I'm in a similar situation as you. 36w and C+ first day on Tue 8th Feb. Wait for the moh to call you and you need to inform them that you're pregnant 34w. According to govt protocol 1, pregnant women 34 weeks and later should be warded for monitoring. My moh rep gave me a choice to continue home recovery or go to the hospital but I'd suggest if you're worried about your baby and want peace of mind plus if you have underlying medical issues, it's always best to go to the hospital. Plus when you're at the hospital, they will highly recommend you be warded for monitoring. My situation was my baby was still quite active though I had fever (38 deg), cough, flu, congested nose etc. I don't have any underlying medical problems or those related with pregnancy but i had some intermittent chest pain so felt best to check if the baby is alright. Moh arranged a non emergency ambulance to take me to sgh where I was monitored, took blood test and did ecg for the chest pain and it was all OK. Now I'm day 6 and still positive during my latest art though really fade positive line. Cause I was stable and chest pain was probably due to pregnancy, normal ecg, blood test, oxygen monitoring. So I'm gonna be enrolled in their virtual ward until I'm out of isolation or am negative. So ultimately whether you want to continue to do HR (though technically not the protocol) or be warded to monitor baby and any other covid related symptoms. Lmk if you want more info 😊

When I was being admitted, the admissions office didn't want to commit and said that it will be paid by me. Which was really confusing, as I called the hr buddy hotline and they said if you're a Singaporean and fully vaccinated, it will be covered. My suggestion is to prepare to pay but likely won't have to if its related to covid. My husband also sent me a bunch of articles on how the govt will pay for the hospital stay if its related to covid. When I was discharged, I didn't have to sign anything related to payment but maybe they'll send me the bill later?
