JOURNEY 6 : 35weeks Pregnancy at UMSC

Hi All, 

During 35 weeks pregnancy, we went for a visit at UMSC. Prof Siti seems happy with the baby size and sees there is no urgency to deliver the baby at this point of time. 

However, we were asked to be admitted at 36weeks for monitoring and early delivery. 

Since the baby will be delivered early, the plan is to inject DEXA. Main objective is to make sure the baby's lung is matured enough once the baby is delivered. 

Glucose Reading Spike
The plan to inject Dexa had causing our Endo team worry. Based on their advise, Dexa injection would cause the glucose reading to go really high. Therefore, strict monitoring shall be done during the exercise. 

Our Endo Hospital Putrajaya team then wrote a referral letter to UMSC and UMMC Endo team for next course of action. We were referred to PROF. DR. SHIREENE RATNA. She is really good and motherly as well. 

Admitted at 36weeks
On 36weeks, my wife was admitted for Dexa injection and prepare for early delivery. Instead of being admitted to UMSC, she was admitted at PPUM (UMMC). The reason being is because Prof Siti would her team to closely monitor her. 

On the 3rd day of admission, she was brought to another scan done by one of the consultant. The Prof recommended there is no urgency for early delivery. 

Discharge from UMMC
Since we have got a new recommendation, Prof Siti came by and advise my wife to return home and wait until 38weeks.

JOURNEY 5 : UMSC Prof Datuk Dr Siti Zawiah Omar

Hi All, 

Since we had "not so good" experience with FPP Hospital Putrajaya, we have then decided to look for other possible option. 

We googled multiples hospitals and found out one of the best specialist / consultant / Doctor who can manage High Risk Pregnancy is Prof Datuk Dr Siti Zawiah Omar from Universiti Malaya Specialist Centre.

Visit her Profile here: https://umsc.my/?umsc_doctor=siti-zawiah-omar

She is very motherly, indeed. 

We first met her back in 2018 when we lost our first. We sought for treatment and opinion to plan for our next pregnancy.  

30weeks
We managed to see her after 32weeks, that was after we were released from FPP Hospital Putrajaya. 

When we met her, one of our first question was whether she could accept my wife or not. And SHE SAID YES!

We were so happy that time and since them we follow up both at Hospital Putrajaya (Public Clinic) and UMSC under Prof Siti Zawiah. 

34weeks
At 34weeks, we went for visit at Hospital Putrajaya public clinic. The doctor scan the baby and found the size is slightly big at 3.4kg. Therefore, they advise us to be admitted immediately for monitoring and early delivery. 

We then inform the Doctor that we would like to deliver at UMSC, and a referral was given. We immediately consulted with Prof Siti and was advised to only see her the following week.
