him now instead of waiting an hour.
The doctor was super glad and kept saying congratulations. I think he said that I will continue to see him until 20 weeks unless I wanted to change. Then he mentioned the vaccines to take and asked if I have questions. I said I didn't want to get a big cut during delivery to my butthole, I was concerned about that. Then he was like taking about Western ladies are bigger size and Asian ladies are smaller so the cut is needed not to get the baby out faster but to create a fault line that tears away from the anus. Hmm okay fair enough.
Then I got an mc for the day and prescription for folic acid and vitamins. My consultation for Downs syndrome testing was to be on another day since everyone was out to lunch. And I was too see the doctor again on 1 April.

Overall it was a pleasant experience except for the 2 hour wait when it seemed like ppl who came later went in first. But I think it maybe because they were regulars and waited elsewhere first.
