Heartbeat

Hi I’m subsidised patient for firstborn and current pregnancy. You’ll get to hear baby’s heart rate on visits without scan. Not every time your visit will have scans so they’ll use a fetal Doppler to hear your baby’s heart rate. If there’s any difficulties hearing especially due to maternal habitus, there’ll also be a simple ultrasound machine to have a quick scan. Not as thorough and clear as those in AMC or ADC. Below are my appointments for my firstborn in 2020. ✅26 Feb - 1st scan @ AMC (forgot) 5w4d ✅30 Mar - 2nd scan @ AMC ($135.16) 11w ✅9 Apr - FTS DS scan @ ADC ($285.50) 12w3d ✅4 May - Doppler for heart rate ($47) 16w ✅11 June - Gender Reveal @ ADC ($131.36) 21w3d ✅14 July - OGTT ($83.50) 26w ✅8 Aug - Breech @ ADC ($63) 29w5d ✅12 Aug - Doppler for heart rate($62.36) 30w2d ✅2 Sept - Doppler for heart rate, scheduled C-sect on 14 Oct ($47) 33w2d ✅24 Sept - Baby head down @ AMC, c-sect cancelled, swab test for bacteria ($147) 36w3d ✅8 Oct - Doppler for heart rate($47) 38w3d ✅15 Oct - Doppler for heart rate($47) 39w3d 19 Oct - EDD confirmed on 1st trimester, baby born 40w emergency c-sect
