My 15weeks + 5days appointment at KKH

Firstly, I am under the subsidized route of KKH. Also this is my first pregnancy. So today I had my 15 weeks 5 days appointment at KKH and was suprised that I had no scan scheduled. Turns out it is just to hear the baby’s heartbeat (which lasted for only 30 secs) and consultation with a doctor. What a waste of time!!! 😂😂I asked so many questions regarding my previous blood test and doc just said that all is normal and good… and that’s it. I asked for more pre natals cos I finished almost one box of the obimin and fish oil. Guess what? The bill came to a whopping $147.23. Very suprising that only pre natal vitamins costs me this much with the hassle of going down to KKH at 8 in the morning 😂 Oh well. Looking forward to my 20th week then! P.S this is only my 3rd appointment and its already costing me almost $500… I wonder how people have many kids and keep up!! Times are hard 😂

Yes you will only get ultrasound from week 20 onwards with doctor consultation. We dont get a lot of ultrasound check otherwise will be more expensive. What I can see from the bill that the number of boxes and bottles of obumin and fish oil given to last you through pregnancy. Being a subsidy patience under C clinic the waiting time will be long and just quick check with doctor about mummy and baby. I'm under subsidy for first child at NUH and second child at KKH. So it is about the same. Unless, you take gynae under Clinic B perhaps, it will be different experience however, the bill will be much more expensive as you dont have subsidy given.

Yeah exactly they have been helpful just the waiting time. I like the morning slot than afternoon slot 🤣
