as long as ur gynae haven book for u, can change. usually abt 2mths b4 u delivers, ur gynae will ask u which bed u wanna to take.

I delivered both my boys at TMC, in 2008 & recently in June. Both times I had very good experience with them. The nurses in the delivery suite were attentive & encouraging. I took the single bedded ward & my hubby stayed with me. The confinement meals served is really tasty! TMC is also pro breastfeeding, they will 1st enquire whether u are gg to breastfeed bb or not... In my case I told them i decided to do partial, meaning they will feed bb after I breastfeed if bb still seems hungry & they feed fm at night.

Haha yup their soups are fantastic! And yes I really like their many meals... Breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea break (nutritious soup), dinner & night snack (usually cake, sweet or savoury pastry).

I had a temporary upgrade from single to single duelux for my 2nd delivery. It was troublesome to move but oh well at least a senior nurse apologized about the inconvenience and even helped to move all our bags & stuff over after she had moved me.

Nope from deliver suite move into the duelux room for half a day before moving to single room. They were out of single room when I had delivered... Too bad they could not give me upgrade to the duelux room coz I think the price different is quite a lot.

Lol yes it is like class c wards but on both occasion there are no screaming mtb. You don't have to wait there very long, just for administration, prep shave & the solution to clear ur bowels & of course confirmation tt in labour then they will wheel u in to the delivery suite. The delivery suite is individual with a cost recliner for ur hubby to wait with u. There is also television if u are in the mood to watch.

That us for TMC, not sure if same for mt a
