Hi Again,
I found out some more information from EK Clinic. I wanted to post this so others are VERY clear.
Your wife HAS to be physically in Dubai for 6 months PLUS the date from her last period before getting pregnant. So, Basically 7 months.
EK are really tightening down here. They are trying to find any way possible not to pay. Please ALSO note that pre-existing conditions are not covered. All consultations with the doctors and nurses are free at the clinic. But, as above, you have to pay for external care if the dates don't fit. As an example, The government maternity hospital (Al Wasl) now charge 5000 AED for a maternity care package. This does NOT include delivery. It used to be 1500 AED. So if this applies to you and your family, please think carefully.
Finally, I am sure all of us that write on this forum wish you and the family well for your new arrival
