Travelling from Malaysia to Singapore with 2 kids

I'm due to fly out to Malaysia in December with my 2 children. My mum and my younger brother will also be joining us.
My older brother and his family live there.

I will be 30 weeks pregnant. I really want to visit Singapore while I'm there. I really feel like I'll be able to do it but what do other people think who have been in a similar situation?

My other pregnancies have been great with no issues. Always been active in terms of being on my feet. The only time I slow down is when I've gone overdue 1 week +.

Just curious to know what others say about this.

Sounds totally doable.

It's totally feasible. Which part of Malaysia will you be at? Transport links between Malaysia and Singapore are numerous and great. You can drive yourself, hire a private car with driver, take a bus or plane. Make sure you have good insurance as healthcare fees in Singapore are very high for foreigners.

We will be staying in KL. I was thinking of flying over since it'll take an hour. And there are regular flights to and from Singapore.

Drive if you possibly can, dependant on location in Malaysia of course. And as for any issues with the pregnancy , as long as you’ve got good insurance you’ll be fine. In fact I’d rather be under medical care in Singapore than the UK tbh. Have fun it’s amazing!

@hahavzv Yes take a flight since you're in KL, they have flights every hour and they're cheap. Driving from KL would take about 4 to 5 hours and I forgot that can't be comfortable for a pregnant woman!

Oooh thank you for this! I was actually thinking of getting the inflatable foot rest. Has anyone used them for kids to sleep on?
