Stomach is getting bigger day by day and i begin to feel our precious movement. Very subtle but if we are patient enough, we can feel the movement. Bit by bit. :) I have gained about 7kg so far since pregnancy and im hoping that it is still within the acceptable range though. #Fingercrossed
I have just went for my detailed scan during week 20 at TMC and was told that i am having pretty slow blood flow to our precious. Dr Tham mentioned that this is not a serious matter and it is quite common among pregnant mommies but i do not see it from the rest of my pregnant friends.
In pregnancy, coagulation, platelet function and clotting factors are all affected due to hormonal changes. I was prescribed with Aspirin to help to ease and prevent blood clotting in the deep veins. This also means that i am unable undergo any cuts or fall as the blood will be thinner and oozing out ALOT which may be pretty hard to stop as well.
I was also told to move around as frequently as i can. No more sitting down or standing up for long hours as it is going to affect our precious. Dr Tham mentioned that we do not need to worry as things are under controlled. Looking forward to our gynae visit next week! :)
