Seeing that lady filling out her form at Dr. Chen's office reminded me the first day when we step into his office. It felt like it all just happened last month!
We arrived at 10am, our usual appointment time, and we waited a while before we got called-in. The same routine took place, and a few minutes later, Dr. Chen came in. As soon as he found out that our Due-Date is Nov. 1, he told us that he needs to do a physical examination. Dr. Chen told us that he would like Amy to deliver a few days before the Due-Date, up to a few days after the Due-Date. And a few days before the Due Date is actually like.. now! He explained to us that he's going to perform a physical examination to see if the Cervix is opened. If it is opened, he will perform a special procedure to make the contractions to come sooner.
As Dr. Chen was performing his examination, he told us that the Cervix is indeed opened. He then moved vigorously, with force, and in a few seconds, whatever he was doing down there was done! Looking from my angle, I thought he was going to pull Little Piggy straight out! Whatever he did, he looked like he was using a lot of strength/force.
Dr. Chen told us that the Baby should come in the next day or two. He also told us that there might be bleeding today, and there's is no need to be alarmed. There's no need to go to the hospital unless it doesn't stop, or if the bleeding is heavy. He also told us to continue with our 2-3 hour walk per day!
