Spotting

I had brown spotting (bleeding) yesterday. I first realised it at around 2.30 during my regular visit to the loo (yes, it is getting more frequent now)...then about an hour or so later, i had like minor cramp on my left leg...and at the same time my belly feeling hot. Went to the toilet and spotted more brownish blood and for that brief moment i was panicked and sweated.....I was like " ya Allah kenapa ni?" , packed my bag and off to the hospital.

Called my gynae, he's off for umrah--great! and other gynae had left at 5pm---ahhh awesome!!...so had no choice but to book an appointment with an MO. Tried to calm myself as i have read somewhere before about spotting during early pregnancy ....it can be harmless but still can be a sign of miscarriage....i was praying hard!

Duan waited for me at the hospital.....we were directed to a Locum-i felt like fainting!...Told her we wanted to see a gynae whoever on call for taht day...she called Dr Suraya, (the doctor who delivered Adib 6 years ago) - she instructed her to prescribed me Duphaston - i think this pill is to work with the changes in hormone - and told us if it's brownish it's ok can come back the next day to scan.

That was what we did this morning , met Dr Suraya, she scanned my belly ...moving the scanner left and right...and posted me this question "are u experiencing pregnancy symptoms? and when did u say uyour last scan" and she's having this expression " betul ke pregnant ni ?"
Her face expression made me lost myself for that second and I was totally blank and unable to think and ask Duan "when was my last scan?"

....and Duan had that blank look as well...

Then suddenly, the doctor spoke, "there u go---can u see the heartbeat--that tiny little moving things"...

Ya Allah....alhamdulillah......and we witnessed the heartbeat of our little one for the first time...

So folks, if you experienced this same spotting/bleeding during early pregnancy, it is actually a common thing. It could be due to various reason , the one i experienced is called Implantation bleeding can occur anywhere from 6-12 days after possible conception. Every woman will experience implantation bleeding differently—some will lightly spot for a few hours, while others may have some light spotting for a couple of days.

But still dont take it lightly, just get yourself checked and confirmed!
