9 June 2018 (21w): Detailed baby scan

Detailed baby scan, also known as anomaly scan or mid-pregnancy scan or 20-week scan. These scan can be done at the 18-21 weeks of pregnancy.

It takes longer than usual baby scan time, and depending on baby's position. The scan is to check if the baby developing normally and the mother's womb / uterus. Parents who skipped the NIPT Test, has a chance to find out the baby's gender now.

As parents, all we want to hear is baby and womb are normal :)

Dr. Paul Tay of Prince Court does not do detailed baby scan, reasoning his scanning machine is colourless  =.= The only person in Prince Court who can carry out detailed baby scan is Dr. Tan Ay Eeng. Again, detailed scan can only be done on Monday - Friday. So, we're skipping Prince Court once more.

Columbia Asia saved us for another time. We done our detailed scan on a Saturday and costed RM 384.10.
