For me, it was a straightforward decision to place my firstborn in infant care as I found one with good infant educarers and principal. However, I'm also caught with the same situation now with my second one due in a few months' time. It would make more economic sense to get a helper who can...

Actually, you should terminate her service if you don't feel comfortable with her. I regretted not doing so for mine, ended up with mild depression cos she didn't follow instructions and even told tales to make me sound like an unreasonable employer

Sorry to hear about your experience but I would say 7 out of 10 CL are no good... I had my fair share of issues with my own CL though it was through recommendation and I definitely feel you.. I suffered from mild depression and almost went for ligation so as not to experience confinement ever...

Hi, You can check it out at their website... http://www.kkh.com.sg/services/women/maternityservices/Pages/Home.aspx If you are not considering KKH due to financial constrains you may want to consider MAH.. the price difference is less than $1k and the service level difference is worth more...

Hi all, I'm trying to decide between Nuby, Tommee Tippee or MAM milk bottles. All 3 suppose to allow baby not to have nipple confusion between breast and bottle. Anyone using these bottles and can share some reviews? I read online and the reviews are mixed, so can't really decide. Also...

Hi Vivian, I'm currently with Dr. Poon, decided not to switch as he follow up quite closely, which is good. He delivers at Mt. A, TMC and East Shore. As for Dr Phua, I have never been to see him, only knows he do deliver at Mt. A, not sure about other hospitals. T_T, $750 is before GST.

I'm not sure as the clinic assistant wasn't really willing to share the details since I haven't done the blood tests and still in 1st trimester. Will check the next visit. May change gynae if still can't get the package cos it is quite financial straining to spend $200+ per visit. Have...

Hi Vicvic & June, thanks for your sharing and advise. Will check out gynae soon.

Hi vicvic, Thanks for your advice. Is there a good time to start visiting the gynae?

Hi June, I personally see no point to go for test which suggest any probability of negativity. My sis had to worry unduly for months cos her son's head was quite big, gynae suspect Down syndrome. Also wish to find out the gender only upon birth. That's why intend to skip all...

Hi Mommies, Is there anyone who did not sign up for any antenatal package for your pregnancy? Not intending to do any scan (ultrasound, detailed and OSCAR), hence thinking does it make sense to sign up for antenatal package?

Thanks Jiayi for your sharing. Is Dr. Phua very pro-natural, or does he just respect your decision whether to go natural? Will you be delivering at TMC or Mt. Alvernia? Mind sharing the doctor fee Dr. Phua will charge for delivery as well? Thanks!

Thanks Chloe and Jiayi for your sharing. Dr. Poon charges $750 now. Am actually torn between Dr. Poon & Dr. Phua as both seem good, and pricing wise comparable.

Hi Mummies, Anyone currently seeing Dr. Phua Soo Mear (Kovan), and can share the package price and content? Tried calling to check but clinic assistant mention gotta go for 1st consultation and they will explain in details. Only shared that package starts from week 16. Would appreciate...

Hi Wishluck, thanks for sharing! Hope you are well now
