Week 6

I've been reading quite a few pregnancy blogs and the blogs I've read gave me some inspirations that it is nice to document this lovely 40 weeks journey. It has been 1 year 1 month after hubby and my customary wedding, but we seriously trying to be parents-to-be for about 7 months since last June. We didn't try right away since there was the honeymoon that comes 3 months after wedding. June seems right to try as we have been married for half a year.

The trying-to-conceive doesn't seem to be as easy as thought by my mom! I had this disillusion that once we try, we'll get conceived within 2 to 3 months of trying since I was often reminded by my mom that I should behave myself so I won't have child out of wedlock. Secondly, hubby and I are young, considering that hubby just 30 last year and I was 27. But!! I was proven completely wrong!!

Hubby and I are actually planning for a pre-conception check coming March holidays if we don't have successful attempt. Think baby dust is suddenly on me! Last month, was a sucessful month!! And it has also proven that hubby and my organs and cells are working normally! =D

So here goes the timeline for last week, story from discovery to 1 week mc!

We did our own pregnancy test at home after missing my period for 4 days! Was surprised to see double red lines after being disappointed for so many tests.. =D I remembered dipping it into my urine and tell hubby that I will shower first while waiting for results. However, hubby stayed and looked at the test.. and he gave a "hmm...?" expression. Haha, after shower, I read the results and told him if everything goes well, he's going to be a dad!

Was the first gynae appt to confirm my pregnancy. Chose my cousin's gynae located at Thomson plaza, Dr Goh Y.C. He's very assuring and experienced. He did an ultrascan and said if there's no bleeding and everything is normal, I will see him in 2 weeks time. He prescibed me florxine, which is generally folic acid.

Went back 2 days later due to a bleeding scare on thurs (21st Feb). This is the scan he did, just to be sure that everything is fine. The bean shape looking dark area is suppose to be the sac that baby will eventually grow in. Doctor Goh says it is implantation bleeding as the fetus is not stable yet. The bleeding scare puts me on a Progesterone injection, many progesterone pills taken twice a day and 1 week MC to rest as much as I can.

Ok lah, been writting quite a bit... I will update again till the next appointment!
