Nanairo Ladies Clinic

I'm 30 weeks pregnant, and I’m getting regular check ups in Nanairo Ladies Clinic. (Map)
I think it is the nice clinic, the doctor is very gentle.
Ms. Anna has already written a detailed article about the clinic in Alien Times, ( click and check the text )

and I'd like to add a little more information.

Prenatal check up fee
7000 yen at the first visit
6000 yen each time after the first visit(0~23 weeks : once in a month , 30weeks~35 weeks : every two weeks, 36weeks ~: every week check up )
Tsukuba city gives you money help 14 times from 2009 April. If you submit the yellow paper which is distributed to every expectant mother, the check up fee is supported up to 5000 yen, 14 times.
Ms.Anna gave me the comment, and she added that "probably (like all other clinics) the cost for the checkup can sometimes be much more if you are having blood tests." That's true! I paid about 9000 yen when I got blood test even I submitted the yellow paper. You would have blood test at least 2times during prenatal check ups.
