I'm an IVF soon-to-be mummy. my first scan was done at 6 weeks. and then 8 weeks. my blood works and other tests will be done at 12 weeks. my doctor has already booked my appointment date for the tests, check up at 14 weeks & 20 weeks. I'm at KKH.

Yes, that’s a good question - what does the 12 week test involve? Can you share?

Went for my first checkup at NUH under subsidised route today, 8w0d. They ordered blood tests and also did an ultrasound to check for gestational sac, yolk sac, fetus and heartbeat. Good luck!

Thank you so much! I managed to call them today and apparently its because theyre still trying to find an earlier time slot for me.

I’m not under NUH but for my first check up, the gynae did a transvaginal ultrasound scan for me, answer your questions if any, and schedule for the next appointment (one month).
