False Alarm

I must be getting old ... after confirming the blood test result, HCG level is good i.e. 66589.8 mIU/mL. I can sleep well tonight ...

Down, down, down ...

Blood test result has dampen my day ... HCG level has dropped drastically which the chinese sinseh wants me to drink 4 bowls a day now with more "placenta" added to boost up the HCG level. The progesterone level is slightly higher than last week.

The scan on last Saturday showed that the baby has grown to 4.07cm and the heart beat is 161 bpm. What a relief!

Time seems passing very slowly since Thursday, after knowing the blood test result. Progesterone level has dropped instead of going up. Chinese sinseh has ordered me to increase from 2 bowls to 3 bowls of chinese medicne per day (it's a wishful thinking that I can do without the chinese medicine when approaching 2nd trimester ...), in order to prevent the progesterone level from going down which may pose danger to baby. Tomorrow will be another "exciting" day as I'm going for a scan.
