Hi, yes, Dr Teoh is the anesthetian. Mine was a last minute call back for her so I supposed its more ex, $1350 (she arrived in 20min in the wee hours of the morning).
Hi, food was average. My current confinement lady definitely cooks much much better esp the fish and vege dishes. If your elders are strict on your confinement diet, they will definitely frown on some dishes eg. Cabbage, chicken and egg dishes for c sec mummies, type of fish served to you etc.
My second time in TMC so stay is fine for me, both times on level 5.
My all in bill, plus bb as well, is around $11k for premier single room price, three nights stay for c sec.
You can use your medisave to pay part of it cos cash outlay is about $5k plus.
Dun mention.Thanks for your info
Hi mummies, anyone start to buy diaper for new born? Saw some promotion going on, but don't know how many packet should buy.
Yea I have bought 1 packet of new born size. Never buy more as I don't know the brand suit my baby or not.Hi mummies, anyone start to buy diaper for new born? Saw some promotion going on, but don't know how many packet should buy.
Same here. Last one 7 yrs ago through csec and gynae said to do csec again.Hi my first was through emergency c 5 years ago n number 2 doc has advised me to do c section
Hi what did u put in the bag? Mine only has the cord life box, 1 set of baby and my gong home clothes, disposable undies and marriage cert.....like not much things horI've packed most of the stuff for hospital bag. I'm never a light traveller so the luggage also quite big heh.
My booked masseur charges 750 for 10 sessions. I doubt it's cheap-cheap but highly recommended so just take lor.
Lol looks like I'm a kiasu FTM. I followed almost this list. Some that hospital provides I don't pack.Hi what did u put in the bag? Mine only has the cord life box, 1 set of baby and my gong home clothes, disposable undies and marriage cert.....like not much things hor
Have done ctg twice coz of spotting issues
This list that I posted couple of days ago.Lol looks like I'm a kiasu FTM. I followed almost this list. Some that hospital provides I don't pack.
Gynae told me the CTG session will be 20mins. Will see if there's any distress to my bb.
TMC will give U a diaper bag full of goodies for your discharge. Inside have hand sanitizer, mamy poko & huggies diapers, set of lotion like nipple cream, bb lotion, bb wash & diaper cream. Also have wet wipes. U also will be give a bunny luggage with kimono slippers and some stuff inside. Hospital nursing wear provided. Bb clothes mittens also provided.
Can consider to take avcoda or beef to boost the weight.@Grateful2014 Thanks for the information
I just went for my gynae visit, and was told that my bb is considered small at 1.7kg at week 31. Anyone has any idea on what to increase bb's weight? fyi - i don't take durians so that option is out for me.
Think can tell from baby heartbeat ...coz they monitor the heart beat....Oh regarding ctg, I rem for my first 2, I only belted to it once at the gynae clinic on the last visit meaning only when I'm nearing to giving birth. I think this time round too.. The ctg is to measure contraction right? Dun think the ctg machine in gynae clinic so good till can measure whether bb in distress or not.
Forget to mention that my gynae did a 4D scan today but can't really see well. Must ask him to do one on my next visit as bb is bigger n the scan should be clearer..
Bunny so no need bring a set of baby going home clothes?
Looks like nothing much to bring besides contact lens, facial wash and moisturizer , marriage cert
Congrats bunny on your bundle of joy!I tell U I was so tired n pain till I never brush teeth never comb hair n never apply moisturiser. Haha but I do csect lah. Marriage cert unless U have babies name already n want to register immediately. If not TMC give two weeks to register for birth certificate. After that need to go ICA register. I was lucky I was given premier single room n paid single room price cos all full ;-)
Thanks grateful2014.Hi, based on my past experience, I didnt buy this time as I received some from hospital and some from the hampers people gave. Also, if your baby is at least 3.5kg, they will outgrow the NB size quite fast, especially if you buy brands like GOON.
Therefore, its advisable to buy along the way as your baby grows.
Hi Verluv,Juz came back from gynae checkup. Bb weighs 1.9 kg at week 34. Small but gynae not concerned coz my first 2 bb are small. Heard that drinking avocado milkshake will help on the weight of the bb. I have gained almost 10 kg liao so now not so willing to gain more leh. Next appt will be at week 36.. Think by then gynae will give me a more accurate date of birth.. Should be ard 37 weeks or so..
Now officially started my hl n resting at home. Today is the first day so dun feel like doing anything except resting n lazing at home!!
Hosp bag- I think I will pack the following:
1. Going home clothes
2. My wallet-should contain ic n some coins n credit card for the bill
3. Hp charger
4. Breast pad
5. Contact lens + well n spectacles
Can't think of any liao.. For maternity pad, disposable panties, pyjamas all will be provided by hospital.
For bb stuff like their clothes, mitten, swaddle, diaper, all provided by tmc too.. Seriously can't think of any liao.
Better dun bring too many things else on day of discharge might need to lug a lot of things n carry bb. Furthermore I remember tmc giving out a luggage filled with things for 2016 bb.
@redvel yea I did CTG before as I don't feel my baby movement on that day so my gynae ask me to do CTG, just lay down on the bed with a belt attach and it will monitor baby heart beat and kicking. Mine is 45mins
