I had spotting for 3 weeks and I had been advised to bed rest for about a month. My appetite was not good and had pregnancy sickness.
I worried quite a lot for little baby because of my past. However I also try to stay optimistic. I am very hopeful to my weekly gynae visits. My baby's heartbeat was detected about 7 weeks.
I could only eat very little only. Bread was the best food for me during that period. For rice and porridge, I could only eat a few mouthfuls and would feel very full. At least, I could eat the whole serving of bread with cheese. Nausea, puked every night and I felt no energy at all. The progesterone medication make it worse. I really slept a lot during that period of time.
Luckily, I had my sis-in-law with me during that time. She was very patient and understanding to me. My weekly gynae appointment were accompanied by her. The biggest achievement which she has done was she prepared dinner every night! I'm really grateful to her.
Back at work, my colleagues were very understanding. I get tired very easily at work and I fell ill with fever during my 2nd week return to work. I went to bed as early as 7.30pm and was able sleep through the night.
There were no outings and shopping for both my hubby and I. I stayed at home and fall asleep very easily. I lost quite a lot weight.
During our 12 weeks NT scan, baby was detected normal. As long as my baby grow healthy and normal, my hubby and I will be very happy and satisfied.
