Whether she tells your employer or not is her decision.  But she certainly should ensure she gets proper medical help and advise from a good doctor.

Best wishes.

Thanks for that.If she seeks medical help or prenatal check up are there documents needed like marriage certificate?

Farhaz

Doctors generally do not ask for marriage certificates. It will be good if she goes and gets herself looked after by proper professionals.

ninja9

Thanks.She's afraid because she's thinking she might go to jail.

Farhaz

If possible she can go there with her partner.

Doctors in Bahrain normally do not ask for any marriage certificates.

Besides it is better to seek medical help early than not at all. 

Best wishes.

Yes that's true..but her partner is not here..i can't help her because im also new here so.i really don't have an idea

Farhaz

Just go ahead and see a doctor. Thats my advise. Do not stay away due to lack of documentation.

Thanks so much.We tried to call and ask how much would it cost her for a check up but the receptionist can't answer they hang up.wr need to know because she has no insurance..any idea?thanks..

The cost will depend on the hospital. Don't be afraid. Just "go" to the hospital and ask for help and assistance.

ninja9

Yes, thanks brightonguy :)

Hi I have a friend who experienced the same. She was admitted in Al Hilal Hospital and cost her Bd1000 .  Another option is to give birth in her country and  pregnant women are allowed to travel up to 6 months.

Ur friend is married?

woliverrr

She made an arranged marriage before giving birth in order to get the  baby's documents. It's best also to inform her employer. Any decision can be discussed.
