Hi Zurayley & Zima, it's also my first pregnancy and I'm seeing Prof John Tee at KKH after reading all the positive reviews about him from fellow mommies. Although the hospital looks a bit ancient, I feel safe and had a good first impression of Prof Tee. Hopefully I'll stick to him throughout. My mom doesn't have a very good impression of KKH coz when she delivered me 30 over yrs ago, I was an assisted Breech case and her doctor went on holiday... I came out all purple... Almost suffocated and close to dying and I was her first child. Can u imagine how traumatized she was? Hahaha!
Hey Llynn & Reiann, our EDD seems very close! Mine is around 10 July.
Kodomo, in the meantime, you can buy those folic acid tablets (abt 5mg) from Guardian Pharmacy... Take once a day. Whole pack costs abt $2.00+ only.
Ladies, do post your baby pics once u have given birth ya? Exciting times!

Hi to all the July mummies!
My Edd is 8 July according to my previous obgyn visit. With a bit of anti vomiting medicine I'm feeling a little better than I was 3 weeks ago. Currently I'm seeing my obgyn at Gleneagles.
Hope everything will go smoothly for us and our jubilee babies!

Kokomi: doesn't the anti nausea meds make you feel super sleepy? I took one and only one and it made me groggy. The next night I had trouble sleeping.
Zima: KK is fine. My obgyn is at Gleneagles but that's the price to pay for private obgyn etc. But KK is honestly the place you want to be if something is wrong with your baby. That said, we live in Singapore lah, all hospitals are first world, and doctors are all generally highly experienced.
Llynn: I am also very confused about the Down syndrome test to take. Three years ago there was only Oscar test or the more invasive one. Now there's this panaromic test which is a simple blood test with very low false positive results but it's expensive -- $1300!!! Ahhh. So I'm really not sure. I didn't do any of these test for my first pregnancy... Only the 20 weeks detailed scan.

Hi reiann, I had a non-drowsy medication so I didn't feel sleepy upon taking it. However that was in the peak of my morning sickness so I was always tired anyway... Now at 10 weeks I still feel nausea but I don't run to the toilet multiple times a day anymore. So I don't rely as much on the medicine now.
Hi Zurayley, depending on the scans and medicine you need, I would say the cost of each visit is from $100? The advantages, of course, include short waiting time and detailed analysis by the private obgyn. The clinic is also comfortable and the nurses are attentive in my opinion. To my husband and I waiting time is very crucial so we opted for a private hospital. It's also great that somehow we can get a somewhat regular slot for each visit so far.

Hi All,
My mother is an experience confinement lady in Singapore & Malaysia & she is very experience. I'm saying that because i asked for her help twice when i gave birth of 2 little monsters of mine.
I've also received good comment from her employers for years.
Do contact me for more info if you are looking for one 98160846. I can let her speak to you as well. Or probably meet up cuz she is in Singapore now!
Cheers!

Hi Llynn,
This is my 2nd pregnancy. A surprise since we stop trying and want to have only 1. I am staying in the north east and I went back to my gynae at Toa Payoh
Well, GOD's gift is the most precious.
Mommies, how much weight have you all gain? Morning sickness seems to improve slightly little. But the tiredness and lethargicness still around. :/

Hello Mummies,
This will be my first time too. Excited! Plus nervous. Its my 10th week today. Just got to know abt pregnancy last week. Edd will be on the 11th July
Just wanna ask abt the hormonal pills that the doctor asked if I wanna take. I said its okay. Does everyone have to consume it? Right now, I am just taking folic acid

Hi Mummies!
This is my 1st pregnancy and I'm at 13 weeks now. During my 1st visit to the gynae, based on the length of the scan, baby is at 7 weeks. However, I am very sure baby was only 6 weeks based on 1st day of my last menstrual cycle ( I keep track of my menstrual dates cos of my job). On my 2nd appt, again the scan showed that baby is at 12 weeks although I think it should only be 11 weeks. So now my edd is on 7 Jul when I think it should be at 13 Jul. I guess it's no big deal, since only diff of 1 week, but I am just curious as to how this is possible. Any experienced mummies know why is this so? Hehehhe Thanks!
