Dear all,
Happy Lunar New Year.
After 2 days of house-visting, very tired...but still tmw need to work because I din apply leave.
No one suspect I preg, though some concerned relatives did ask me, when u going to have bb?
I ate alot of junk food while at different relatives house, bah kwa and pineapple tarts, yummy yummy!
Some updates from my last gynae visit on last Fri, 23/01:
- Gynae measured the neck of the bb from utlrasound, it's 0.4, i duuno wat that means, high or low, anyway, gynae said it's gd.
- Saw bb bouncing when the gynae pressed the ultrasound thing against my tummy...very cute!
- Took blood test, as part of my combined NT screening. Outcome will be known this week. Nurse said "no news is gd news" and the report will be given to me on my next visit, which is mid-Feb.
- bb now is 5.5cm.
- gynae started me on 2mths of iron pills and calcium pills, both are at least 1 cm long, big pills.
I duuno how to swallow pills, really an agony when I 1st took them, the pills make me wan to vomit the minute they are at the back of my throat. Really xin-ku... End up, I gave up and chopped the pills into powder. Stupid iron pills are so hard, cannot chop, cannot dissolve. So, I went to Guardian to buy chewable or liquid iron. Finally, I bot a bottle of liq iron. As for cal pills, lucky it can be chopped and dissolved into my milo/milk for preg women.
Anyone having difficulty in swallowing pills? I can only swallow folic acid , those tiny pills lor..
