Total Price: RM 3.1k

Maternity ward are current under reno, it shifted to level 8. a bit old but clean and well maintenance. is ok for me.
a good thing about Tungshin, is the hospital encourage breastfeeding.. it is important for the breastfeeding mum.
some hospital saying "they encourage breast feeding" but they did not do so...
my fren have an bad experience in Pantai Ipoh.. her child when back to hospital due to baby jaundice. they advised the hospital that her baby need to be breastfeed and human milk are provided to hospital. however, the nurse there offered a formula milk to her baby!!!

here is some pro breadfeeding services provided to me by Tungshin:
1) skin to skin contact. (this is very important as a 1st moment for breast feed)
2) more than 1/2 of the nurse in tungshin trained for breastfeeding.

Breast feeding is very important. Every hospital by right should encourage breastfeeding

I've been to assunta and tung shin. Assunta delivery team (not the doctor as I m totally natural with no epidural or induction) was great. Couldn't have it better tellin one to push and not wasting energy to scream. Which is important as one can just get lost in pain. The equipment was great too. Everything is efficient. laughing gas actually works. Delivery room is big with a couch for husband to rest while waiting. Important esp if it's your first as it took longer.
Tung shin equipment and nurses fell short. Laughing gas wasn't working. Only after third time when I asked for pethidine that the nurse released more gas. For first time r who didn't know what laughing gas like would be tough. Having to bear through the pain. Delivery room is so small. No chair for husband to sit. Almost like a bathroom size.
Also nurses and procedure are laughable. Food at tung shin is great exceed pantai or assunta.
As regards breast feeding I breast feed but I don't think it's that crucial if the first or second night one didn't breast feed.

Breast feeding need to be started ASAP. It would promotes bonding among the baby and the mother. In addition, it contains all the good stuff esp those early milk .. U dont want that to be wasted XD

would the early milk colostrum be lost if one doesn't breast feed the first couple of days? I don't think it drips out. in fact the doctor told me the first couple of days no milk, baby sucking to stimulate breast.
of course it's great to breast feed, but not if one just had cesarean.  my boy would be starving if relying on my breast milk the first month. it's only the second third month that my supply starts to be adequate. breast feeding is convenient relative to preparing milk every couple of hours. but rest is more important the first month.

I think its better to consult those maternity nurses for better advice. As far as I know, yes.. rest is important.. However, breast feeding is equally important. U need to stimulate sucking and the mother's mind to have a positive thinking that she would be able to provide sufficient milk for the baby. My friend who just had her first born have plenty supply by day 3. I know its tiring for the mothers out there. its a beautiful thing.. biggrin.gif
