Expat Advice: Having a Baby in Kampala
What is the name of the city or town that you are reporting on?
Kampala
How recently did you give birth in the country that you are reporting on?
10 weeks ago
Describe your experience giving birth there. What type of facility did you go to? What (if any) type of pain management did you use? How long did you stay in the hospital? Was it a positive experience? Etc...
I can not recommend International Hospital Kampala (IHK) more highly, I had my baby boy there by c section 10 weeks ago.
I had the choice to go home to Australia but decided to stay in Kampala.
I was off pain meds 3 days after the surgery.
