25 May 04 - The Day

The appointment with Dr Ellen Li was early in the morning, at 8.30 am, to be exact. I spoke to my hubby before I went to the clinic. The conversation calmed me down.

Dr Li is a Chinese gynae trained in US. She looks pretty young, married, with no kids. I told her about my symptoms and suspicion. She asked me to do a urine test.

Moments later, she presented the truth to me. "Congratulations! Ms Tan, you are 6-wks pregnant!"

OH YES!!! I am pregnant!!! Dr Li went on to explain the 'Dos' and 'Don'ts' about pregnancy to me but I just couldn't concentrate. My mind was busy with thoughts.... is my baby going to be a boy or girl.... where should I deliver....? Of course, right after the visit, the first person I called was my hubby. I wonder what was his first thought when I told him that he is going to be a father?
