6 weeks 2 days

Baru balik dari clinic. Doctor said I'm at 6 weeks 2 days. Biar saya start dengan good news dulu.

Did an ultrasound and doctor said there was a yolk sac and a sign of a baby present there. Dan bukan ectopic pregnancy for sure.

Yang agak menakutnya, doctor was a bit worried coz I'm still spotting. And still belum dapat detect heartbeat and the sac size is a bit smaller than it should be. My sac size is 9mm dimana sepatutnya sizenya 15mm. The doctor kata 2 possiblities:

  1. sebab beta hcg saya memang start rendah (20, 40, 100, 253), so the development a bit lambat.
  2. the embryo ada cromosom problem and later on will misscarriage
Yeah mine looks small and doctor kata just wait and see if it progresses or if I will have an early misscarriage. I think it's pretty standard for doctors to warn that it is possible in the early stages when dates aren't measuring up. Apa2 pun saya harapa sangat ianya kerana yang no. 1.

Will be going back on the 30th July so I'm hoping to see something more. So saya kena ambil injection proluton depot 2-3 hari sekali sampai next appointment and teruskan ambil ubat2 lain.

Day 20

Tadi pergi clinic ambil Pruloton Depot injection. Still kena ambil selagi bleeding or spotting. Lepas amik injection I asked my nurse what my odds were. She said that I shouldn’t give up hope yet, but that I shouldn’t let my guard down either. Dia cerita ada patient lain baru call, had same bleeding tapi positive (something similar with my situation), BUT she had an history of 2 extopic pregnancy. Hmmmm. I really hope mine is not kandungan luar rahim. I only have 1 tube and I can't iamgine not having any. Nauzubillah.

Btw, anyone know of success stories of low betas and bleeding heavily macam kes saya ni?

Oh to my hubby and people out there who are wondering the beta range, just have a look at this chart of Beta Scores For Successfull Pregnancies k? Maybe we still have hope http://www.betabase.info/showBasicChart.php?type=Single
