Kkh enquiry. #sendhelp

Hello mummies, first time mum to be here. To those who have give birth at kkh before, upon going there, are we allowed to bring personal bag & small cabin luggage during admission & inside the delivery suite? Do the delivery suite in kkh have space to store both of my bag? Or we need to pass to our spouse so they can help to bring to ward?

Any recommendation for birth delivery either KKH or NUH?

Currently I am with KKH subsided now 26 weeks. Hope can hear anyone past experience with KKH or NUH. So I can do the swap

Kkh doctors deliver the most babies among all hospital here in SG. Hence i believe they are the most experienced out of all obgyn here in my two cents. So every doctor there is good :)

Do any mummies feel sudden pain in the chest?

Heart pounding and sharp pain for a few seconds ? That makes you feel uncomfortable.

Oh yes, I've had this before too! That sudden sharp zap in the chest that comes and goes in seconds, very unsettling feeling! It could be so many things like stress, posture, or just tiredness from carrying the kids around all day. But since it's making you uncomfortable, I'd really encourage you to see a doctor soon, just to rule out anything, especially if it keeps happening or comes with breathlessness or dizziness lah. Better to get it checked and have peace of mind than to worry at home!

Manicure, pedicure

Is it alright to do gel manicure and gel pedicure during pregnancy?

Personally I still did my regular manicure/pedicure during pregnancy, but I tried not to do it too often. My gynae was generally okay with it, but I preferred places with good ventilation because of the chemical smell. For gel nails, I also tried to minimise unnecessary exposure to the chemicals and UV lamp used for curing. Probably okay once in a while, but I wouldn’t do it very frequently. If you’re concerned, maybe can ask the salon if they have gentler or pregnancy-friendly options. 😊 Best to check with your gynae too if you have any specific concerns!

NUH gynae recommendations

Hello! Currently looking to switch to private gynae in NUH? Anyone have any experience with Dr Karen Lim or Dr Sarah Li? Or with the other consultants or associate consultants?

I delivered at NUH and had a pretty good experience overall 😊 I don’t have experience with Dr Karen Lim personally, but my friend saw Dr Sarah Li and said she was very calm, reassuring and not pushy during consults. From what I heard, NUH private gynaes in general are quite solid especially if you prefer evidence-based and less “hard selling” vibes compared to some private clinics 😅 Maybe can see which doctor’s communication style suits you more!

Hello can anyone tell me if i can eat dried mango cause im craving💖👀

Craving for dry mango

VIP Member

Yes generally safe to eat during pregnancy. It’s a source of vitamin c, a, folate and fiber. If can eat try fresh first. But if really craving - go ahead with dehydrated mango during pregnancy. But be careful if you has GD cause of the high sugar intake. Keep to only 3-4 slices n choose brand with less added sugar or sulfites.
