Delivery at KKH - mandatory room-in and breastfeeding?

Hi, if anyone has delivered recently at KKH in 2022, can you please share the following? 1) Is the baby room-in policy enforced 24/7 and compulsory, or is it optional and parents can opt to have baby stay in nursery, and brought in every 2-3 hours for periodic visits. 2) Due to work reasons as well as previously poor experiences with breastfeeding (this upcoming delivery will be my third child), I will be opting to go with formula right from the start. Is KKH be supportive of mothers’ choice or will strictly enforce breastfeeding policies?

1) it’s enforced, not sure if you can opt out 2) very strict on breastfeeding unfortunately.. unless you bring in your own formula
