My sister in law delivered twice there she doesn't seem to hate it hut there's no consistency. The emergency attending delivers so you get stuck with whoever is on shift.

I met with Dr. Britt clausson and she is great in terms of knowledge- she is the head of the department but her waiting list is way to long and the first appointment is in 3 months! The hospital booked me to see the new south African dr. Joining at the end of the month so I will keep you posted.

Hi all, I just had my 20 week scan and it was amazing to see all the little organs. I was duper curious to know the gender but my baby wouldn't have it and spent all his time showing us his bottom! I am hoping the next scan reveals it although part of me now wants it to be a surprise...

Hi everyone! First of all congratulations to all of you pregnant! I am Due around July 20th, at the moment I am 11 weeks pregnant with twins! This is my first pregnancy and a new world is opening up for me. In the first weeks of the pregnancy I was hit hard by all day """"morning"""" sickness and constant nausea and fatigue, but thanks to some good anti nausea meds I am getting better and try to get healthier too. Isn`t it funny all the food aversions and cravings? Anyway, we just had our scan again on the 11 week mark and both of the babies are doing really well...and growing as they should. It is amazing to hear those heartbeats. We are also looking like most of you for a good OB/hospital who can take us under their wing and will take me all the way through. Just hard to pick! I also had contact with Dr. George from Genesis in healthcare city and he is specialized in complicated pregnancies and does even do deliveries. Soon we will see him, cause will do the NT scan at his clinic. I would love to meet up with you ladies! Check your dates again with a Dr - I am 13 weeks and due 7 August so you are either 15 weeks or due later than you think - Oh, unless you have booked a c section for a few weeks early than you EDD I cant recommend Dr Geaorge enough, he is just wonderful and kind. I didnt deliver with him but he is just a lovely man - I see him at Genesis clinic for my scans Good luck with twins!!! edited by mumofmoo on 02/02/2014 Congrats on the twins Cootje! Hope you feel better soon. So far I've had only food aversions (no cravings at all), especially proteins and dairy. I sometimes wonder if I'll ever be able to look at a juicy burger the same way again Also, I second mumofmoo on getting your dates checked. I'm 17 weeks along and my EDD is July 11. Yes something is wrong with your dates! I am due July 20th too and I am in my 17th week. i'd suggest you to use the site babycentre.com as it gives you quite an accurate idea of your due date along with weekly information on you and your baby's growth....best of luck! <em>edited by realist_sz on 05/02/2014</em>

hello ladies, I am closing in on week 20 and Dr. Elsa has asked me to schedule a Morphology scan (also known as detailed organ scan). City Hospital itself doesnt do this and they referred me to the Fetal clinic in healthcare city which has no female doctors. Also, this scan is not convered by any insurance unfortunately. Has anyone done this yet or can advice on it? I know a few places do it Medic for AED490, Aster for AED690 and Femiclinic for AED1000 but being that the doctor who does this should be experienced rathar than just someone who looks for the gender, i wanted advice on any particular place that any of you could reccomend.

Hello! Im new to pregnancy and new to this forum! Just came from the doctor with a due date towards the end of July..very excited! I have been checking out doctors and reviews for a few months and i have been to Dr.Luthra at Medcare and Dr. Elsa at City Hospital. Both are fabulous but i have chosen city for my delivery mainly because Dr. Elsa spends the time with you and explains what's going on and talks you through issues if you are nervous which Dr. Luthra doesnt have time for. However, both are the best in Dubai based on many, many reviews. Hope it help and congratulations to all!
