Is it normal to feel fatigue and sleepy during 20 weeks pregnant?

Is it temporary?#advicepls

It is just normal. Soon will be better. It is just hormonal changes in the body hence some mummy gets easily and fatigue.

Discuss your baby delivery?

How do you know you are about to give birth when you are at home and how do you reach the hospital in time without panicking?#firsttimemom

Never get to experience all of it for both pregnancy 🤣 But from sharing experience of friends and family, once waterbag leak, they wash up with warm water, put on pad then change up and head to hospital. Having said that they will monitor the contractions watch for other birth signs like mucus plug, colour of water bag if brownish, pink, white. Reach hospital straight to labour, inform nurse/dr what they are experiencing. Dont panic, the more you panic, your mind cant think, body and mind dont react well. Either you will be more painful, or you pespire or baby gets stress.

Which brand of formula milk for newborn did you use ?

Share your insights

My friends recommend NatureOne Dairy for cow milk powder. It’s what I would use when my LO comes too. I’m considering Karihome Goat as goat milk powder alternative though. Not sure if other mums have experience with these brands.

When you give birth , does the hospital provide towels, blankets and clothes for the baby?

How many mum and baby clothes to bring to the hospital if having C sect? #firsttimemom #advicepls

For NUH and KKH, they provide just swaddle and top for baby, since they dont bath and only wipe down. For mummy they provide gown and towel. When you are heading back home, you bring your own clothes as well as baby's.

Hi! Does Private NUH give any of you HL before EDD?

Usually they would as EDD is based on full term 40 weeks, but some are willing to give 38 weeks onwards. You may clarify this with your gynae :)
