First Scan in Taiwan

Again, I didn't sleep well at night. I just had around 2 hours sleep and I just couldn't sleep so I started to watch some Chinese episodes. I guess it's a stupid idea. Normally if I couldn't sleep in my bed, I would read a book and usually it could make me sleepy again. Anyway, I got up early for breakfast and then came back my room. I slept again late morning and felt better after the sleep. I then went to the hospital in the afternoon. It seems I need more sleep. I was sleepy when I was in the hospital and I nearly fell into sleep when I was sitting on the chair waiting for my brother having a shower.

I always think I need to go to hospital to see a doctor for having a baby and know more about the system in Taiwan. Also, I would like to have another scan to see the baby again. I decided to go seeing a doctor in the evening. It's strange for me to go myself while I saw all the other pregent women went to see a doctor with their partners. The doctor didn't ask me much and just asked me to go to a small room. I didn't know why I should go there waiting but once the nurse let me lie on the bed I know I'm going to have another scan. I was happy that I could see my baby again. It's' funny that baby was up side down this time. The doctor pointed to me his (We feel the baby is a he.) big head, his jumping heart and his spine. It's more clear than the last time I had my scan in Edinburgh. I can even see his five fingers. He raised one of his hand above his head. I don't know what he's doing. And he moved another hand and then put into his mouth. I suppose he is sucking his finger. It's cool for me to see baby is alright. The only thing not cool is that this time Richie is not here and he couldn't share all what I see with me.

After the scan, the doctor gave me a brochur about pregancy and arranged another appointment after one month. Then the nurse brought me to a lady and the lady told me all what I know about pregency so far. Then I had blood and urine test and the report will be delivered in the next appointment.

That's all for today. I'm sleepy now... zzZZZ Hopefully, I will sleep well tonight. :)
