Sorry sangat!!!
I know I was supposed to update my Blog yesterday but due to I-myself-tatau-lah-apa-yang-busy-sangat, I forgot to update!! (Read: Kemalasan melanda sebenarnya! Hahaha! :P)
So sorry lah yerrr... :)
Well well, back to the Saturday baru² nih... Shall we?
Hmmm. What did we do that day eh? Trying to recall jap nih... Lately I tend to be absent-minded!! I think it's due to the Pregnancy hormones now... Huhuhu!
Apa ekk yang jadi... Hmm uhmm...??
Haihh!
Ohh right, now I ingat! *wink*

***Attention!! This is going to be a veryyy long entry! Kalau rasa² malas nak baca, sila abaikan okeh!! :)***
Oh well...
Remember the previous post entitled "Tomorrow..."?? ;D
Well....... Lets just say that the konon² "special" day for me & Husband turned out veryyy so-so!! I mean, the first part of the day lah... Not the entire day though because I managed to cheer up my Hubby and made him forget
What really happened that morning!?
Okay, I'll tell you! :)
Well, before I proceed... I'd like to say sorry if ada yang tak setuju or tak puas ati with my statement or comment about whatever I'm going to cerita² lepas nih okay? Mind you... Different people, different experiences okeh!! Heh! :)
Hmmm...
Few weeks ago when I was probably in my 25th or 26th Week of Pregnancy, I called VC to query about their 3D/4D scan service.
As what they said, I can start making an appointment now (at that point of time) since their schedule is quite full at the moment so it's better to book my slot earlier! (FYI, at VC the 3D/4D scan is recommended for Preggers in the range of 28 to 32 Weeks Pregnant.) So yeah, I booked our slot straightaway!! Hmmm. I planned to have my 3D/4D scan when I'm 30 Weeks Pregnant which will be sometime in between 5th May to 11th May 2009. I booked on 8th May 2009 (Friday), to be exact! :)
Well well, few minutes after I made my booking... Someone from VC called me back! Ohh... They gave me an offer!!!
On Saturday (25th April 2009), they have this some sort like a "meeting" or "event" or more like a discussion among Gynae² and OB² and what they offered me was... A free 3D/4D scan session (with a CD) and RM30 fuel vouchers! It was a good offer... No!? Honestly... In my mind, I was thinking that "best jugak nih kalau dapat Gynae² or OB² yang do the scan for me instead of the sonographers... Bukan selalu dapat offer camnih kan? FOC plak tuh!"...
So yeah, after discussing it with dearest Husband, you guess that right... We took the offer!! Heh!
On the day itself (last Saturday)... Jeng jeng jenggg!
After everything is settled and done, what I can
There were 3 timeslots that day, and we picked the earliest session which was at 10:30! And yeah... We woke up pretty early that morning and dah tercongok kat situ at about 09:45ish! Seriously... We were that early!! Plus dengan tak breakfast nya lagi... Ala² puasa gitu sebab I thought nak wat scan kan so better biar perut kosong and just minum air kosong jer... But I was
Since we came early, one of the sonographer attended to us and suggested that we do the 3D scan first before the doctors arrived. During that
So after few minutes of trying, she asked me & Husband to walk around first and try to make our Baby moves, then come back after half and hour! It's still early kan so yeah... We went & had our breakfast at the nearby Mamak Restaurant! Hmm. And while eating, I keep rubbing my belly and talking to Baby Jr. so that he will pusing and show his Mummy & Daddy his cute little face!
So at slightly before 10:30 (as per the scheduled session with the doctors), we were back in VC waiting area. The same sonographer attended us back after she's done with another client/Pregger... Hmph! She scanned me and again, Baby Jr. was still in the same position. She asked me whether I felt the baby's movement or not, and I said yes! He did move okeh... Tapi tatau nape dia tak pusing! So takpe lah kan... Dia pun try² laa tekan² sket my belly and cuba nak capture Baby Jr.'s face... But again, failed to do so! Haihh... And guess what?? Since Baby Jr.'s face was not so clear and hard to capture, we only had 2D scan throughout the entire session! Well... Over lah kan I cakap camtu? Okay, okay! Yeah, she did turned the 3D-image view but only for a while because she wants to make sure the position is correct and clear before she switched to 3D-view. Okay, fineeee... Tapi memang boley kira lah berapa seconds jer dia tunjuk 3D-view itu okeh!! Yang lain² sume 2D-view jer... :(
And yeah... It was already wayyy past 10:30! If I'm not mistaken, it was already 11:00ish when another sonographer peeked in to our "partition room" (paham kan? Alaa... Bukan dalam bilik pun, just dalam ala² partition room cam kat general wards tuh! The "partition room" separated by blinds tuh...) and informed us that the doctors have arrived and will come in anytime soon!!
Ohh I was excited!! Hehehe...
So the sonographer who attended to me earlier went out from the room and her place was replaced by the other sonographer PLUS the 2 doctors (one from a Clinic in Puchong, one is from Columbia Hospital, Seremban)... They greeted me & Husband and started doing their "thing"!!! :)... :(...
Ohh! What seems like forever sampai membosankan my Husband...? You want to know what they actually did??
Like my MIL predicted... I was treated like a "guinea p*i*g*"!!! They didn't explain anything to me, nor to my Husband! :( :(
What they actually did was...
They did a 2D... I repeat, 2D scan on me (at my belly & the famous one was of course, our precious Baby Jr.) and the sonographer was actually
Ohh!! One of the "good" part of the scan session was this... They spent sooo long viewing our Baby Jr.'s heart from different views!! I was excited at first because I got to see the inside of our Baby Jr.'s heart... The best part is, I got to see the 4-chambers of his heart & boyyy I was so excited and happy to see the valves dalam heart Baby Jr. yang sangat active moving & functioning and pumping his blood in & out!! Ohh such a miracle... Such a touching view!!! 1 thing that I'm glad (which I overheard the doctors said)... Baby Jr.'s heart is developing and growing
Tapi geng, tu jer lah kot some of the things that Husband & I dapat tau from them! Itu pun indirectly okeh... They didn't say like... "Ohh Puan Anita, your baby's heart is bla bla bla... Your baby's kidneys are bla bla bla..." & this and that... No no nooo! We just overheard their conversations because they were actually talking and discussing with one another sahaja... And sort of (in a way) ignoring us, the future Mummy & Daddy of the little one that they're viewing on screen!!! Bluerghhh... By then I realized that Hubby's face has turned bengang and bosan!! I was blur at first but later I understood apa yang my Husband fikir and rasa... Iskk! :(
Ohh!! Sampai hati mereka² tak cerita apa² to us... As the Parents-to-be, we have the rights to know!! Betul tak!?? *sob sob* :(
So overall, I can say that they were actually
Hmmm... After they've done konon²nya examining me & my belly... The doctors said "Thank you" and left the room to proceed with other "volunteers" in other rooms!! Huhuhu... And the sonographer remained with us and konon²nya sambung balik lah the 3D scan for us! Chettt!! Bukan scan apa sangat pun... 3D-view for few minutes then DONE!! Apakahhh??!! She didn't even do the 3D scan betul² okeh!!
We went out of the room feeling confused and blur... Especially me!! My Husband muka dah HOT dah time tu... Pastu while waiting for the so-called CD (which I doubt ada pictures yang clear of Baby Jr.), my Husband dah
So being me... I selamba went back into the room where we had the scan just now and thank God the sonographer was still there, saving our "scan pictures" in a thumbdrive! Hmmm. I spoke to her directly... I cakap lah yang what we had just now was not really 3D and we had veryyy few 3D pictures and bla bla blabla... Berubah muka minah tu okeh!! Dia pun explain lah cakap memang dorang kasi limited pictures to clients and showed me the pictures yang kitorang akan dapat... Boyyy, I tell you arr! You can see almost nothing on the pictures!! Not even a clear view of the face... Okay, maybe salah I jugak (ye ke?) sebab my Baby tak pusing tunjuk muka kan but at least, tryyy and capture other parts ke?? Nih tak... Apa yang I tengok, sonographer tuh cam tak paham² I cakap yang the 1st sonographer yang attended to us earlier tu didn't managed to capture apa sangat and the session with her was only for few minutes, then dia dah soh kitorang jalan² and come back! Sebab tu tak banyak gambar... Yang si 2nd sonographer tu plak langsung tak capture apa pun for us and amik sebijik² apa yang 1st sonographer tuh captured earlier (before we had the sessions with the doctors)...
Ohh you guys paham ke nih?? Heh!
So the 2nd sonographer pun maybe nampak kot muka I yang tak puas ati kan, so she suggested that I come back next week (which is this week) to make another appointment for them to do the 3D scan for us again as the ones that they've captured today sangat lah tak clear... She said that she will still give me the CD for the pictures that day, and next week during the repeat session, they will give me another CD and they won't charge me at all! Heh... Sounds like a good offer again kan!? Tapi my Husband tak suka and tak agree!! He said, he had enough with VC and the place!! He doesn't want to go there ever again... Errkkk! So I informed the lady and cakap, if we want to repeat the scan, I'll call back! She said okay...
Hmmmm.
After few minutes, she came back and gave us the CD! Hmm. Not so excited dah... Cam ala² dah frust sangat²!! Huhuhuhu...
(Picture Source: http://www.davesdailydose.com/2009/02/23/sigh-sometimes-that-is-just-how-you-feel/)So yeah, my Husband asked me to find other 3D/4D service anywhere else except there! He said, mentang² lah FOC... The service sucks habis lahhh!!! Ohh soo true! Maybe sebab FOC kot sebab tu service ntah hape²... :(
Nevertheless, beside all the crap service that we got from them in VC... In my personal opinion kan, I think it's all because it was FOC!!! Kan? Kan?
I rasa kalau service berbayar, maybe elok sket kot?? Haih... Ntah laa! But Husband & I are sooo done & over with VC! Sorryyy but we're not going there dah...
End of story!!!
Heheheheehe... :P
So panjang bebenor entry kali nih kan?
Sorry people! I'm just expressing whatever yang Husband & I rasa pasal nih... It's our very own experience & I guess that was one of the unlucky day in our life!! So kene bersabar jer lah kannnn? Hohoho!
Done with that, more to come about our Saturday...
So stay tunedddd!! ;D

P.S. Due to ntah hape² pictures that we got in the CD, so NO 2D or 3D PICTURE will be displayed here! Huhuhu! And one more thing, just to let you know that Husband & I were at VC from 09:45ish to 12:00 noon plus!! But the result?? VERY FRUSTATING... Yang dapat cuma the RM30 fuel vouchers tu jer lah! Bukan vouchers pun... They gave us CASH instead!! Ohh rasa seperti "dibayar" untuk service "pinjam" perut! Huhuhu! :( :(

grrrrrrrr.. geram gak baca cerita nits nih... sian u guys.. huhuhu
kesiannye korang..xpe, try kt tmpt lain plak k.
Wow they didn't take any time to explain what was going while the scanning was being performed? That sucks.
I went in for my anatomical U/S today and the U/S tech explained every single little thing to both of us. From head measurement, facial structure -nose, eyes, ear, lips, abdomen-heart, rib cage, stomach, liver, kidneys, bladder, his femur/leg bones, normal growth, toe bones, everything and so much more. We even got the 4D imaging as well.
I live in the US and this kind of checkup and routine prenatal are fully covered by our medical insurance. But still, you guys should be informed about the U/S, paid or FOC. I know your baby's growing like he should but you have the right the know and ask! I didn't really read the whole entry but did you ask to explain at all?
Anyway, I hope you will have a better experience at different place. I'm sorry it didn't go so well for you and it wasn't right for them to keep any information from you, his parents. They can't pull the patient privileged crap on you!! Gah!
I hate it when these so called doctors/ sonographers scanning my belly and not telling me anything about it. FOC or not, that is not right!
tumpang geram sebab i pernah kena pasal buat check up kat private maternity hosp tapi doc diam je probably wait for me to ask questions and what not.
i think the service sucks coz it was FOC. i went to VC too last time and paid RM60 for the 3D session + a CD. the session turned out quite well and the sonographer was really nice. ur case is kes terpencil kot..hehe
stoopid fella...ggrrrr..geramnya..
Hi babe,
I rasa even gomen yg free pun tak kan bt camnie..
Yela Knit, maybe bcoz FOC and kt VC tue kan tmpat org blaja, so they just amik kesempatan jela as what u've said... but if I were u, time dorang tgh ckp each other while scanned ur tummy, masa tue jugak I akan mencelah.."excuse me, i'm here..why both of u ignoring me seolah2 my perut jer yg wujud time tuh"...
Ishh.. klu i, i pun sakit hati juga.. babe, pasni gi bt 3D/4D tempat lain.. and becoz u dah experienced all this, tak payahlah kot i pegi sana..hihihi...
Cool ya babe!
sy baru nak book kat situ jugak..huhuhu..teruk gile service dorg..mmg dorg mcm used awk je knits..jahat betul....
knits, mana awk tau sha tu kakak nadia?nadia yg junior tu ke? erm..sy pun xpasti..coz selama duk email and sms ni xpernah pulak tau..hehehe..tapi sha tu very caring la..
haiyohhh..tumpang geram juge! bab mcm bg service pinjam perut tu yg tak dpt bersabar tu. Huu.
Anita,
I pun tak suka mcm ni.BOSAN! Thanks for sharing, I ada gak terdetik nak gi sana one day tp skang ni, nak pk beribu lemon kali lah.
Everyone,
THANK YOU for each & every comments.. I tatau lah nak cakap camne.. Tp me & Hubby dah cool down sket.. I think, it's because it's FOC lah.. And on Saturday mmg bukan day utk 3D scan pun.. Kebetulan ada sessions with the doctors, so sbb tu laa kot we didn't get to do the 3D scan btol2.. plus, i think ada miscommunication between the 1st n 2nd sonographer sbb tu they x scan i balik lepas dah abis session with the doctors.. tp tu lah, time with the doctors tu lah yg sakit ati sket.. mmg dorang discuss among them jer.. i nak tny pun, dah tatau dah nak tny per.. sbb dorang dok discuss "bukan pasal condition baby" but pasal "how to scan like this, like that.. to get whatever type of view".. somehow rasa cam dorang dok blaja nak guna machine lah plak.. heh..
i'm trying to think & stay positive here.. u guys jgn lah terus boycott VC plak.. i read reviews pasal experiences org lain kt situ (yg berbayar lah tapi) & sume ok jer..
i rasa we were unlucky sbb it was free kot... YAT, AMIE, FADD dearest, u ladies gi lah try sana nnt.. yg paid service, i'm sure OK punya.. :)
okay lah.. now i ada 1 place nak try plak.. dekat2 jer ngan my hse.. i baru dpt tau pasal tmpt tu.. we'll see.. i just hope we get to see our little one in 3D-view.. tak penting sgt pun 2D or 3D tapi teringin lahhh!!! hehehehe..
so never stop hoping, Anita!! chewahh.. stay positive, Everyone!! go try VC okeh.. paid service sure OK punyaaa.. *wink*
XOXO,
Anita :)
anita, omg.. kesiannye u.. i did my 3d scan there but xde plak cmtu.. hmm, it's so unlucky that it happened to u.. cheer up ok? try la tmpat baru tu..
oooo.....i penah jd bhn eksperimen vc gak but i was treated dgn sgt bagus. i jd bhn eksperimen masa student nk exam. but i was informed earlier on so didnt expect much from it.but it turned out great because bila student exam, dorg kena present to their examiners their findings kan...so i heard the explaination too.
kesian kat you.
teruknye.. cian u guys.. x ske kan bila service cam hape.. x hormat kita pun.. kalau i pun boring kalau jd camni..
