Baby Chong didn’t make it

Baby Chong didn’t make it.
We went to two doctors and both said our baby stopped growing.
In fact, our baby may have shrunk.

So we have 3 options:
Do a procedure to wash it out (D&C)
Take med and let the med encourage the process
Let it happen naturally.

But the last 2 may not clear completely and if we take med, we will have to wait 3months before we try again.

1st method is the best but scary and expensive.
:(
God, why do we have to go through so many obstacles?
We’ll not give up hope though.

Learning new things every day

like I can gag because the water was too hot it burnt my throat. 😅
So it felt itchy and I gagged.

Gagging is no fun but it’ll be over soon right?
I also learnt that I can dislike food. Like I don’t have any feelings towards food now. I just eat to live. Never happened before!

I suppose we are in week 9. Or 8 at least. So another month to go. I have endured 2 weeks, I can do another 3-4 weeks I think. 😬

All for you baby Chong. So grow well.

Food that pass the taste test

As of now, these are okay:
Pork porridge
Chicken rice
Toast and cheese
Yogurt
Fruits
Biscuits (Jacob crackers 😍)
Milo
Almond drink (thank God)
Clear soup
Rice with fried chicken (nothing with gravy)
Chee cheong fun
Leng yong pau
Egg tart
Butter cake
Peanut butter jelly toast

So for the past 1 week, I’ve been surviving on these. Didn’t help that I can eat a bit at a time so I kept eating whole day. I’ve learnt to tapau instead of eat at the cafeteria cause then I can space out the amount I eat instead of throwing away half a plate.

I can only tolerate carrot and sawi for now - in soup. So very little vege intake for me. Uncle must be puzzled cause I used to only tapau vege and no rice. Now only rice and one chicken drumstick 😅.

Let’s  add more to the list shall we?

A few weeks late

We recently just got our BFP. We have yet to inform any of our friends. Just close family members and people who needs to know due to various reasons.

I’m now in my 6-7 weeks (it’s not determined yet - will know in my next appointment with doctor). Morning sickness has hit just less than a week ago and it’s more of evening sickness. I cannot stand the thought of a lot of food so eating has been a chore. I celebrate small successes.

I’m just counting down to days when I feel okay again. I’ll count every blessings. This whole pregnancy, the times when I’m okay, the fact that morning sickness only came recently and many others. I’ll eat for the sake of not feeling sicker for now. I’ve never had problems eating before this, so this is new to me. 🤣

Let’s count every small successes.
