hi chloegal,
that's really nice of him.
hi shirley,
you might like to ask him the reason for c-section. Don't think he will insist on c-sec for no reason or risk involved.
I am currently having 2nd pregnancy and he warned that i will deliver early due to bleeding at earlier stage of pregnancy. I assume his prediction should be right base on experience.

Hi shirley,
You can ask Dr Han for the reasons. Maybe your pelvic bone is too small for the bb to make her way throught.
He might be helping you to save money. Cause if you choose natural delivery and if bb not able to come out and have to go for emergency c-section then your bill will be very very much higher.
I agree with Small Bell, dun think Dr Han will insist on c-section for no reasons caused he is is very Pro-natural. Most of us here are By natural delivery. My friends edd is in OCT and he told her that if everythings goes well will delivered by natural.

Congrates and how many weeks are you now?

hi chloegal,
thanks, in 30 weeks now. Glad to have him as gynae once again. He never seems to age, last time saw him was 4 yrs back. But he could have put on some weight though.
hi shirley,
hope your scan on sat will show baby progress.
I have not choosen bed type yet, still early. Last time i stay in single bed but think this time i will just take 4 beds. Now with the H1n1, visitors are limited to only 2 people per bed.
Any ladies here know what diaper brand and maternity pad (loop or normal ones) kk give now?

Hi Chloegal, oh yes, think u mentioned b4 tat u hv 3 kids. My #2 also born abt e same time as ur #3. And yes, he's also very naughty. u'know, he has 4 of those round round thingy on his head, u know wat i mean..., yes 4!! and everyone who's seen his head said he'll be very stubborn and naughty. Only one malay auntie told me he'll be very clever..haha...dun know whether to believe or not.
My girl has 2 on her head. She has her good and bad moments too. Some pple told me not to believe in all these old wives tales. Well, well...gotta keep my fingers cross..

Wow Shirley, 5 more weeks to go!! Ya, dun think too much and just let nature takes its course. If the pain comes, just go and deliver. Dr Han n the midwives all super steady one, just follow their instructions.
Both mine were induced cos i was past my edd. So, no worries. Enjoy the last few baby-free weeks!!

Hi Mummy Lee,
Wow.... your son got four, i never see kids that have so many. My sis's son got 2 and alot of ppl also tell her that too. But i think should be old wives tales. My gal also so naughty without the round round thingy thing.
Hi Daphne K,
I am not sure about VBAC cause all my delivery are by natural.

Hi hi Shirley!! I think its very typical of pregnant women to think a lot, especially if its the first child...i was like that too. Even now, i still think and worry a lot. Haha!! And thats after having 2 kids. Just different sets of problems la.
But let me say something here..its great that u want to try for a natural/normal delivery. However, i think u should be prepared for a c-section, in case it should become necessary. Being prepared both intellectually and emotionally for a c-section will help minimise any disappointment you may feel and make ur delivery experience a more positive one.
Honestly we can never really tell how the labour and delivery will go in the delivery ward. It may not be what we want/expect it to be BUT i think the most impt thing here is really not HOW the baby comes out but the safety of both the child and mummy. And the doc will usually advise u to e best of his knowledge. So, just be prepared mentally. Go with an open mind. Try ur best. And if, if i mean, u shld hv a c-section, its OK too. Dun be too hard up on urself. Dun be disappointed that u cant hv a normal delivery. U'll recover just as well. Just be very happy that ur baby has come into the world safely and enjoy motherhood thereafter ok.
With regard to breastfeeding, same thing, just try ur best. It'll not be easy, especially for first-time mums. Dun be too stressed, cos that might affect ur milk ss, just eat well, rest well, leave the chores to someone in the first month, get help fr ur hb as much as u can. Be a happy mummy and breastfeed as much as ur baby wants so as to build up ur milk ss. And dun ever say u dun hv enough milk for ur baby. We all have! Just try not to skip any pumping/direct feeding or start giving formula, u'll be just fine. But then again, if formula has to be given for whatever reasons, dun be too stressed too. Just try ur best ok.
Actually for myself, i only learnt all these when i had my second child. First one, i worried so much, die die must breastfeed till she landed in hospital cos of dehydratiion. Well, well tats another story...haha!
As for the wt, dun worry la. U'll lose them all after ur delivery. Exercise is great. So can do that when u r all well again. I know cos i put on abt 18kg for both my pregnancies.
So, good luck once again. No worries. Be a happy mummy-to-be, i know its easier said than done. But when u see ur baby, u'll know it's all worth it and nothing else matters.
Take care!!

Hi all!!
Shirley: CONGRATULATIONS to you!! Now tat ur little princess has arrived im sure u'll be very busy. But rest well, eat well and enjoy ur little bundle of joy
Flo: I also a few stubborn kg that refused to go haha. But my concern was my fats, especially my tummy and thighs. So, i took supplements to reduce my body fats, exercise and massage my tummy and thighs. As a result i lost those last few kg and some inches off my body.

Dear all,
I am looking for a gynae and read about your thread on Dr Han. Is Dr Han a man or woman? I saw some of you mentioned "he" and some said "she".
Is Dr Han really good? Is he/she kind and patient? I came across docs (esp female ones) who were impatient and lack empathy.
Thanks

Hi jsbaby,
Dr Han is a male gynae. As you have read from this thread, he is a nice and caring doctor. If you are considering doctors at kk, he would be a good recommendation. One plus point is that he has night clinic on certain days and goes to kk clinic at Ang Mo Kio. So the timing would be good if you are working or staying in the north area. Hope this helps.

Thanks Small Bell. I assume you gave birth or intend to give birth at KK. Can I ask if you have chosen the premier or classic package?
Dr Han sounds good. I also read that Dr John Tee from KK is also quite good....did you visit at least 2 gynaes before you decide on one? I am wondering if I should do that.
