Childbirth has become surprisingly polarising in recent years — from natural birth to hospital birth to the growing trend of “freebirth”. Opinions can be strong, but at the heart of it all, most mothers simply want respect, clear communication, and a safe experience for both themselves and their baby.

In this article, Dr Tan Eng Loy explores why modern birth conversations feel so divided, how expectations can shape a mother’s experience, and why flexibility matters just as much as preparation.

Every birth is unique — and what matters most is that mothers feel supported, informed, and safe throughout their journey.

Childbirth today feels more divided than ever — with strong views on what’s “right”, “natural”, or “ideal”.
But most mothers simply want the same things: respect, choice, and safety.

This post explores why conversations about birth have become so polarising — from past experiences, to social media influences, to the desire for autonomy.
No matter the approach, every birth journey is personal, and every mother deserves support that feels safe and respectful.

Birth shouldn’t be about taking sides.
It should be about working together, communicating clearly, and helping families welcome their babies with confidence.

Recently, international headlines suggested that taking Tylenol / acetoaminophen (commonly known as Panadol or paracetamol in Singapore) during pregnancy may be linked to autism or ADHD in children. Understandably, many expectant mothers are worried. Let’s take a closer look at what the science ac...

📰 The headlines may sound alarming: “Panadol in pregnancy linked to autism”.
But here’s what you need to know ⬇️

🔍 Research shows an association, not proof of cause.
⚖️ The evidence remains inconclusive — many other factors are involved.
💊 Most importantly, women should not be denied pain relief or fever treatment when it’s appropriate.

👉 In Singapore, Panadol (paracetamol) is still considered one of the safest options during pregnancy — when used as directed and under medical advice.

✨ Don’t panic over headlines. Get the facts, and speak to your doctor for advice that’s right for you.

✨ A gentle reminder before the year ends: take care of you.

If you’ve been putting off that gynae check, now might be the time. Regular screenings like Pap smears, pelvic ultrasounds, and mammograms aren’t just routine — they help catch changes early, often before symptoms appear.

🧬 Pap smears can pick up pre-cancerous changes in the cervix, often years before they become dangerous.
🔍 Pelvic ultrasounds give a clear picture of the uterus and ovaries, helping detect cysts, fibroids, and other hidden issues.
🎗️ Mammograms can detect tiny breast lumps you may not even feel.

We’ve streamlined our screening packages to make it easier for women of all ages to stay on top of their health — whether you’re starting your first check-up, or due for an update.
