braxton hicks or?

hi mummies i'm a first time mum here currently 35w+ been feeling some pain and tightening at stomach area. is it braxton hicks? thank u

It could be braxton hicks. For symptoma of birth will be mild to intense contractions, mucus plug, waterbag leaking. If this is your first child, it may take awhile to get birth symptoms that early. Nevertheless, if there's any pain that's unbearable do go straight to labour and they will observe you.

Are we allowed to wear own clothes during our stay at the hospital?

Hello, mummies! I’m a subsidised patient at KKH. I’m just wondering if we are able to wear our own maternity clothes in the ward?

I think you can but you probably won’t want to…. I had the same thoughts as you, even brought my own PJs…. Ended up wearing the hospital gown thru out cause of the discharge and bloods. Don’t say the dirty part, I can’t be bothered about my clothings with the pain and lack of sleep. 😂 By the time you bring home and wash, the stains there already..

Is colostrum collector necessary?

Do we need to bring colostrum collector in our hsp bag or hsp will provide for free?

I think it depends on your hospital! My friend told me to bring breast pump so lactation consultant will coach you on how to use it and hospital will provide syringe for the colostrum!!
