Thanks lbs,
Yup, I'm pregnant...actually due in 6 1/2 wks time...=P I've been to the hospital for antenatal class, very cosy. Ya, I find her very cheerful and best thing is there's little waiting time but sometimes seems like she's too efficient and I feel my consultations are barely 5-10 mins! How abt yrs?

Ha ha .., that's my only complaint abt her too but if she spends tons of time with each patient then the queue will be really long. When I went for my hospital tour, one of the nurses mentioned that Dr heng is like the queen of Eastshore maternity coz she's got so many patients.
Kinda miss my visits with her since I gave birth 6 weeks back. had some extra visits after birth coz my cervix recovered too fast and closed too early and had to re-open my cervix twice to remove the blood clot and water. So sick ... thot the worst was over when I finally delivered.
Radiohead, since you'll be on epidural... you'll prob enjoy your delivery process. Went on natural and had the injection when I really buay ta-han. By the time I was re-considering epi, I was already 5cm dilated so nurse advised me not to waste $$ coz only 2-3 hours more. Seemed like the longest time to me but actually after taking the injection, dilated very fast... could push abt 1 - 1.5hours after that.

Hi absolut,
Wow, never knew she's the queen of Eastshore maternity...heh. Oh dear, hope you're feelg better now and enjoyg yr bb.
Anyway dec on epi coz my sis acted 'hero' 5 yrs ago when her boy was late and she had to be induced. Still she resisted hvg epi until last min when she can't tahan but by then they said too late so she ended up clawing her hubby. My hubby (then boyfriend) still rem tt incident n told me to take epi....=P So how was Dr Heng durg deliv? Hope I will rem what I learned during antenatal class and not panic!

Hi Radiohead
Even if you have contractions at the same time as your sis, it depends on who dilates faster and the nurses will call her once you're ready to push. The nurses and Dr Heng are really funny upon thinking back. When the contractions came, they were like a cheering squad encouraging you to push but once the contractions are over, they all turn and watch TV etc etc. My hubby was quite amused. After the birth process, Dr Heng can still joke with me and say ... so the next one you'll use epidural?? Well at least I didn't claw my hubby or yell at him during the process, just requested for an extra pillow and buried my head in it.
Dr Heng is still the same cheery person at delivery but she did threaten to use assisted delivery if I still didn't push properly coz she didn't want bb to be in the birth canal for too long. bb could have come out much faster but in the midst of the same, forgot that I had to breathe in and push immediately so I breathe in and out then push. In the end, bb went in more.
When I was in the delivery ward, there was another lady also under Dr Heng and she came in earlier than me but in the end, she delivered abt 2 hours after coz her baby was bigger.

I actually found her very insincere although she seems bubbly. She was rushing through my appt and I did not feel comfortable with her at all! She rushed to answer any doubts/qns I had and even got down to naming my baby which I found awfully rude! The waiting time was very long (over an hr) and I never went back to her again.

Though I'm not pregnant yet (still TTC), I've decided to see Dr Heng when I strike. You may read more abt her from another thread. There's this lady nickname Ibs, she juz delivered & her gynae was Dr Heng. She said the stitching skill is good & not painful. http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/cgi-bin/forumboard/show.cgi?tpc=36738&post=1058046#POST1058046

Hi Krissie,
Want to share too. Had Dr Heng as my gynae, I ended up having c-section, but didn't experience much pain too. I can come down from bed n walk on my own on the 2nd day. Friend told me she can only come down from bed after 5 days! My stitches were removed after a week. Definitely I would recommend Dr Heng too

Hi siewIng
No, I don't find her indecisive. Some gynaes won't allow you to eat during labor, but she told me she allows all her patients to eat as it will give them strength to push. She's quite accomdative to my preferences too.

You're welcome
Hi Siewlng,
I was with Dr Heng when I had my 1st baby. Felt that she's very experience. She's the queen of Eastshore because she delivered the most babies there. Through my visits with her are short, but if I have any queries, she will spend her time going through with me. I will def go back to her for my 2nd baby!

Hi!
I'm thinking of getting Dr Heng as my gynae as i stay in the East. Anyone knows if she is pro-natural?
Fsa, I've just taken a brochure from Dr Heng's clinic. Her package is $600, incl consultation, urine tests, ultrasound scans & vit . Normal delivery @ $1000, C-sec @ $2000

dr heng offer affordable rates for mummy to be.
BUT, she is quite unethical as a medical professional.
my personal encounter is she provide my personal particulars to infant formula company WITHOUT my consent. This is not allowed.
when i recieve the "direct promotional" call from this milk company, i'm quite sure she got my number somewhere. As i have not fill up any "Free MILK" promotional card before, neither did DR Heng Clinic's nurse gave me any card to fill up to ENJOY such promotion offered by MILK company.
I then managed to find out that, details was given out by Dr Heng's Clinic.
Trust between patient & doctor is very important, i wonder what other information is given out without my knowledge to 3rd party supplier which i may not be aware of.
such act is infringment of patient privacy.
i'm not sure how many mummy to be out there is aware about this. But i think we should put a stop to this.
After this incident, i stop visiting her!

Hi there,
I am with Dr Heng during my first and now the second pregenancy. To be honest, I feel she is really nice and not those that will make you worry unless she notice something unusual or something that you need to take note of.
Pertaining to the free milk thing... I sincerly believe there is some misunderstanding about it. As Dr Heng is not one who will even tell her patient or client what to purchase or what to use. She hardly recommend product.
In fact if you stay in East Shore, they do give out free milk to mothers who deliver there and if I didn't recall wrongly, they called me up for only after a few month after I deliver.
I believe there could be some mistunderstanding somewhere.
