Hi guys, just an update.. and abit of ranting...
I went to a women's clinic near my house on 12 Sept. My LMP is 25 July. Few days prior to my appt, I was spotting some brown blood. I was worried so i bought the test kits again. it's still a BFP.
12 Sept came and the doc did a scan thru the vagina. He told me that there wasn't any foetus, only got a yolk sac, said i am supposed to be 6-7 weeks but it looks like 4 weeks, the pregnancy is a failed one. Advised me go D&C ASAP. He said most likely within the next 3 days i will be bleeding or in pain.
Feeling upset, I went home and dread for the day to come that the thing inside me will come out naturally by itself. I didn't want to go for D&C, too scary. The brown spotting stopped shortly after the appt. 1 week later, still nothing. No pain no bleeding.
I decided to go KKH to see a doc and also arrange for D&C so i can get it over and done with!
Last Sat, 23 Sept, I went to KKH O&G (24 hr clinic) for consultation. Already preparing myself for the worst.
The doc did a virginal scan for me... and guess what?? The fetus is there! Got heart beat also.
I was in shock and confused, how can it be? The KKH doc said I'm 6 weeks, and everything is normal as of now. When I ask her about the 1st doctor's diagnosis, she said all these dates are estimated, might not be accurate.
I went home to google - some women have this happening to them too. They said "the dates are off" I don't really know what it means? Like I'm supposed to be 8 weeks now but the KKH doctor said im 6?
Issit my fetus has slow development? Is this normal??
I'm kind of angry about the first doctor that I went to.. His words cause me emotional stress and keep on thinking about the empty yolk sac inside me. Doesn't he know that dates might be abit off?
PM me if anybody wants to know about the Women's Clinic that I went to.
