The first formal check up with a doctor

Since kami dah overexcited sangat, the same night that we had our pregnancy test, we also went to a clinic nearby to double confirm and tgk dah berapa minggu dah sebenarnya aku ni berisi (not berisi dengan lemak, tetapi dengan ‘lemak’ lain… haha).

So, we were called by the nurse and a male doctor attended to us. Masuk ke bilik doctor, dia tanya: “Ye, ada apa.” “Oh, saya nak Tanya pasal period saya tak datang,” “Hm, nak tau awak ni ngandung ke tak, ke? Nurse, bagi botol. Awak amik botol ni, buat urine test,”
Erk? Kereknya. The least he could do is say hi ke, apa ke… then cakapla elok-elok sebab kami ni first time parents. Tapi, takpelah, aku pun keluar semula dengan Naza and I went to the toilet, do the stuff and pass it to the nurse at the counter.

“Pn Aida, masuk ye,” nurse tadi panggil lagi sekali. Doctor said: “So, betullah you mengandung. Bila nikah ni?” Naza menjawab: “8 Disember 2007 hari tu doctor,” “Hm… (sambil membelek-belek card apa ntah) maknanya dah lebih kurang 5 weeks dah ni. Ni kali pertama ke mengandung?”

BANGANG ke apa ni… Tadi dah cakap aku baru menikah… “Tak, ini first time la ni…” aku menjawab sambil ala-ala menjeling. “Biasanya kalau belum sampai 6 bulan lepas nikah, maknanya pasangan tu belum bersedia lagi. And I think you are not ready too.”

WTF??? “Well, frankly, saya ada la baca buku sikit2, nak tambah maklumat.” “Oh, itu tak cukup. Pregnancy can be scary, you know...” Doctor ni dah lebih la ni… “Thanks for the advice,” “Yes, sure. Nanti you datang semula in a month for check up”

JANGAN HARAP. Naza dari tadi lagi berdiam diri. Macam tak percaya dengan apa yg doctor ni cakap. Dahlah takde tahniah, tak salam Naza, tak macam dalam drama pun….

So, that’s my first encounter with a lame doctor, yang tak pandai nak tackle patient yang baru pertama kali nak jadi parents. To all yang penah ada pengalaman sebegini, share la.

Serious when you say tak macam drama...I thought this story is more dramatic, in the sense to show that how this doctor can be such a jerk! Macam skrip drama. Klinik kerajaan ke haper ni? Kalau swasta, harap lingkup la...alamak, terlebey sudah!
