When to see a gynae and how to confirm pregnancy?

A couple of questions to ask. I’ve gotten a positive on the pregnancy test kit. Where do I visit to confirm the pregnancy via blood test? Does polyclinic do a blood test? Since it’s a bit pointless to do another urine test there if I’ve already done it at home? When should I start visiting a Gynae? Or visit a gynae as a 2in1 to confirm pregnancy through scan as well as for pregnancy advice? Thanks in advance! First time mummy here

Typically if u alr have a positive on the test kit, u don't need a blood test. I didn't take the blood test. I'm not sure abt polyclinic as I went on the private route. I called my gynae's clinic for appt. At the first appt, gynae did an abdominal ultrasound scan and baby's heartbeat can be seen and heard. I was abt 8 wks then. Any earlier u wld need to do the vaginal scan.

Yes I cld only get a slot on wk 8 as it was during last year's CB. Anw it's also advisable to see gynae ard this time as any earlier, the chances of seeing baby's heartbeat is lower.
