Hello everyone!
Just popped in to update u gals abt my first gynae appt!
I had a really long wait. Coz we finished lunch early, dinno where to go, & we ended up at the clinic half an hr earlier. However, we waited for almost 1.5h past my appt time to see the gynae! I tot my bladder was gonna burst from all the water I drank!
Anyway, saw the water sac & babylet from tummy scan, but cudn't detect heartbeat. Gynae asked me to choose between waiting for next appt or to do a V scan now. I opted for V scan coz I cudn't wait!
So after relieving the poor bladder, I had a V scan & I saw my water sac, yolk sac, babylet & the heartbeat! I was so relieved to see it pulsing away. Gynae said that with a heartbeat, the %age of miscarriage drops from abt 15-20% to only 5%. And from the V scan, she cud do a more accurate sizing of babylet. It's now 3mm, exactly 5weeks 6 days old.
Keke, exactly what I calculated fom my O date, so my O date was really very zun leh haha. So relieved & happy when I saw the heartbeat.
So I strongly recommend to those who are gog for 1st appt, pls do a V scan if u can't see the heartbeat from the tummy scan. It will set your mind totally at ease. My next appt is in 3 weeks. I can't imagine my stress if I had to wait another 3 weeks to see if babylet is alive
Ok, rather tired.. I shall go rest. Chat more 2moro
