Thanks Di@dxb I'll give them a call. Didn't even think that could help with the headaches-added bonus!

We had some renovations done over the winter and a lot of dust in the house and I'm sure in the Aircon ducts. Does anyone recommend a company that can clean this-not the usual Aircon filter cleaning as DH can do that. TIA

Not everything is going to go exactly as planned. There should be someone available because ivf can't be scheduled sun-Thursday... If they are closed and you can't get hold of them-take it easy tomorrow. Go out for breakfast or a movie with your DH and let the dr decide what can be done. It's out of your hands!

Please could someone help me with the documents (if any) needed when my maid goes on holiday. She is due to go mid January and her friends have written a list of things she needs from us (2 x copies of DH passport, visa, his employment contract, her employment contract... )And it a seems strange. Is there anything we need to organise? Thanks so much in advance!

Hi dorisdaydream, I would call the clinic first thing tomorrow morning, if you are ready they might start you off then. I don't have any experience with DGFC (I used Dr Fakih) but I am sure their staff would be able to help you. Remember to (try) relax. We were lucky to have success with our first attempt as were all of my friends that did ivf/icsi. And we would all do it again! Stay positive and good luck for tomorrow!

Hi ladies, I have less than 9 weeks to go. Dr says I will probably deliver sooner as am suffering with high sugar. Doing the City Hospital tour this Friday-but would be great to meet up.

Hi rainyskies, I have just had my iPhone screen fixed (for the second time) in Satwa. Both times were my fault as I drop my phone a little too often. The first time the screen shattered-literally held together by the screen protector, and the second time-the screen was green and blue lines and couldn't see anything on it. Took it to a Hot Line in satwa and 30 min later...Perfect phone. The guys are so helpful-I would really recommend them. Good luck.

Hi Prat03, spoken about antenatal classes with friends who have had little ones already, and not one of my friends have highly recommended doing antenatal classes. Your dr and the midwives will tell you what you need to do and when. So we have decided to 'use' that money for afterwards if we need lactation support or something like that. That's just what we have decided...

Great idea Jessie! I am a trainer for a company and there are a few training companies out there but a lack of passion! I would be interested to talk to you re working g for you as well. I would target schools, hotels, big companies (banks, service related and people who have customers in and out) Good luck.

Hi Jacquilb, I'm just over 18 weeks and was wondering if anyone else was due in July... I am still loosing weight-not at my pre-preview weight yet, which my dr is not happy about. Seeing her in 2 weeks time and the weight is still staying off. Ironic-as I used to put on weight if I thought about food. Love to catch up with some other expectant moms.

Hi, I am starting the process of hiring a maid as well. Very daunting as i have never had a full time maid-actually don't even get part time help anymore.

Sure, we used Pearl Property Management. Agent has changed but the mobile number is 050 6252401. We are going to move earlier than planned as we have bought a house and should move by end of next month.

Hi Lora, We 'lost' one of our kittens, and we searched all over the complex 'meowing' and calling him. He was one road away - but not the road we looked down first. We walked the whole Springs 15! I know what you are going through. He also went missing when we were away and a friend was looking after him, we went out the back alley and he was 3 houses away, probably got really confused but we got him. They get less inclined to go exploring and happier to stay inside as they get older. (Either that or the heat?!?) Good luck and lwt us know when you find her.

Couldn't get an app with Dr Reyes till end of the week-So went to a GP, she says she couldn't feel any lumps so put me on Evening Primrose Oil for now and I must just monitor. If anything changes i'll need to do a ultrasound. Glad I went though! Thanks ladies.

Decided not to call today-not painful today, haven't worn a br@ today so that could have helped?? Not breast feeding so not sure what it was. Will see how I feel over the next few days-if it comes back I'm going straight to the dr. Thanks for the info BFC, will do a little reading up on it. Swils: I hope the dr went ok this morning.

Morning Trin, my email s sunshinedubai at ymail dot com. Thanks so much for the info-would love to learn as much as I can. Have decided to keep a food/feeling journal so when I go to the Dr I don't sit there trying to remember what I feel like and when I feel worse. I've tried to deal with the stress. Stopped working/eating better/taking multi vitamins and tissue salts/started walking and yoga... and nothing is working yet. My poor DH needs a medal-he says he just wishes I was back to 'myself'. Makes 2 of us! Thanks again and I look forward to hearing from you.

I've been told to make an appointment with Belinda Rennie. Anyone seen her? It's not the fatigue that bothers me as much as the constant headaches and feeling depressed that I really have a problem with. REALLY HOPE SOMEONE CAN HELP ME! It has been too long.

Thanks Natalie8. Going to try find a naturopath here. Maybe they can find some answers for me. Been having horrid constant headaches for nearly 2 years and have tried EVERYTHING and now they think it's this adrenal failure/fatigue. Very stressed-lots of causes and none that I can do anything about. Thank you so much-will let you know how I go..

Most of the springs have a community pool. We are in springs 15 and there are 2 community pools, basketball courts and a tennis court (which i only found the other day-after being here 6 months). What I like about the area is there is everything nearby-spinneys, schools, medical center, resturants ect and the rentals are good at the moment! We have looked at the lakes (we are looking to buy now) and the size of the gardens in the ones we saw were really tiny. I love spending as much time-while we can-outside so that was important for me. All being said-different strokes for different folks! Good luck.

The price increases are on everything. Salary stays the same and everything else goes up! What do you do when the price of meat increases - eat less meat. What do you do when the price of alc0hol goes up - eat less meat.

Max (the electronics shop in Oasis) has a few steamers going. They have a bissell steam cleaner - in SA we know it as the big green clean machine and it's only AED1200. Saw it about a week and a bit ago.
