“Both mother and baby are now safe. The medics were very happy to help the mother welcome her special bundle of joy on Eid Al Adha,” the National Ambulance posted.
The authority urged pregnant women to undergo regular medical screening. It also urged them to follow their doctors’ instructions on the expected date of delivery, and telltale signs to reduce the probability of facing sudden labour and avoid associated risks of delivering outside the hospital environment.
