Under recommendations from bff, we decided to check out the gynae she has been seeing – Dr Siow from Gleneagles.

We decided to make our first appointment on 5 July because we were still in a little denial and probably wanted to make sure that the ClearBlue was working well. The last few weeks of anxiety was enough to bear and its time to make it clear today!

We arranged our appointment at about 10am, which coincides with bff’s appointment time, but bff went into labour early that morning! so anyway, hubs and i made our way to the clinic not knowing what to expect.

upon reaching the hospital and doing the necessary administrative registration work, first they tested my urine and then blood pressure. height and weight was also taken. the nurses were very friendly and helpful and attentive, i felt less anxious now.

okay so now its time to see the doctor. how would he be?

Dr Siow is very friendly, he has a smile on his face, and felt quite at ease speaking with him. he calculated our EDD date based on my last period (20 May 2014), and did an ultrasound to check out whats in there. He managed to scan a tinyyyyyyyyyyy bean, just a few mm big. He said this could be very early pregnancy but definitely there is something in there!

well as much as we are quite relieved to see that bean, this is the start of something we have not planned!!

wish us luck!
