20 Weeks: What Happened?

Yes I am now midway through my whole journey and yesterday marked the beginning of my 20 weeks. 

I woke up, took my weekly bump photo and went to work as usual. I felt a sudden, sharp and acute pain at my lower abdomen in office and it was contant and lasted for an hour plus. I even had difficulty walking. I tried walking to the toilet to check. There was no bleeding and I urinated as per normal. I cried in my office and my colleagues were very concerned. I called B to come and fetch me. My colleagues even wheeled me to B who took my car. 

We went to KKH O&G. The female doctor who saw me was very young. She didn't do an ultrasound. She only used a doppler to hear baby's heartbeat. She took quite a while before she could capture baby's heartbeat as baby was moving and turning a lot. She also checked my cervix. There was no bleeding, no water leaking but there were quite a lot of white discharge according to the doctor. She took a specimen of the white discharge for further examination as she was worried that there might be infection. She also prescribed me utrogestan to support the pregnancy and paracetamol for pain. She gave me 4 days of mc to rest. She commented sometimes it could be due to uterus expanding that caused the pain. She termed my case as a threatened miscarriage.

However I need a reassurance from someone experienced. I requested to see Dr Tan but for KKH, it is always difficult to see him if we do not have prior appointment. So we went to Dr Ang. He did an ultrasound for me and baby was fine. He commented that baby's position is a bit low but the placenta is not. The pain could also be due to muscles stretching. He did not check my cervix since KKH had done it for me. However from the ultrasound, he could see that the cervix is closed. Water bag is good. Womb is soft which is good because if it's hardened, contraction will kick in. What he doesn't want is the intermittent pain. He asked me to rest and monitor. If the pain doesn't come back after resting for a few days, then I can resume my normal activities. 

Lord, please continue to watch over our baby darling and protect her from any harm. Please continue to bless her to grow well, healthily, normally, strongly, steadily and safely everyday. In your most precious name, Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen!
