Jenifur,
really ah? sigh..its really hard to make a decision leh...
its not very very old lah...but i visited a friend at TMC a mth back and TMC did look newer and nicer lor. So I was thinking, since paying abt same price, then why not take the newer facilities one? but then, i also know that the nurses at Mt. A are very good lor.

SSL: thanks for the tip on what to wear for antenatal class. i have actually prepared some tees and 3 quarter pants for the classes...hope the exercises are not to streneous loh...
kris: if i'm not wrong, Mt E actually promotes Similac...i'll probably try others...need to find out more from the supermarkets...

<font face="calisto mt"> MrsTan,
I was quite keen on TMC when I visited my frenz there last yr. There were full of praise of TMC. I'm pretty impressed w their single deluxe rm
. But later also hear ppl said Mt. A nurses r better so confused now loh.
HB thinks it's pretty common tt nurses r slightly abit rough as they r so used to handling BB. End of e day it's ok as long as they dun hurt e BB. He's sure e nurses know wat they r doing. </font>

Just called TMC abt antenatal class schedule. Didnt really like the lady who ans phone. Sounded a bit artificial in her tone of voice. But anyway, she said wkday classes are $168 and wkend classes are $189. wahh quite ex as compared to Mt. A leh. I think Mt. A is abt $128 or somethg.
Jenifur,
eh dont be too excited abt the tour. the peron told me tour will be for 45 mins, guess wat, it finished within 15 mins! they only showed us the delivery ward and a 2-bedded room (cos the single bedded one is occupied). I mean, since they holding tours, then shld arrange properly mah. end up, nothing to see. But they will give u a bag of some milk samples and hospital charges etc.

Sneaky: u are welcome
dont worry, the exercise are not streneous. cos some of them are to be done by your hubby, u just have to lie down or sit on the mattress and enjoy
Mrs Tan: I signed up for TMC's First Born Incentive (FBI) and as Manhattan credit card got promo, paid $98 for it.
I got 10% dist for booking the antenatal class. Also got 10% dist for the 5th month scan and some fetal assessment tests should it be required at TMC.
There will also be $80 off my ward charges for 2 bedded. Also got dist for Paedetrian consultation. You can call their Hotline at 63580055 to find out more on FBI benefits if you are keen.

<font face="Calisto mt"> MrsTan,

poshbb: ya my feet also swollen liao
esp at night
sneaky: Opps, i think remembered wrongly.
We have to pay $4 for the carpark, which is usually $5 by the time the class end. (so rebate only $1) sorry. Hubby will have to pay the teacher as well as "mark attendance" for their wife.
sneaky: Opps, i think remembered wrongly.
poshbb: My feet became permanently bigger after my first delivery!
Now all my shoes are one size bigger than before my first girl. Better switch to wearing something broader for comfort. Oh, and remember to take off your wedding band (if you wear it everyday without taking it off) cos if your fingers swell without your knowing it'll be a real pain taking them out! I had a colleague who had to go to the jeweller to get the ring cut off from her finger when she was pregnant!
SSL - you really got alot of lobang for discounts! I didn't even ask..
Poshbb-my feet swells too but not just at nite. IN fact i didn't realise until that day when I was at a fren's place and when I was going back, my slippers just felt so tight!!
MTB- i'm looking for a maternity swimsuit and want to know if you girls know where I can get a reasonably priced one? Thanks...

Girls,
Just a feedback from one of my gfs who gave birth at TMC 1 month ago:
1. Those who visited her told her that her single bedded room is by far the biggest as compared to other hospitals.
2. The food they offer is good too and they have confinement food as well.
3. Antenatal classes: must attend the one conducted by Mrs Wong cos she is well known in baby industry. A friend's friend attended both Mt. A and TMC antenatal classes and found the Mt. A to be boring and theoretical. Mrs Wong's class is more interesting.
So, wat do u think, girls?

Mrs Tan: I agree with your fren!
Although I didn't stay in the single-bedded room, I was quite happy with my double-bedded room. The nurses were all very friendly and understanding, and the confinement food was nice! Mrs Wong classes are also very fun and she always answers any queries you have! Most of the things we learnt from her were from our questioning.
poshbb, kris, my feet already started swelling when I was in 13th weeks... first time my feet was swelling for 4 days, no matter what I did, just can't go off...
Till now whenever i stand or walk too long, my feet will definitely swelling.
Fyi, when you sleep, you can get pillows or something to put your feet high high, it will solve the swelling problem when you wake up next day morning.
Mine is like tat lor, whole day swelling, then at nite i put my feet high high, next day the swelling is gone, then if i walk again, the swelling comes again...
Still got 5mths to go...

hi jenifur
actually i also have the detailed scan report - once i collected the report, i headed straight to my gynae to interpret the rpt to me. that's the procedure in Glen E. I noticed that my bb was 503g as indicated on the report. Just curious - how they know these things??
did the scan report measure how long your bb is from crown to rump? for mine, they said too long to measure tat way so they measure individual body parts separately... so now I have no idea how long bb is.
