My suggestion is to settle with your hosp of choice that is 1) close to where you live - we won't be sure you are going there with a company all of the time. so in case you need to go alone, it isnt a hassle for you. 2) where you feel secured and comfortable. pregnancy entails you more than a handful of OB visits so have a check on this as well. 3) budget - you are raising a human being later which incurs more $ to spend than your delivery and journey which means spend wisely on the latter. Just my 2 cents on what matters most :)

Congrats :) Do consider the time spent travelling to the hospital for your periodic checks, since you need to make frequent trips pre- and post-delivery. It's always good to check out a few hospitals before deciding.

Personally I will opted for TMC but in order for you to have a better comparison, you can find more information in the article as attached: https://sg.theasianparent.com/pregnancy_gynaecologists_and_hospitals-2

I actually consider distance and convenience before I select my Gynea package as advised by my family doctor. I went to visit various hospitals before I make a decision.

I actually opted for KKH. Maybe you can find more information in this article: https://sg.theasianparent.com/pregnancy_gynaecologists_and_hospitals-2/

I go with TMC cos more convenient. If you need a specialist, I'll suggest KKH. :)
