The coast is slightly clear now. My bleeding has stopped for more than a week now except for the little spotting this morning. A bit disappointing but still thankful that I have come this far. I restarted my Duphaston just to be sure that I won't bleed the next few days. We had an appointment 2 days ago. I was never happier to find out that the blood pooling was gone and that my cervix lining has thickened. Seeing the baby move and hearing its heartbeat made my heart so full. I could resume normal activities but still need to limit any strenous exercises. That was easy I thought until the spotting today made me realised that the past 2 days activities were probably too much for my body. I should take it easy. During the ultrasound scan, Dr Ben could see the gender. My husband was excited to know but I refused to know until birth. So in the end, only he knows the gender now and the suspense is killing me. I have a strong feeling that it is a boy and regardless, I love my babies all...
15W1D gestation and 3W of bed rest today. Alhamdullilah , baby is still sticky in my tum-tum. It was definitely not easy to stay positive while on strict bed rest with minimal movements and still bleeding on and off. Will baby survive this? There were so much uncertainty ahead of us. But hey, I am slowly getting used to this. The trip to my gynae's clinic was not that easy. I was easily breathless and felt sick the moment I walked or stood on my feet for more than 5 minutes. I think that's what bed rest do to your muscles from all the lying down. Sitting down while waiting for my turn was no less comfortable for me. Needless to say, with all the movement I made on that day made me bled much more than the usual days. We did the ultrasound scan the moment we're in the room. Thankfully, the blood pooling had gotten smaller in size from the scan. When I saw my baby wriggle and heard its heartbeart, I felt so relieved. My gynae extended my hospitalisation leave to another 4 week...
