Epidural at QEH..any feedback?

i think they do, i was given a sheet of "birth plan" of what pain relief to choose from - I'm only 12 weeks & hasn't even seen doctor yet, so hasn't filled that in yet, but i recall seeing epidural on it. I'm still dithering if i want to do QEH/private.

however, i also heard stories that in public hospitals that they have a quota on epidural for the day... better ask on your next doc's appointment.
 
I believe there is a quota. Try not to get to the hospital too late as the quota maybe over for the day. I know of a friend who didn't get one.
 
Oh thank you for your response much appreciated!:)

Just got discharge from the QEH was bleeding and found out i had polyps and they remove it right away. Thanks God my baby is safe! 😊
I'm on my 14th weeks now!:)
 
Hello poppyseed..😊

Yeah i signed for the antenatal.
Been with the preg early assessment screening because been spotting.

Just done with the down syndrome screening via ultrasound and blood test.
Also done with a group of blood test (5 types of bloodtest)

Be back for Anomaly scan soon and for another antenatal check-up.

How about you? Any plans?
 
hello summer, I tried signing for the antenatal but the system won't let me the other day, I thought maybe I'm too early and they only let ppl past 2nd trimester or something... I'll try again later tonight. Did you sign up online or through nurse?

My anomaly scan not till beginning of august and my first antenatal will be in a few weeks.. hope results are all okay.

I don't know anyone else that plans / consider QEH at all... most ladies are on HK side.. Do you know anyone else?
 
Hi poppyseed 😊

Here's my story why i got to QEH.

At 5th weeks got my confirmation of my pregnancy at public clinic and was immediately refer at the same day in Emergency of QEH because i was spotting with blood and they checked me right away (1st time saw the little life inside.:)

Then they refer me again to OB department of QEH for more test to make sure the baby is ok.

After that, they gave me a referral letter again for antenatal and for delivery booking. So got all my appointment with QEH in person via all those referral letter they gave me.

Then recently, i was admitted for 2 days coz been bleeding again.

Been a roller coaster ride for me, been hard for this past few weeks. But for sure it will all sooo worth it soon..

Actually, at first im so hesitate to go on public and its my first pregnancy and don't know anyone coz i just move here in hk few months ago.

Now, im really thinking and praying about epidural coz i really wanted to have it on my delivery.

Hopefully you can make on your next antenatal. 😊
