What advice do you have for expats having a baby in Bangkok?
We asked expat moms who gave birth in Bangkok about their experiences and advice they have for other moms to be. They said...
"1. Make sure to research the best hospitals and doctors in Bangkok for your delivery. Ask your friends and family for recommendations, and read online reviews. 2. Consider hiring a doula or birth assistant to help you during labor and delivery. They can provide emotional and physical support, as well as help you navigate the hospital system. 3. Make sure to get all the necessary vaccinations for your baby before birth. 4. Consider taking a childbirth education class to learn more about the labor and delivery process. 5. Make sure to have a plan for postpartum care. Consider hiring a postpartum doula or a nanny to help you with the transition to parenthood. 6. Research the best international schools in Bangkok for your child's education. 7. Familiarize yourself with the local laws and regulations regarding parenting and childcare. 8. Take advantage of the many family-friendly activities and attractions in Bangkok," said a member in Bangkok, Thailand.
