I have a 10 month old baby I had my baby in Hamed's Hospital witch is the public hospital. The doctors are excellent I had never even considered public health in my country so I was a bit scare but Drs were so professional and I was treated excellent. I chouse this hospital because they have the best equipment and in general have the best health care when it comes to births. In general I had a good experience. You have to consider that:
-To have a consultation there takes time so I went to a private Dr all my pregnancy and the two months I went back to see the Dr in the hospital
-Husband is not allowed in the delivery room
-Baby will be bottle feed the first day. After that you can ask for breastfeeding only. (It worked for me and I am still breastfeeding)
-You might want o consider a private room their private rooms are Amazing

As far as bringing with you I will suggest to get your nursery before you come here. There are not many stores to chouse from, and items are not so pretty. We have Mothercare, Chicco, Baby Shop, Premamom and a small section of Babys r us in Toys R Us. You can find almost everything here.

There are also play groups and a bunch of stay home moms that love to met new moms. The parks for the kids are clean and VERY safe. I generally like it. I think is a good place to raise kids.
