I was not feeling very well on Wednesday night till Thursday night. I had stomachache and also sudden headache. I wasn't feeling well to eat and felt restless the whole day in office. Hubby drove me to the clinic after work. The doctor checked my pulse, body temperature and blood pressure. All that are fine. Then she examined my belly. I asked if the pain were contractions as my office colleagues are very anxious to hear about my pain. Doc said it wasn't contraction because my belly is not that hard yet. She said probably it is food poisoning. She gave me two tablets of Charcoal to eat. That is to get rid of the wind inside my stomach.
She then asked if the PPUM doctors did perform the scan to check the water level. I said no. She asked me to insist to be examined by a specialist. She said my belly doesn't look big and my baby might be a small one. I then asked her to perform the scan just to be on the safe side.
She started off by measuring the water level, this round it is about 14.5cm, compared to 8cm earlier. According to her, it is a good reading. Big relief for me. She then measured the weight, and it came up to about 2.989 kg. Angel is growing 1 kg more in about 3 weeks time, oh my goodness. Doc asked if I force myself to eat more. I said I ate more compared to before, but can't be forcing myself to eat alot. Anyway, it is a good progress. Angel might come up to 3.5kg.
According to her, the weight shown in the scan might have 20% margin difference. And Angel's head is engaged in my pelvis area already, indicating that I should not be having any problem to deliver normally. Indeed a good news to hear, Angel knows Mummy wanted to deliver normally so as not to spend a lot of money.
Angel, you must keep on growing healthily, you've got just one more month to go. Mummy and Daddy will be welcoming you very very soon. Mummy will get you a nice chest drawers to keep your clothing and items. We'll do our best to make you feel comfy at our new home!
