First of all, congratulations! Yeah, tell them you tested positive so you want a referral letter. They’ll confirm your pregnancy through a urine test. They’ll also roughly gauge how far along are you. So you’ll need to tell them when was the first day of your last menstrual period. Try your best to give an exact date. All these will be in the notes of the referral letter. # how to get referral letter from polyclinic If you think you’re about less than 6 weeks, I suggest you to wait it out till about 8 weeks or so cause anything lesser than that will have a lower chance of seeing the baby via ultrasound at KKH. You’ll probably get an appt at KKH about 1-2 weeks after your poly visit. You can also save by waiting it out otherwise they’ll ask you to come back to scan again if they can’t detect much. Which I felt was a waste of money for my first time as I was only 5w 4d when they scanned me. It was just a tiny little bubble. Some mummies couldn’t detect their sac or yolk sac at all less than 8 weeks. For me, I was told to come back again and my EDD changed.

So you came in again at which week? Straight away do ultrasound? Because i wanna wait till i am 12 weeks to go so that i can jump straight to ultrasound and skip the tranvaginal scan as i am scared.
