We had been wanting to see it to truly believe the miracle. I called up my usual gynae at ACJ with Dr Jocelyn Wong and she was so fully booked. I managed to get a slot on the following week which is today.
Our appointment was booked at 430pm. The man of mine was actually LATE. Things didn't went well at the tailor shop where he needed his measurements to be taken for his No. 1. Needless to say, i have been counting down since the day i got the appointment schedule. Yida reached my office at 4pm!!!! We were rushing allllllll the way to get there in time. TMC carpark was only meant for valet parking. Without a choice and time, we had to give our car for the service. Off we rushed to the clinic.
Oh my. The clinic was so packed! Every single seat was taken and all women were carrying their tummies already. I felt like so 'undeveloped'. Haha! We were about 15 mins late but only get to see my gynae at 6pm. Gosh! However, the anticipation to see our baby replaced our impatience.
To tell the truth, we weren't listening attentively. Haha... our eyes gleamed when we could move to the ultrasound machine. Dr Wong wasn't very positive in seeing the baby on scan since it was calculated to be around 6 weeks. She asked Yida to wait outside the curtains and he felt so disappointed. Haha....
To her surprise, she found my embryo without my full bladder. And what amazed me most was the heartbeat. Dr Wong shouted out to ask yida in to view it. He was totally captivated by mother nature. I kept asking if the heartbeat was good enough for 6 weeks and she assured us it was of the right size and beat. Phew!
This is the very first picture of little baby chong! Right now, the placenta has not totally formed and the yolk sac was a main source of nutrients for the embryo now.
The next appointment is 3 weeks later!
Oh i almost forgot to mention that our car was scratched during the valet parking. We were too absorbed in discussing the baby till totally forgot to check the car. =(
