What advice do you have for expats having a baby in Falmouth?
We asked expat moms who gave birth in Falmouth about their experiences and advice they have for other moms to be. They said...
"It is important to research the healthcare facilities in your area, so that you feel comfortable with the options available for prenatal care and delivery. It's also important to get to know your midwife or obstetrician, who is responsible for your care during pregnancy and delivery. To ensure the best possible care for both mother and baby, it's important to plan ahead and be aware of the precautions that are needed during pregnancy and delivery. Joining a local mom’s group can help you build a support network of other mums and expats who understand the special joys, and challenges, of parenting in a new country. Finally, make sure that you are familiar with the laws and legal requirements of parenting in Jamaica, especially in areas such as immigration," commented one expat who made the move to Falmouth, Jamaica, Jamaica.
