Any Singaporean/Malaysian Moms group?

[Ai li]

Hi,

Great to hear the voices from all of you.

I am also a Malaysian, have been living in Singapore for 10 years. Just moved to HK 5 months ago. Had my baby girl here. She is 2 months old now.

Shall we all meet up at Central HK? I am free during weekday except Tue and Thursday afternoon.

hi Snowbird,
I had a great experience delivering in Union Hospital, and also a great OBGYN (Dr Alexander Yip) with a very reasonable price.

I paid only HK$450 per consultation including ultra sound scan. I heard some of doctor fee goes up to HK$1200 per visit!! If you like to have more info, please feel free to ask me or I can talk for non-stop about pregnancy during the coming gathering :-D

cheers,
Ai Li

Hi Snowbird,

Forgot to mention, I would highly recommend Bel-Air on the peak. It is very close to Pok Fu Lam. It has free shuttle bus that goes to Sheung wan (2 stations to Admiralty).

I regretted not choosing Bel-Air on the Peak but Mid-Levels

It is definately worth viewing the place before finalising your stay.

Hi Ladies,

How about meeting up next Wednesday (12 Nov 08) at Starbuck IFC (2nd floor) at 2pm?

Is the timing and venue OK for everyone? Look forward meeting all of you soon.

Hi all,

I've a 13months old and I am 4.5months pregnant and I leave in Pok Fu Lam.

We really like it in Pok Fu Lam. It's alot greener,lots a good schools ard and still very convenient to Central/Admirality. Perhaps you might consider Belcher's if you like a really children friendly place.

Love to meet up for coffee.

Hi all ladies,

I am a stay home mom with a 6 month old baby boy. I am from HK but my husband is Singaporean. I love Singaporean food and we visit Singapore very often throughout the year. And I also have a lot of friends from Singapore as well. Can I join you ladies?

I live in DB. Any moms from DB? I can meet anytime during the weekdays at Central as well.

Hope to meet up with you all.

hi

I am a singaporean too but I am due to deliver on 12 Nov 2008 so I can only meet you ladies in Dec 08 if its not too late

 

[snowbird]

hi everyone!

thanks for all the advise and info on the OBGYN - I will PM those with doctors' advise separately for the doctor's contact details.

yes, we will definitely take a look at DB although my husband seems to like CWB/ Sai Kung more (even though we haven't seen it!) but I like the sounds of Pokfulam ;-)

I hope you have a fun day on the 12th and if you guys are meeting up again end of November, I'd love to join in. Will be checking this thread often and looking forward to meeting you very soon

Cheers!

forgot to add that our insurance doesn't cover maternity - any idea what private cost would cost? I had my boy in Thompson with full insurance coverage at that time....... but it was still expensive as i had emergency c-section.

i was told Queen Mary Hospital in Pokfulam is Govt is highly recommended and many expats had good experience there. How does it work in HK Govt hospital? Would doctors like the ones recommended above deliver in QMH?

Thanks!
