Bibi tells us of her 1st birth experience with her adorable son, Ghanem, and this girl is hilarious! Listen to what she has to say about why she believes her birth was "the best experience in the world", her fears, how our pregnancy & mom and baby circles helped her gain confidence, her postpartum experience, her advise for moms, oh and her 'party in the room'!

Moreover, as we mentioned, we have some exciting pre & postnatal events this month including free educational tasters, workshops and a mom staycation? :)

We caught up with 2 lovely midwives, Wendy & Harriet, from The American Hospital Dubai, to talk to us about what role a midwife plays during a mother's labour & birth at the hospital. They define what their medical profession entails, as well as that of Obstetricians & obstetric nurses, and how a birthing team (that includes doulas!) can work well together to best support the birthing couple.
They also share with us some fascinating birth story experiences they had in the past!
Wendy Menghin also teaches a 2-class Antenatal series at The American Hospital Dubai, for expectant couples birthing in ANY hospital. Classes take place on Saturdays and can be started from around 32 weeks gestation. To book yourself in, email wmenghin@ahdubai.com.

Lots of love,
