Went for check up with John at Gynae’s clinic today. Julian was at my mother in law’s place.
Really thank God that nothing had happened over the past week while John was away. Indeed, God will not give us a cross we cannot carry.
It is confirmed to be a case of empty yolk sac. Baby has not grown and the water bag remained the same size as a week ago while the yolk sac has shrunk. The water bag is also irregular in shape so all these meant that the pregnancy has ended. Fresh bleeding has also been observed so we have decided to go ahead with Dr’s advice to proceed with D&C this Thursday.
Back home, we showed Julian J3′s scan print out and told him baby is like a balloon in mummy’s tummy. He said “Baby is like ball”, smiled and gave baby a kiss on my tummy. Julian has grown so fond of baby and is already showing he can be a very caring kor kor. The saddest part of this experience is looking at how attached Julian is to baby, but won’t be able to see what baby is like. For now, we will think of a way to explain to Julian that “Baby is up there”.
Dear friends, thank you for all your prayers!
