Physicians
We are often asked about physicians experienced with multiples, so we took the opportunity of a questionnaire sent to all members in May 2004 to know which gynaecologists and paediatricians they recommend. We have since added some information about gynaes who are experienced in multiple natural births.
If you wish to read more about what our members say about their gynaes, simply ask us! (members only)The list below is non-exhaustive and based on personal experience. If your physician is not mentioned below when you think he is worth being shared with other members, please let Twins@TwinsPlusSing.com know!

Note: No mark on “premature babies” and “breastfeeding” does not necessarily means that the physician has no experience in this area, since not all respondents needed support.

Welcoming newborns, not least when there are 2 or more arriving at the same time, has its lot of challenges - the 2-hours feeds, trying to establish proper lactation for breastfeeding moms, lack of support, drop in hormon levels, etc- that is,when you don't already have to spend your days going back and forth to the NICU!
These are 2 supports we have been recommended in Singapore.
