Is it guaranteed to get a ward A room for a private patient after giving birth? #advicepls #firstbaby #1stpreganancy

As far as I correctly remember you can choose Ward A1 with single bed or B1 for 4 bedders. While the rest will all be subsidize patient ward.

18 weeks with no appetite

I'm currently at 18 weeks so i'm at my 2nd trimester. They say normally you will have a huge appetite by 2nd trimester but lately I haven't been able to eat well. Is it normal? I will normally just drink and snack abit. Can't seem to have the appetite to eat anything. I can't even consume meat, fish and chicken as it just makes me wanna vomit. Any suggestion mummies? I am just worried if my baby won't get enough nutritions :( #advicepls #firstbaby #firstmom #1stpreganancy

You can have like yogurt, bread, biscuits, materna milk to have nutrients even if you dont consume meat, fish or chicken. You can also have your favourite food to fill your tummy as long as you dont skip meals.

Anyone have cervical length issue before?

Im coming to 22 weeks. But i have cervical length issue which is 0.7cm now. Doctor told me about the cervical stitch but there will be a risk where if they accidentally burst my waterbag and my baby will be really born premature which they didnt practice to revive or try to make the baby survive at this early stage. What should i do? Is there anything i can do to prevent my baby to be born during this period atleast till my baby reach 24 weeks? Im not sure if this happen to me during my first born as i found out that im pregnant when my pregnancy that time already 6 mths which doctor said they wont check on the cervical length after that month and i have my waterbag broke early but i am able to hold it till it is 32weeks. Due to my first pregnancy was prematured that is why this time pregnancy doctor have been checking on my cervical length. What should i do? Im so worried.

Have a look at this article and ask your doctor if this options is possible as well as what can be done to decrease the risk of premature baby and increase your cervic length. https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/pregnancy-week-by-week/expert-answers/cervical-length/faq-20058357

Can any mummies share with me your natural birth experience? The pain is bearable?

With epidural and laughing gas, my birth experience was painless. (Induced labour with vacuum assisted) The only painful part was the contractions. If you can’t take it, just go for the gas then request epidural.

Shared parent leave

Need some advice. Husband is only eligible for paternity leave if he has worked for 3 months before baby (Singaporean) is born? How about shared parent leave? Can the wife still share the remaining maternity leave (1-4wks) with husband after he starts his new job (after baby is born)? Not sure how long it will take to find a new job #advicepls

You can look up at this two website for reference : https://www.mom.gov.sg/employment-practices/leave/shared-parental-leave https://www.profamilyleave.msf.gov.sg/schemes/paternity-leave
