Brilliant, thanks a lot for your advice. Guess we'll have to go to Dubai - a bit of a nightmare with their 3 kids plus our 6-month old ;-)

Don't have the baby yet, but 9 nieces and nephews: my siblings have all washed the bottles with normal (unperfumed) dishwashing soap and then boiled the bottles 2-3 minutes in normal water.

I first went to Dr. Grace at the Dubai Mall clinic. The clinic is very nice, modern and efficient. I just didn't feel a connection with Dr. Grace. Upon recommendation from a friend, I then went to Dr. Sant at Primavera. She delivers at City Hospital. The clinic is not as posh, I've had to wait quite long each time - but still I much prefer the atmosphere there. Just had the NF scan last week, done by Dr. Julia; an extremely positive experience. I have BUPA insurance, but Primavera doesn't arrange direct billing, so we have to pay first and then get reimbursement. Also, Primavera is quite expensive. Still, I am happy with my choice

I got really frustrated trying to find washing powder and skin care products (for me during pregnancy and for baby) without perfume, parabens, formaldehyde, colours and other poison - in the end I brought everything from home (Denmark) last time I went. About 15 kgs of washing liquid and skin care - should last for a while ;)

Hi everyone, Our first baby is due first week of August. I'm with Dr. Sant at Primavera, had the double test last week and everything looks fine. I'm 41 years old, so a tad older than the average first-time pregnant woman ;) I live at the East coast, but heard so many good things of Dr. Sant that I choose to drive a bit further for my check-ups and consultations. Anyone else out there with due date in August?
