What advice do you have for expats having a baby in Bahamas?
We asked expat moms who gave birth in Bahamas about their experiences and advice they have for other moms to be. They said...
"Before giving birth in the Bahamas, it is essential to make sure that you have all the necessary paperwork in order, including visas and health insurance. Additionally, it is recommended to do extensive research on the type of care and hospital you prefer to have your baby delivered in, as well as familiarizing yourself with the labor and delivery care available in the local area. Make sure to ask a healthcare provider all of your questions in order to make the best decisions for you and your baby. Finally, consider reaching out to other expats and the local expat community for advice, support and assistance," wrote a member who made the move to Bahamas.
