Yesterday I went with Mommy and Mahmah for Mommy's antenatal visit at NUH.
Mommy was made to lie on the couch then the doctor puts this device on Mommy's tummy and immediately we can see baby! It's so amazing! I can see baby's head, body and legs. The sonographer points out baby's eyes and nostrils, as well as the heart and liver to us. The sonographer has to take many measurements to make sure that baby is growing and developing well.
Finally nearing the end of the scan, the sonographer announced that I am going to have a didi!! I am so happy that I have to announce it to Daddy once we stepped out of the scan room.
After the scan, we waited for Mommy's turn to see Dr Anna. Dr Anna looked through the scan report and informed Mommy that there seems to be reduced blood flow to the baby. She asked if there was a family history of high blood pressure, but there was none in our family. Dr Anna said that we'll have to monitor baby closely and she recommends another scan next month to make sure that baby's growing well. Dr Anna asked Mommy to eat well and rest as much as possible.
OK, no more walking around for Mommy, Mommy must be confined to the bed.
