Transfer to NUH

Hi, anyone has any experience with transfer of Govt hospitals from KKH to NUH? I’m 16 weeks now and thinking to transferring to NUH for a change of experience. I delivered at KKH for my firstborn and had post-delivery complications. Not sure if it it wise to transfer to NUH with my history of complication. Also, should I go back to Polyclinic and ask for referral to NUH or can I request for KKH to do the transfer for me?

U can ask kkh to transfer u to nuh. If there are medical records not on health hub then u may wish to request for a copy before u transfer.

2nd pregnancy announcement ideas

Hi Mummies and Daddies! Can you guys help to pour in ideas for 2nd pregnancy announcement ideas to family? I just entered 2nd trimester so I think it’s a good time to tell. I have a 15 month old daughter and have also bought the Big Sister tshirt. I am planning to tell my friends and relatives only when I am 6 months along. Ideas please, thanks in advance! ❤️🥰

I saw a covid friendly idea online! They sent out scratch cards to family, then they scratched it together on zoom. Then those who got it correct got a prize!

High BP and Protein in urine

Hi Parents, may I ask if anyone had high BP and protein in urine during their pregnancy? I’m in my 1st trimester (coming 11 weeks) and doc prescribed me with high BP and aspirin medication. I was diagnosed with pre-eclampsia post-delivery for my firstborn. I’m worried because whatever I eat becomes baby’s food which means all the medication will be ingested by baby, poor thing. 😣 Anyone has ever tried home remedies to manage your BP and protein in urine? #pleasehelp #advicepls

Pregnant again after 1 year post c-sect

Hi can I ask if anyone experienced the same? What should I avoid doing? Any tips? I just had my c-sect 13 months ago. Should be safe right? I’m worried. My first day of LMP was 11 Oct and I tested negative on 21 Nov. I tested again today (6 Dec) and got 2 BFPs.

Pregnant again after 1 year post c-sect

Dun worry.. u can check with ur gynae doc. It should be quite ok if there’s no complications during your 1st c-sect. As I have my 2nd c-sect same as yours 13 months later.

Breastmilk Storage

Hi Mummies, first time mom here.. pls pls pls share with me how do you keep your expressed breastmilk if you’re out for 12hrs with no access to freezer or fridge? I’m working in an office which do not have access to any of those and I’m using milk storage bags to pump out my breastmilk. I’ll leave house at 7-ish in the morning and be back home around 7-ish in the evening. And I need to pump 2 times at least in a 12-hr period if baby is not latching. Autumnz ice packs? V-cool ice bricks? A good cooler bag? Buy an ice maker and put in office? Buy a mini fridge? Help please, going back to work in March. 😭 #1stimemom #breastpump #breastmilkstorage #backtowork #milkstorage #milkstoragebag #milkstoragetips

If it's 12hrs,then it's better for you to buy mini fridge as it's always cold. Ice packs i don't think it will help for long term. So just put the breast milk there, then when you going home, use the ice packs to maintain it's temperature so you can put it back into the freezer later.

Is this diarrhea or normal?

Hello all, is this poop texture and colour normal or it’s diarrhea? It’s really runny and watery. My 1 month old started pooping only once a day a few days back and when she does, it’s a poonami and watery. She is on mixed feeding, currently 70-90ml of bottle-fed breastmilk (previously more direct latch but I googled about foremilk and hindmilk and baby drinks more foremilk and caused her gassy stomach) during day time and 60-90ml S26 formula throughout the night. Previously her stool was normal since she was born. And she used to poop a few times a day. Recently only once a day. Getting worried here. Could it be possible that it’s my breastmilk?? 😣 any advise would be much appreciated please!! Thank you in advance! 😭🙏🏻#1stimemom #firstbaby #advicepls #breasfeedingmom

Is this diarrhea or normal?

looks normal to me. NB poops a lot for the first 3-4mths. like literally in a day can go up to 8 diaper or more. sometimes instantly after every milk they poop. does your LO seems discomfort?? if your LO look normal and doesn't fuss, ntg to worry. FTM here too! i know how it feels and I always question myself and worries a lot. slowly I learnt to look at my LO reaction on top of the output. if baby continue to fuss after pooping and still wants to poop possible diarrhoea.

Feeding Schedule

Hi Mummies, Can you share with me your feeding schedule for EBM and Formula please, thank you. I am using S26 and trying my best to power pump every 3-4hrs. Please share with me some tips! Also, my breasts feel hard at the sides, even after I massage before every pump session. Is it clogged milk ducts?

my breasts used to have "hard areas" too.. u can try putting warm cloth on the hard area and massage in circular motion WHILE pumping. helps me. Good luck!

Mucus plug and contractions

Mummies I’ve been having on and off contractions since 8am and recently timing is between 6-7mins with 1min contraction each. Then timing stretched again between 6 to 36 mins interval.. Had a little bit of brownish stain on my pantyliner prior to the regular contractions, And then a tiny streak of light red mucus. When should I go hospital? I’m supposed to be induced tmr (19 Oct).
