should i stop work early?

Hello! I was a subsidised patient under KKH and managed to get HL from the doctor when I went for my routine check at 36 weeks. First I tried to request and she said that they can only issue if I was hospitalised. I broke down and explain to her what my job scope is like, also a childcare teacher, and I told her that I had to crawl just to set up pe equipment and still have to run and jump around with my huge tummy. She was nice enough to issue me one. Just try asking for HL, most doctors are nice enough to issue you one if they see a need. Otherwise like all the other mummies shared just take NPL since baby and you are the priority! Jia you!

Try to ask ur gynae for HL. If u're a private patient, higher chance of getting it (tho private hospitals are more lenient to give as compared to govt hospitals). I'm a teacher too, in pri sch. My gynae gave me HL frm 33rd wk onwards, partly due to my asthma too. So I only used my ML aft birth.

If you’re tired, pls do. Don’t feel bad about NPL. What’s more important is you and your baby. Can also consider HL if your gynae is ok issuing it to you. Take care! :)

if i were u...i just go for unpaid work, everybodys pregnancy i different. Your baby is more important.

I quit once I found out I'm pregnant. baby is more precious at this moment. you're not alone:)

Hi mommy, always listed to your body. if you get too tired and drained out, you need to rest.

if u have difficulty to work please take leave, be it HL NPL or whatever leave you have.

You can try asking for HL from your gynae to rest at home.
