hi all,
i've made my first visit to Dr Douglas Ong yesterday evening, through recommendation by my Aunt. i was sad after i heard about my pregnancy. it was my first pregnancy after a 6 mths marriage. The baby is only abt 4weeks old, waterbag only 4mm.
the story was like this...
my last menses was on 3rd May.
On 4th Jun, without knowing i'm pregnant (cos normally I have late menses), i went for an x-ray as i was suspected to have either urinary tract infection or having stone. And thereafter, taken some potassium citrate and a rather strong antibotic.
On 10 Jun, my menses still has not arrived, i decided to do a pregnancy test and surprisingly it was a positive. I was very very worried then cos during pregnancy, heard that medication and X-ray radiation will hurt the foetus.
After visit to Dr Douglas Ong on 12 Jun, the radiology scan through my vagina showed that there is a big piece of ~{!0~}meat~{!1~} call ~{!0~}fybriod~{!1~} (dunno how to spell) behind my uterus, this may affect my baby growth. But Dr Ong said that should not be a problem although there are still risk. I even ask can I choose to take away the baby and remove the fybriod. Dr Ong immediately ask me why~{!-~} why did I choose to take away a life just for a piece of meat? He asked me not to have this thought, our lives started like the little foetus too. He will monitor the progress as time goes by. I almost cried on the spot.
What I~{!/~}m afraid now is the x-ray, the medication and the fybriod will risk my baby growth and eventually an abnormal one. Really hate myself for not going check up earlier on. I rather take away the foetus now rather than hurting it for life~{!-~} I~{!/~}m afraid that taking away at a later stage will cause more problem. Should I go for second opinion at kk hospital? Its not that I dun trust Dr Ong, its myself that I dun trust. I~{!/~}m afraid I could not take good care of the baby. pls pls pls anyone can advise me~{!-~}. weep...
