I am, well, hashtagstillpregnant.
Haha.

Baby is officially in Mummy’s uterus longer than Kakak Khayla. Hee.
Now I kinda regret not taking 1 or 2 weeks leave prior to my due date.
Almost everyone I meet at the office will have the same question to ask, “Eh tak beranak lagi?!” or “Eh ada lagi?!“.

Haha.
I am still not overdue okayyy people !

Anyway, I went for my antenatal appointment at my workplace today and the gynae told me that my amniotic fluid is slightly on the low side, and since I am already in week 39, he suggested that I get an induction, stat.
He told me to head straight to the Hospital Sungai Buloh (where I had plan to deliver my baby) and get the baby out. *gasps*

Okayyy, this was not something I saw coming.

Headed home but instead of going to Hospital Sungai Buloh, Mr Sunshine took me to Hospital Umra which is like a 10-minute drive from home.

They monitored baby’s heart rate and whether or not I was having contractions using a CTG machine. Alhamdulillah everything looked good.
Had a ultrasound scan done which confirmed that my amniotic fluid level was borderline.

The doctor gave me 2 options:
1. To go home and think about having an induction tonight
2. To go home and gets loads of rest and come back for another scan on Friday.

I decided to go for option 2 considering the fact that the CTG and scan results were fine (well apart from the amniotic fluid levels).

We’ll see how things go in a couple of days.

Pray for me k !

You know you’re in your last month of pregnancy when things that fall on the floor, stay on the floor.

Alhamdulillah, I have reached week 38. 🙂

So far, there are no signs of impending labour !
I had my bloody show around this time when I was preggers with Khayla (and gave birth to her two days after).

Baby’s head has been down since before I entered 30 weeks (so you can imagine how many times I need to pee a day) and as at last week’s checkup, my gynae told me that I might go into labour soon.
Heck, almost everyone I meet have been guessing that I’d go into labour early with this one, so it kinda made me hope so too. Plus, am tired of driving to and fro work already, haha.

I have been experiencing lower abdominal cramps (menstrual-like) and backaches but no real contractions thus far.
Reading about mothers going past their due dates is not really helping my anxiety. I know that our due dates are only an estimation but you’ve gotta hold on to something, right ? Hehe.

Well, at the end of the day, Allah decides.
And all I am praying for is a healthy baby & smooth delivery. InshaAllah.

Do keep me in your prayers, ok ?

Ok bye !
