Baby Girl Circumcision

Hi mummies! Any recommendations for clinics that is still doing Circumcisions for baby girls? Preferably in the North region. And I heard it’s best to do it when baby girl is 3 months and above? Thank you in advance mummies!

If west area at clementi, neptune clinic. Yup 3 months. For this clinic, they only accept 3 months not above.

Red Date Tea during Confinement after Gestational Diabetes

I have GDM during pregnancy. It should go away after birth but dietician says should still keep healthy diet to minimize future T2DM. But mum says confinement can only drink red date/longan tea and not plain water. Any similar experience and advice?

Week 35 fetal weight?

Hi mummies, could you share what is your baby's weight at Week 35? My baby is 2.45kg at Week 35 Day 3. My gynae says the baby's weight is within range.

Mine was 2.5kg and gynae said it was average too

Drinking water during confinement

I heard that we can only drink red date tea during confinement and not to drink a single sip of water. Is it true? Whats the rationale ?

Warm water is fine, in fact drinking more water can help with milk supply. It’s said that drinking water can cause water retention but it’s not true. I drank almost 3-4L min per day because I’m bf and I didn’t have any water retention. I still take red dates tea during meals.

Inactive baby, is it normal?

I am 37 week 4day pregnant , do babies get less active around this period? I can barely feel his movement throughout the days , took out the Doppler and could detect heartbeat. Is it something I should be worried about ?

Never use a doppler without professional. Sometimes you may be detecting your own heartbeat instead of baby's. Baby don't get less active as you approach EDD. Please go to the hospital and get them to monitor fetal movement and heart beat. Better be safe than sorry mummy ❤️❤️

38 weeks + 4 days

Hi! First time mom here, there are still no signs of labour for me , I’m scared that I might continue on to 41 weeks and if asked to induce labour. Any advise. I still prefer natural birth

take walks and bouncing on gym balls might help!

How much is too much for red dates water after delivery?

My CL was expecting to drink red dates water throught the day. Which technically I drank about 3L / day. With minimal plain water intake. Is it normal? 🙏

Hi mummies! Does the quality of baby clothes matter? Some baby clothing can go up to $60 for two pieces and there are others that are more affordable. Does it really matter?

If baby doesn’t have sensitive skin or skin conditions, normal clothings is fine too. My LO has a lot of $1+ clothings that I got from live streams (mostly cotton) 😊. They outgrow too quickly so I won’t spend too much on their clothings/shoes now.

Induce in Thomson medical TMC

Hi any mummies here has done induction at TMC? Was told by my gynae that she will schedule induction for me as my water level is low. I just want to check do they do the induction in the observation ward and I have to stay there until I’m in labour then move to delivery ward? I’m 0cm dilated so it will take 1 or 2 days to dilate fully. I am wondering will they charge me by the room rates that I will be choosing or the observation/delivery ward rate? I only thought of this after I left the clinic so would like to know more before my scheduled date. Thank you!!!

For mine, induction process done in labour ward then wheeled to delivery ward for epidural and labour. Everything will be charged (even the hand sanitizer in your room, underpads used in labour wards etc etc). Using of equipments at whichever ward your staying room.
