2nd opinion on Placenta Previa

I went to Singapore Mount Elizabeth Hospital to seek for 2nd opinion this afternoon.

The doctor says the same... placenta previa

There kills my hope for natural birth...

"It is ok. Many women that have placenta previa do not bleed until baby delivery". The doctor says.

"However, you HAVE to go for cesarean because the uterus is "blocked" and there is no chance for you to give birth naturally."

and doctor advised to go to the fully equipped hospital as there are risk to the mummy and baby..

The placenta previa is a case of "accident" that the embryo did not stick on to the right position, but drop down to a lower part.

There is nothing much that i can do, besides eating more red meat.. because likely i will more severe blood lose when giving birth.

Bed rest wouldn't help as the placenta is fixed into position already. It is certainly not because I walk too much.

But, should any bleeding happens, lying on the bed is to help to stop bleeding (only if it does help).

And, if severe bleeding occur before the mature time, then i will have to stay in the hospital until doctor decide the best time for cesarean.

Doctor is confident, that if the baby is 32 weeks old, almost all the baby can survived..

If everything goes on smoothly (i.e. no bleeding), then doctor will normally operate and bring the baby to the world 14-21 days earlier. Hence, my benji will be a December boy instead of January boy..

I should consider to give birth in Singapore instead.

Bad news from new Gynae

It is ok.. i keep telling myself.. Everything is going to be alright &
just fine..

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alvin & I went to the specialist for check up yesterday.. planning to
change a proper hospital to deliver benji...

Gynae scan my tummy and gave the ''surprising" (or rather scaring) WOW..

Not a very good news from the gynae--- the placenta position is too
low, might lead to risk of miscarriage if i don handle it well.

Rest more, don take heavy items, no sex, he says

my mind is empty..

Should any bleeding happens, must go to see doctor immediately... he
continues,

If the bleeding is serious, then he has no choice but to scarifies the
baby.

Take good care of it, and we will do cesarean for you when the baby is
mature. There is almost NO Chance for you to go for natural birth.

There is nothing much that can be done, it's week 26 already.

Just.. rest well

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Benji, you have been doing well with mummy till so far.

Don give up.

Mummy will bring you come to the world safely. Don worry.

u just eat (absorb) well, rest well, and play well inside the protection
zone.

Don bother to come out so early, you little curious kid...

Mummy will tell you when it is right time to come to the world..

There is many to explore.. but not your time, yet....

We must be strong to overcome this together.. you, me & daddy

Benji, we love you.

Be strong..

i Hate brushing teeth now...

I hate brushing teeth nowadays...

the toothbrush go into my moth in white (with toothpaste) and came out
red (with blood).....

and i can feel that the gum is swollen and really uncomfortable..

what can i do about it?

I ask my gynae if i am losing too much calcium and he said it is not
because of that...

bleeding is purely because of swollen gum...

and he advice me to see dentist instead!!

Is that true??

I need advice......

or should i change my toothpaste?

A date with mummy...

Daddy was sleeping soundly...

Baby loves papa

I cannot imagine how the baby (even inside the tummy!!) can react to
my feelings.....

yesterday alvin was back home late. i tried to call him but he did not
answer the call.

so i become very nervous and started to get worry...

and the little one also kei po kei po join in the "kan-jiong-ness....

kicking here and there.. like instructing me: "hey! look for daddy! i
want daddy!"

until alvin return calls, the little one still non stop kicking...

"hey, don forget me! i want to talk to daddy too! i miss daddy too!"

sigh... very troublesome father & baby...

i have to entertain both... i become the messenger in between pulak~~~~~~

I was very tired and need to sleep....

and the little one just cant stop kicking.......

"hey, i have not talk enough! call daddy! i wanna talk to daddy...."

sorry darling.. mummy need to sleep....

muahahhaha...
