Mediclinic City Hospital invites you to join our free mothers’ support group meetings, conducted monthly by our certified IBCLC lactation consultants. At Mediclinic City Hospital, our lactation consultants are on hand in a series of monthly meetings to offer advice and help to women who are trying to breastfeed their babies.

While the focus of these meetings remains the same - parenting and breastfeeding - each discussion is unique due to the ever changing mix of participants and their needs. Mothers can benefit from information and support to suit their individual circumstances, and also find it helpful to share their personal experience and helpful tips, while learning about baby feeding and nutrition from the experts.The lactation consultants are there to answer questions, allay fears and give reassurance. Of course, babies are welcome to come with their mothers to these meetings!

Occasionally, experts such as neonatologists, paediatricians, physiotherapists or dieticians will join the meetings to offer their expertise on issues related to babies’ development, communication and future health. Meetings usually finish with refreshments, distribution of goodies sponsored by our valuable partners and time for more chat with the organisers.

Remember, these meetings are absolutely free. For more information and to book your place please email us at mch.lactation@mediclinic.ae or call/SMS 0556053005.
