When do postnatal visits usually start?
Most families in Abu Dhabi begin postnatal care in the first days after coming home, when recovery, feeding, and newborn care are all new at once. Support can continue through the first weeks, with the number and timing of visits shaped around your birth, your recovery, and how you and your baby are doing.
Do you offer postnatal home visits in Abu Dhabi?
Yes. NativaCare’s postnatal care is delivered as a home visit across Abu Dhabi, so your midwife can check your recovery and your baby in your own space. We cover Khalidiyah, Al Reem Island, Saadiyat Island, Yas Island, Khalifa City, and the surrounding communities.
What does a postnatal visit include?
A typical visit covers your physical recovery, your baby’s wellbeing and feeding, infant sleep and settling, and your emotional wellbeing. Your midwife also answers your questions and flags anything that needs onward medical attention, so nothing important gets missed in the blur of the early weeks.
I have struggled emotionally since birth. Can you help?
Yes. Your midwife checks in on how you are coping and helps you understand the difference between the common early baby blues and signs that need more support. Where further help is appropriate, she will guide you toward the right professional or service, so you are never left to work it out alone. If you ever feel unable to cope or have thoughts of harming yourself, please contact a doctor or local health service straight away.
We are expats with no family here. Is this service right for us?
Very much so. A large part of NativaCare’s postnatal work supports expat families in Abu Dhabi who are navigating a new country and early parenthood without relatives nearby. Your midwife becomes the steady, knowledgeable presence that family support would usually provide.
