I delivered at NUH as well. I like the nurses there, they are attentive to your questions n very polite.

Hi moms, I had followed the confinement rules for 2 weeks. But my tolerance for the rules cannot hold that long anymore. Singapore is way too HOT! and I even drank sips of water even I had the longan red date tea & Milo. I even went to shower w/o herbs one day because my hair is so oily and...

Hi moms, I am a first time mom. i had been exclusively breastfeeding my baby since she was born. I was thinking how to give breast milk to my baby in public places. I'm super uncomfortable of giving breast milk to my baby even I have the nursing cover. Do I actually bring manual pump out...

I did try sexual intercourse to induce labor naturally from 37 weeks... But unfortunately, it is not working for me :(

Im currently 2cm dilated. So when I go for induction this monday most likely the gynae wont insert pill?? As a first time mom may I ask how the water bag is actually cut??? Kinda curious abt tht.

What I'm really worry about is the failed induction. Cause I always wanted a natural delivery, not a c section. And for induction, there might be a risk of having c section.. I worry my body does not respond to the medication and react the way I wanted.. T.T Yup, I opt for no epi labour too :)

Hi mums out there, Would like to know what normally gynae will do for induction and the procedure. My baby is overdue by 3 days.. So if she does not come out by Monday 10 March. I will be having an induction. Would like to know more about it :) Thank you.

Yeah, I also heard from my husband brother (he works at my school as a staff, so he heard from his pregnant colleague) there is private room for their staff known as the nursing room. But I do not know whether they open it to students or not.. will try asking the school management. Thank you for...

I actually got Unimom Forte package from Mothercare. Then it is able to switch to a manual pump. Haven try it yet..

I think it depends on the baby herself/himself. Thank you all ladies for sharing your advice and experience. It had definitely made me prepare in terms of the emotions and etc. :)

Hi hi @HYgirl Same here, mine is also a first time maid. I guess this is a must go thru process for having a maid. It seems like nothing that we can do but to only make up for the time when we're not around with the child. Hais.

Hi @marc jacob I did thought of putting my bb in infant care but it is way too expensive for me. Hence, no choice but to drop the idea. The maid will be taking care of my bb for 2 years. I had made it clear to her that once I'm home and on weekends, I will take care of my bb myself.. But when...

Thank you @broccoli for the wonderful advice. I had read before that but didnt know is it true. Cause I'm a first time mom. Thank you!! :)

Hi, This has been troubling me for quite a while and I think I would need to vent it out. I am currently 38 weeks pregnant and my baby can be deliver anytime, due to the fact that during April I would need to go back to school hence there will be no one (everyone in the family working) to...

Hi, emailed you
