Counting Days

Dear Diary,

I’ve been keeping this little secret closed to my heart since 3^rd September. Nobody knew about this except for immediate family. Last 3^rd September, I went for my check up as scheduled. My gynecologist routinely checked my blood pressure, weight and asked the normal stuffs. Then, as usual she scanned my baby. Ya Allah, my baby was in breech position. This never happened before, not even during my previous two pregnancies. However, she said since the baby is small (around 2.5kg) and I have been pregnant before, there is a tendency the baby would turn back to normal position. Still, she advised me to be extra careful and if I were to feel any kind of pain, I should immediately go to the hospital.

Hubby and I have been praying hard ever since that day for the baby to turn to normal position. Even though I enjoyed myself during raya recently, there was always this uneasy feeling in my gut regarding my baby’s position. There were times that I cried thinking and worrying what would happen if the baby doesn’t turn to normal position.

With very high hope, today I went for another check up. I was worried sick. It was such a huge relief when my doctor scanned and found that the baby has turn to normal position. His weight also has increased to 2.9kg so the likelihood he’d be in breech position is very slim.

I thank Allah profusely….Alhamdulillah!!!

Now, I am waiting patiently for this baby to be born. Anytime....
