Thanks Maxine, Sorry to hear you are having such a difficult 3rd trimester. Great to hear how happy you are with Dr Yamini though....is she quite keen on natural birth or is that not an option in your circumstances?

Thanks Beebers, for some reason I was convinced they were only about Dhs 90 so when they wanted Dhs 180 in the Springs I refused! Oopsie!!

Still loving mine too....doing pretty much the same as jcdubai, it has now been about 6 months and I am so happy with the results. How much are you paying for the phyto tablets jc? Went to buy a new bottle at the Springs Town Centre Pharmacy and am sure they were twice the usual price?? Maybe am just being forgetful though....

Thanks for your reply to me SC...don't know if this helps but I just saw a dentist for first time in 4 years (am petrified) and she was lovely... Dr Abdulla at EHL Meadows clinic. Very pleased with my sparkly teeth!! Was pleasantly surprised as am not so keen on the other EHL staff!!

Not this time for me :( HCG levels had halved today so that means a miscarriage/ chemical pregnancy. Staying positive that we will get to meet the next one! Thanks for your replies x

Hi there, not my turn to worry about this just yet but wondering why you are asking "will it be ok at Medcare?" have you heard truly horrific stories?? Planning (dreaming) far ahead, I am thinking of Medcare because of it's proximity too....

Just thought I would give you an update after seeing the ob/gyn today. They couldn't see a gestational sac or anything at all on either vaginal or abdominal ultrasound, dr assumes miscarriage and that the only reason I tested positive was remnants of pregnancy. Took blood to be sure. Came home feeling so upset, took to google and found lots of posts of people not seeing anything on scans til about 6-7 weeks and so started feeling positive again! Got the results from blood as positive with hcg level of 227 which according to a chart I found puts me at about 4 weeks. Now have to wait until Saturday for next blood test which will be the real truth teller....if levels are higher we are looking good, if not it's a miscarriage. Can't believe how emotional this is so early on!!

Wanted to respond all weekend but my account was deleted as I had unsubscribed from emails so had to wait to get new one verified! I think it's always worth ringing the place to see how easy it is to book appointments etc with the voucher before you buy it. I too have had some good, some bad experiences.... Just last week I bought a massage voucher but the salon is saying that the "therapist is on exit" and they don't know when she will be back!! hmmmmm I have found Home Maids (800 maid) to be fab! They do 2 hours in most places (incl my 2 bed villa in Springs) and charge just Dhs 30 an hour!
