Any MOE Teacher currently pregnant? Fellow colleague need advice…
Hi, any MOE teacher mommy here? I teach in a secondary school, and usually can only leave school at 4pm. I'm a FTM in my first trim and seeing gynae at KKH under subsidised route. I was given an appointment to do counselling for down syndrome tests and blood test next Monday at 12pm. However, as the appointment does not involve seeing a doctor, there won't be an MC issued. May I know what kind of leave do you take in such a situation? Since we don't have annual leave. My RO is aware of my pregnancy but she is not very happy when I leave early or when I am not in school. She is the kind where we need to report to school to Zoom in school even though we are attending a full day course. Cannot Zoom at home. For the previous appointment where I left early at 11am, she was very unhappy. So next appointment I took MC (first MC of the year), and she went on and on about how it's not a good idea again when she found out the MC was for gynae appointment. She even blamed me for not scheduling appointment after work or during weekends. But KKH does not have weekends or late appointments after 4pm. On top of that, I cannot request timing as this is a public hospital, I'm under subsidy and with the covid situation. Sigh. #1stimemom #pleasehelp #advicepls #pregnancy
