Little Steps #3

Blood BhCG levels 48 hours apart - taken. 

During those 3 days, we only told our Ayah about the situation - but he was calm about it and reassured us that everything will be alright. 

The awaited day has come. It was around 2 days before the 1st Syawal. 

I was working on that day but had taken permission to leave the department for a while. H took Grab to my hospital and drove to our ObGyn.

We had to wait a bit before meeting the doctor. It was quite nerve wrecking. 

Alhamdulillah the second BhCG levels raised more than twice the value of the 1st reading. And alhamdulillah the fetal heart pick up its rate around 130-140 bpm.

It was a huge relief for both of us. Although belum tentu lagi outcome akhirnya macam mana, tapi for the time being, our heart is settled...a bit. The next appointment is for another month. I needed to continue the Duphaston tablets, and to set an appointment with GH ObGyn to discuss about my huge right ovarian cyst management. 

We broke the news to our family members on the first day of Aidilfitri. It was a joyous occasion filled with gratitude and warm wishes. 

For now...all is well.
