What advice do you have for expats having a baby in UK?
We asked expat moms who gave birth in UK about their experiences and advice they have for other moms to be. They said...
"Go with the flow and relax. Communicate and discuss.
So many people will look after you with that one midwife you don't get on with should not colour your vision of the whole team and experience or country.
I am gutted our next child will not be born there,"
remarked another expat who made the move to London, UK.
"Move to Chipping Norton. Not all units are good units. Chipping Norton has the UNICEF Baby Friendly Award. They care for their mums and do not consider them numbers. As maternity services struggle to provide good care, Chippy is a diamond in the lot," explained one expat living in Chipping Norton, UK.
