Can start when you're 35 weeks onwards. If you wanna play safe, just double check with gynae
Bring anything when discharge? What you mean? Your own change of clothes and for baby also lor.
If you wanna apply for your baby bonus and BC can do at hospital just that the fee is more ex.
If you ok with going down to immigration then it's cheaper.

Yeah better to bring your own clothes to wear during hospital stay. Bring those easy to wear and BF baby.
Anyone gg to do a playlist? I want to do but i don't know what songs to use during labour. Hahahaha.
Some serenity song from the piano or saxophone list? Just a suggestion

Baby bonus can do only at Baby Bonus One-Stop Centres - birth registration counter at hospitals or Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA)
http://www.babybonus.gov.sg/bbss/html/FormBB.pdf
Hospital are gleneagles, KK, Mt Alv, Mt E, NUH, parkway east, raffles, SGH AND TMC
Hospitals will charge you more I think $20-30 range (but it's more convenient lah I think?)
ICA is $18 fee.

Its smth like a long piece of cloth that wraps the around the belly protecting the baby's navel. so you wear it first, then wear the pants over so the rubber part of the pants wont "shake" or like poke the baby's navel.
smth like this (see the baby binder pic):

Yup I got one tummy binder at kiddy palace.. Thanks for the advice, ladies!
Re- hospital stay - I have friends staying only one night at kkh for normal birth. But for tmc it is 3 days 2 night. Really hope I can deliver over the weekend.. So weekday night routine will not be so disrupted.

@verine22 , it's a cloth with velcro tape to secure the tummy.
I like to dress my new born with 2pc. Top and bottom. Usually new born size is still too big for new born infant. So top will easily come out of the pants and baby look messy. I like baby to look neat and also wind won't get to blow on tummy.
Sorry if u still don't understand my explanation. Attached my baby pic for u to see. My #2 at 5 days old with tummy binder.

I'm also feel excited even though I don't know when my LO would like to due.. But probably this sun too if no further dilation on this sat check up. My gynae advised me to induce on sun or next week mon or tue. So I think I only left less than a week for me to relax. I do feel tired too but sometimes I don't really experience much pain on back or pelvis area.

@verine22 , in case I forget when's my last feed, how many ml/s or intervals. Cos can be forgetful during this period especially baby so new to me. Writing down also is easy for another care-giver to take over. I usually stop recording after confinement cos already get used to baby's pattern.
