Hi ilurve, I went for the hospital tour and a mummy in the group raised the question to the tour coordinator. She told us that if the 4 bedded is full on that day, the upgrade is not automatic. You will have the option to choose to top up to a 2 bedded (subject to availability) or 1 bedded...

Dear noriskarma, Thanks for the tip! Haha I will remember to HOLD on to the gas hahaha as me too like cyberie is scared...

Hi poohie, My gynae told me glucose test is only for some mummies with high risk of gestational diabetes so not everyone needs to go for one. Me didn't need to take one...I think normally when you are having twins or have family history or weight issues etc, then the risks are higher so they...

Hi audrerda, First of all, congrats! :) Like mer17, I chose the gynae rather than the hospital as I believe the hospitals here shouldn't differ too much in terms of standards. Hmmm don't think you can just do walk ins like that wor...probably need to research for one then call to make...

Hi Fredia, Not very attentive :) Just learnt a couple of tips from my uncle who is doing investigation work haha. Agree that brands might not be important but I dont't like the way they put up pictures of the branded products if they are not selling them. Will give mummies a wrong...

Hmmm I was hoping if my hubby hold on to me, I will feel calmer hahaha I was wondering if their observation rooms are for single use instead of shared among 4, do husbands have to leave the room? Keke anyway thanks for sharing!...guess there isn't any choice...

Hi Excited Mummy, Went to the website to check it out =) but it seems like some of the baby products are more expensive than Amazon (at least for those items that I have bought from Amazon before such as milk bottles). Also find it quite strange that they dont't reflect the brands of the...

Me too! Having a dragon baby girl end of this month....hahaha good to hear that there's a lot of baby girls! My friends are mainly having boys though :)

Hi all mummies, Thanks so much for all the info...I have been messaging friends too to check haha and they also confirmed that hubbies are not allowed to be around during the epi...think it is the case at least for TMC haiz haiz...now can only keep fingers crossed cos I am very scared of...

Hi Evaling, I think it is better not to...especially if you feel a cramp or pain while doing that...Better to be safe than sorry? :) although they say you can't squash your baby...if I still feel paranoid hehehe For me, like steffywoofy, I started 'practicising' sleeping on my side as soon as...

Hihi...for me, it was difficult to get quality sleep at night during the first trimester...would wake up every three hours...haiz...and couldn't fall asleep again after 5 am...could only try to catch up on my sleep during weekends. But it got better when I went on to the second tri...

Hi hayashi, Congrats on the arrival of your newborn! And thanks...yeap, I went to check with some friends too and they confirmed that husbands are not allowed in during epidural... Haiz...am scared that I can't hold still due to the pain because my threshold of pain is very low...

I am using the brand called Percutalfa. Saw it displayed on the counter at my gynae's so tout that it should be safe haha since she allowed it to be displayed. Started applying them after first trimester. Odourless but I am not sure if it will be effective. Dunno how to see if I have stretch...

Hihi, I bought mine at OG...it is somewhere near the swimwear / lingerie section..think it is around $20+. After I've bought them, I also saw some at Bukit Timah Plaza haha...there are a couple of those old shops (where they sell pails / mops / pyjamas etc)...price is cheaper (but quality at...

Hi shahshah, I used to have this colleague who went on 2 weeks leave before she was due as she wanted to rest at home and get ready. I recalled (few years back though) my company treated that as maternity leave. But am not too sure with MC though. Would you be able to clarify with your HR...

I will also be doing my own confinement...like felicity, not comfortable with stranger staying around and probably trust my mum and mother in law to take better care of the baby than the nanny. Will be ordering the confinement food though cos hubby said quite important to eat well during this...

Hi! Just wondering if there are any mummies out here who had given birth in Thomson before? Couple more weeks to my EDD and am feeling real scared! So would be good if anyone can share? I understand we will be placed in observation wards prior to delivery? Is that the place we will have our...

Hihi, I've also heard that it is not safe to have too many pillows near the baby when too young...I've seen friends letting their few months old babies sleep flat on their back but they will include a piece of folded cloth napkin (maybe for some padding). Alternatively, can get a very flat...

Hi cyberie, Thanks :) Yeap, I've heard about the Kaki Bukit megastores for baby products but have yet gone down because it is quite far (stay in the west). Will try to go down this weekend and see...

Hi elephant81, That's a tough question haha But for me, I chose the gynae that I wanted first, rather than the hospital and since she only delivers at Thomson, I chose Thomson. I guess the facilities for both hospitals should be on par as both are private hospitals. But Thomson is very...
