Hey there, I had equally good experiences in TMC and NUH. Nurses were friendly and really helpful. I have to say though, just 2 things to note: 1) sometimes it’s the luck of the draw because hospital staff change with every shift so I think it’s good to help them help you by ensuring that your needs and requirements are communicated every time there’s a new team on shift. 2) note that government hospitals are teaching hospitals :) so if you’d prefer not to have student doctors visit and do sessions at your early labour, do communicate this to them too.
