Hi cocomo
For both my kids (5, 3) we've got a hospitalisation and a personal accident plan. So far we have (unfortunately) had to make claims. Once when my daughter had fits, it was just excruciating to see her in that state and also heartbreaking if we hadn't bought insurance, then we would have put her in a 6 bedded ward to save money. But cos we did have insurance, she stayed in a single room and we could spend the night with her comfortably. My son, fell off a chair and was bledding from his nose, so we also sent him to for an Xray and check up. All these were claimable. My worries are largely, if they have a high fever and need to be hospitalised. So that's why i got insurance.
Btw, I am of the mummies due end-aug....its excruciating waiting for the birth, at my last check-up at 33 wks, baby is weighing 2.8kg???

Linda,
Ya I was adviced by my cousin that to buy hospitalisation insurance is pretty important coz her boy was hospitalised when he was only 2-3 months due to high fever. Medishield usually can only cover up to certain amount of medical bill. How much you paid for your kids' insurance annually and bought from which insurance company? I heard shd be couple of hundred only right?
Do you intent to sign up for CORDBLOOD storage? I have just signed up for my son's cordblood storage with Cordlife. First year processing fee + testing fee etc cost abt $1400 and subsequent annual fee just around $250. The cordblood can actually use for 71 deseases and it's 100% match for the kid and 75% for peers, 50% for parents. Anyone interested can call them and arrange for a lap tour.

Chrys,
Thanks for the post. The reason I chose Cordlife coz I think they are better as their laboratory in Singapore is the first and only AABB (American Association of Blood Bank) accredited facility in Southeast Asia and also they are a division of CyGenics, an Australian-listed biotechnology and immunotherapy Company. Think more recognise and importantly more stable than other cordbank.
Leobbsmom,
Thanks for the shield plans comparison table.

Hi chrys,
Foe stemcord, it is not necessary to go the roadshow. You can call up the person in charge- Lynn. She can meet you and explain to you everything. Lynn told me that ACJ clinic is in their promotion whereby gynae dun charge for the fees or something. You can call her up to find out more info. You can get the brochure at the front counter at the clinic.

hi chrys,
wanli also sms-ed me. i didnt check wif her again cos i just sent my son 4 his 2nd review on his jaundice.
cocomo,
i've bought Aviva Myshield Plan 1 for e family & my 1st son. Will add in my 2nd son when he turns 1mth old. This is payable by CPF Medisave.
I bought a AXA hospitalisation plan for the family too. This is payable by cash mthly. This plan helps 2 cover the deductible & co-ins portion which needs 2 b paid by cash.
I also getting a Personal Accident Plan 4 kids. The one I'm looking at is fr NTUC. This plan is more 4 me 2 claim 4 personal accidents incurred by my kids. My frien has tis plan 4 her kids n everytime her kid fell down, hurt himself somehow, she'll throw e claim 2 NTUC.
Hope tis helps. My husband & i are in the insurance industry so we are VERY careful abt choosing the right hospitalisation/medical plans. We dun want to end up paying a lot for such premiums which we cant get back $$ in e end (unlike life ins or endowment plans). Now tat I hv kids, really cant play play. I came across a GF who didnt buy n her daughter went 2 hospital due 2 intestinal problem. The bill was abt >$10K cash.

Dino,
Why need charges from gynae? What's that for? Can she come to our home to explain the details to us? Normally after checkup hb needs to rush to work, so can't meet her at ACJ clinic. Roadshow at Suntec quite convenient as hb's office is there, quite near our home too.
Augbaby,
Ya, bcos i almost finish up my current raspberry leave from Yogi Tea. They are individually packed. How to make into drinks if in whole big packet? scoop some by estimation?
Kelly,
How's Edwards's jaundice? Did he go for the photo treatment?
Which insurance is the best for kids? hehe.. me not familiar with this.

Hi Chrys
Ya there r instructions on the packaging. It says to put 1 or 2 teaspoon of tea leaf into a mug, pour freshly boiled water, cover and steep for 15mins..Or if u have a mesh ball that can be found in Ikea, then put the leaf into the mesh ball n steep in the water lor..

Insurance - My insurance cost less than $200/yr for hospitalisation and $100+ for accident plan. Its from AIA - pink of health or something like that, even for accident plan, there is now a component for going to chinese drs as well. If u are interestd pm me for my insurance agent, he's a really nice guy, tells me hilarious stories of accident claims - like a guy who accidently hurt his ear drum while digging his ear....Buy it early, and it gives us peace of mind...you can only buy 30 days after baby's birth.
Cord Blood - I wanted to, but my husband is pretty skeptical and we couldn't bear to pay the costs involved. So I am donating to the public cordblood bank at KK.
Erin00 - I asked Dr Wong at my last visit what was the weight. If we weren't in the private suite, at our 8 mth we would hv been sent for another detailed scan (pay extra), where baby's weight is estimated and water level checked. The baby's weight is a guesstimate from the width or circumference of bb's abdomen. Yes, 2.8kg (+-10%) is rather big. And its terribly tiring. I hv no special diet. In fact, I don't take milk at all, suddenly turn lactose intolerant during pregnancies. 3 meals, with no snacks.

if i not wrong, ur AIA pink of health is a HOSPITAL CASH plan. it gives u cash based on ur medical bill. it DONT cover ur medical bill right?
INSURANCE - a brief note abt it...
when u buy approved medical plans fr CPF, there's a co-insurance & deductible element which u need 2 use CASH 2 pay. u cant use ur CPF Medisave 4 it.
Imagine ur medical bill being $10K (a very simplified illustration - not subjected to the limits), if the deductible is $3K and e co-insurance is 10%, it means u need 2 pay $3700 cash ($700 is fr 10% of the remaining $7K).
If u get a comprehensive hospitalisation plan, these $3700 MAY b taken care of by the plan (depending on which type of plan u get). A hospital cash plan WONT cover this $3700 bcos of the low payouts.
Personal Accident Plans (PAL) - there r various types for tis. I personally find NTUC/AIA PAL for kids the betta ones.
cocomo, chrys
i forget 2 mention tat my AXA H&S (hospitalisation & surgical) plan costs abt $90/mth 4 the whole family. it's abt $1100 pa.

Hi kelly,
I am impressed by your insurance plans! like cover a lot of loopholes that each insurance you bot that is not covering... Can I call you up and chat with you on more details? When can we 1st buy for our baby after he/she is born? It does not take effect immendiately right?
Is it a lot to pay for the Aviva Myshield Plan 1 for e family & the kid?
What types of accidents does the Personal Accident Plan 4 kids cover? need to pay a lot for premiums?

Hi Rain,
Yeah, for my company (stat board) 3 months maternity leave means 12 weeks = 84 days (including saturdays and sundays!!)
I can choose to take 3 months at one go or 2 months + 1 month.
2 months = 8 weeks = 56 days and another 1 month sparingly (not 28 days, but only 20 working days)

hi white lady,
i think so. cos after drinking enfamama for 2 wks, my baby puts on 600g and is of normal size again.
hi piyo,
it starts from the right side (lower back all the way to calf). especially painful at hip and thigh. the thigh area seems so stiff and the knees like cannot support my weight like that.
thanks. u take care too. let's jai you together

How's edward doing? I saw u mentioned Ed's jaundice level was 13.2 and if hit 15 need to be hospitalised rite, but Dr T Tan said he wunt insist on hospitalisation when Reanne's j.level was at 16 leh? Y so contradicting hor? The last time Reanne had the blood test, the level dropped to abt 12, then he said no need to go back for the test anymore, now i look at Reanne, she seemed to still look yellow leh, we quite worried, dunno ok anot?

Pupsandcups,
Your diet sounds like mine and I also gained about 10 kg so far. Don't look pregnant from my back cos only the tummy is expanding. However, my baby is quite small at the moment so I'm gonna indulge for a while, hoping to gain more weight.
Piyo,
Your case sounded like mine. Scary right? The thought of giving birth when the time is not ripe.
Were you hospitalised then? Still on medication? Why did the doc give you only two-day mc. I am given 21-day hospital leave!
Btw, don't worry too much...just rest and relax. My leave is ending soon and yet no sign of popping. Now getting impatient.
Pls take care of yourself. Doc said bedrest means total lying on bed. No housework, no shopping...
