"I" sucked my thumb @t... Thursday, October 09, 2008
On Sat 13th Sept, we made the visit to Dr Mary Yang. When I called to make an appointment with the nurse, Jocelyn, I expected to have to introduced myself since the last time I was there was in 2006 but when I mentioned my name, she immediately said "I remember you! Congratulations !!" Well I guess they don't forget difficult patients easily !!
In any case it was nice seeing Dr Yang again. She looks younger and younger since I last saw her. One of these days must ask her secret! She glanced my record and noted I had history of low FE so she scheduled a blood test for my next visit. Since my risk for gestational diabetes is also rather high she is gonna make me drink that sweet sampai nak terkencing dreaded orange potion again, also on the next visit. The package I took for Mubarak in 2006 included 1 3d scan (although she gave me 2 free 3D scans) but this year the package includes 2 3D scans !!!
We brought Abang Mubarak along for the gynae visit and of course most of the conversation centred on him. Doc Yang noted he loves books, (he read to her!) and that he was sociable (he called her "Auntie" LOL) and asked me to remember to do everything I used to do with Mubarak in-vitro for this baby as well. (eg reading, talking, rubbing etc) Dr Yang is a huge natural advocate and believes in-vitro interaction has a huge effect on the baby.
When I was lying there on the bed and the doc switch on the huge monitor I was greeted with the all familiar black and white image of my womb. And then came the sound of that familiar horses hooves running ie the baby's heart beat. As usual, The Don stood by my side holding my hand as we watched the scan together and this time the lil' boy sat perced on the edge of my bed as the good doctor showed him the baby and asked him to point to where the baby was. Whatever apprehensions and reservations about being pregnant so soon ebbed completely away when I caught sight of that little pulsating peanut size growth in my womb and that feeling of wonderment, excitement and anticipation washed over me reminding me of that euphoria I felt when I first saw Mubarak on this same screen.
Ya Allah, forgive me for having even the slightest doubt that this gift you are giving us is coming at the wrong time. I realise now that YOU have this all planned and that this time you choose is the best time that we could ever ask for. Insya'allah I will do my best to be the best Umi I can be to both my children and never (Insya'allah) will I ever take sides or play favourite among my children because I realise what huge gifts they are.

Umi found out about me on 6th Oct (6th Ramadhan) I was then already 7 weeks!!! So far I'm showing all the same symptoms as Abang Mubarak when he was in-vitro. But Umi hopes I will be a girl !
