Process at KKH during Labor (Sub patient)

Dear all, I'm currently 38 weeks and a subsidized route patient at KKH. I understand that unlike private patients, we do not have any more scans from detailed scan onwards. A fellow KKH-Sub mom also told me that we will not get our cervix checked at 38 weeks. I'm wondering if KKH will have a last ultrasound to determine baby's position when we are in labour? Or things like meconium, nuchal cords… I was told my baby is in Cephalic position during detailed scan, so was offered natural delivery, but that was so long ago. Wondering what if baby shifted? Everything seem like an unknown as if I'm opening a blindbox… #kkh

I delivered in kkh recently and as a private patient but I truly feel that the medical care does not differ during labour. All the nurses and midwives made me felt safe. It was the midwife that got me to push until my private doctor reach the hospital and then I did my last push. All was good. i stayed in A1 ward, other than you have all the privacy you need, I don’t quite see the difference between sub or private. Haha i think i will go for b1 and sub route for the next.
