Positive!
Hi mummies! What is the next step after knowing that i tested positive? ?
Congrats! Start taking 400-800mcg of folate/folic acid daily to minimize risk of neural tube defects. Schedule a gynae appt between week 7 and 12. Any earlier, you may not see much from the ultrasound scan, e.g. can't even see embryo yet, so it's quite pointless. Week 7 onwards, good chance of detecting heartbeat but it's too early for dating (to find out expected due date) so no real hurry. Do read online about the new diet to follow. There's a couple of stuff to avoid.

Some mothers go through KKH first under subsidy until 3rd trimester then switched to private. Just to save on the costs. So better to discuss your finances with your partner first if money is not going to be an issue for the whole 9 months.
