What advice do you have for expats having a baby in Sharjah?
We asked expat moms who gave birth in Sharjah about their experiences and advice they have for other moms to be. They said...
"It is important to research the healthcare options available in Sharjah before having a baby. Make sure to find a doctor or midwife who is experienced in delivering babies in the UAE. It is also important to familiarize yourself with the local laws and regulations regarding childbirth and parenting. Additionally, it is a good idea to join a local expat group or forum to connect with other expats who have had babies in Sharjah. Finally, make sure to take advantage of the many resources available to expats in Sharjah, such as the Sharjah Expat Center, which can provide helpful information and advice," said a member in Sharjah, the UAE.
