I gave birth at NUH as a subsidised patient 9 years ago. Although my labour was 12 hrs long but it was a memorable one.
If I can remember well, my labour room was full of trainees & midwives like almost 4-5 of them altogether. Coincidentally, my husband's secondary school mate was 1 of them. She took really good care of me. I was so touched by the care they gave me, I wrote a review and note for them to say my heartfelt thanks.
The only part I hate is when they need to poke me for the drip as I am anemiac. Always hard to find my veins so they had to poke me a no. of times.
I needed no stitches. I will be giving birth again at NUH next year and hopefully it will also be a memorable one.
Personally I think, 1 bad experience does not mean you will always get a bad one cos as a subsidised patient you have many other trainees or midwives with you during labour so hopefully this time, you will have a good experience instead.
