Our Life Together

Just as we were so happy, being able to see our precious little one through the ultrsound yesterday with the flicker of his/her heart making us melt instantly, I experienced spotting this afternoon. There was pinkish discharge, relatively small amounts that lasted for maybe an hour or so. Really gave me a bad scare as I was at work. I immediately tried to check on google. Although it was said to be pretty common due to implantation bleeding or sexual intercourse, I was really worried and hence decided to go to the Urgent O&G Clinic at KKH. I took Grab down to KKH and was registered at the clinic. I was told to collect my urine sample and wait for my queue number to be called to see the doctor. It was a really long and traumatizing wait as other ladies were wheeled in, rushed into the emergency room etc. I was alone as hubs was stuck at work. Every second was torturing and I was constantly worried, uncertain if baby was alright.  Finally when my queue number was called, I...

The day for us to see our baby for the very first time as finally arrived! 😍 Both of us were on PM leave and due to the current Wuhan virus situation, we decided not to loiter around KKH. Instead, we decided to meet at Plaza Singapura for lunch first before heading to KKH for the appointment at 2:10pm. We ate Hot Tomato for lunch. Its been quite awhile since we last ate Hot Tomato, we love their salad dressing and aglio olio pasta.  After finishing our lunch, we took a train down to Little India and KKH was a short walking distance from the MRT station. We arrived at KKH Specialist Clinic B just before our appointment time and registration took a good 40 minutes. The staff helping with the registration was extremely slow and wasnt all that friendly. Once we were registered and given a queue number (A0913), we were told to proceed to Room 14 to take my height, weight, blood pressure and to do a urine test. Once that was settled, we then waited outside Room 23 to meet Dr Tan Kim...

We got married on 12th February 2018 and moved in to our new home in Bukit Batok West slightly before the Lunar New Year in 2019. Since moving in, we have started trying for a baby 👶.  After trying for roughly half a year, we decided to go for a fertility check at Mount Elizabeth Orchard in August 2019. The fertility check consist of a pelvic and transvaginal ultrasound, semen analysis and a consultation with Dr Christine Yap. There was another blood test component that was omitted because I had the results from the Medical Checkup I did in late 2018. Basically the blood test concluded that hormone levels and all in my blood was normal.  From the ultrsound, Dr Yap mentioned that I had a retroverted uterus and slight endometrosis. Previously during the Medical Checkup, a cyst (approximately 1cm in diameter) was detected on both of my ovaries. Dr Yap checked again and verified that over a year, the size of both cysts did not increase, hence there was nothing that had t...
