Butt-ache at week 10

Hi, I’m currently about 10weeks pregnant and this is my second pregnancy. Every time I sit on any type of chair (cushion or non cushion) I feel pain on my butt after a while. N I had to struggle to stand up. This is exactly what I experienced when I was in my 3rd trimester during the previous pregnancy. Is it normal that I experience such pain so early on in my pregnancy? Has anyone experienced this in first trimester too?

yes normal, uterus pressing on nerves near there

Experience at KKH Private vs Subsidized

Hi mummies/mummies to be, Was wondering if anyone took the KKH Antenatal Package (which also means private route with KKH)? If so, is it 1) at a separate clinic and check up route from the subsidised patients at Clinic C and AMC room? 2) during your appointments, is everything done in the doctor's room such as completing the consultation, urine dipstick, ultrasound etc? Meaning to say there's no multiple waiting times at different clinics/rooms for the various tests like subsidised. 3) what about Pharmacy? Is it also split from the subsidised route? Definitely was prioritising on cost savings at the start but had a very bad experience in waiting time and with 1 of the doctors today, hence considering to switch to private after next visit. Appreciate all feedback and advice! Thank you!!

i was a KKH private pat. 1) No it’s the same clinic and check up route. I understand it was separate many years ago but they combined it 2) urine dipstick done in check-in room with BP and height/weight. there is multiple waiting times at different rooms too, it’s like that for all public hospitals. stations are there for different purposes to ensure efficiency. doctor’s room only for ultrasound and consult. 3) pharmacy is combined as well Waiting time is due to peak hour appointments. If you are able to do off-peak hour appts like 8am, it’s definitely so much faster, that’s what i used to do. I trialed and error with different appt timings - late morning/afternoons are the worst. 8am appts are completed within 30-45mins, no queues at all.

Got border line iron level in second opinion

Hi Mommies I’m 32+4 weeks pregnant and experiencing lot of fatigue and severe frequent headaches My current OG said it’s normal and asked to take Panadol Also he said I’m not anaemic (iron level is fine ) It didn’t help much hence I went to other OG for second opinion n turns out my iron level (ferritin =29) n Vit B12 =157 is in border line New OG asking me to take supplements through IV but I’m scared if I should ask my old OG about the same and show him report of iron deficiency Is it ok to share this with old gynae or will it cause issue since he will be the one doing my delivery so would it offend him 😞?

you must share everything medical regardless. if your dr is aware, he can amend his own care plan and not give you one that affects your delivery. if he’s professional he won’t be offended.

Hi mummies. I'm week 6 and day 2 pregnant. Pero yesterday nagkaramdam ako ng matinding cramp at brown spotting. May naka experience po ba sa Inyo ng ganito? Normal po ba yon? I had my first miscarriage at ayoko mangayari ulit yon. Week 7 pa yung first appointment ko and now sobrang worried ako. Please any advice po.

First Pregnancy Symptoms

This is my first pregnancy and I just found out I am pregnant. I should be about 4 weeks. I have been experiencing cramps throughout the day for the past 2 days. Is this normal? It's bearable, my only concern is that I read it happens at infrequent timings whereas mine is pretty much all the time.

yes it’s normal

Any mummies staying in at the east deliver through subsidized at NUH? Especially those with more than 2 children at point of pregnancy. Is it manageable and worth it? Had so many bad experiences at KKH.
