What advice do you have for expats having a baby in Luxembourg?
We asked expat moms who gave birth in Luxembourg about their experiences and advice they have for other moms to be. They said...
"It's important to do your research and make sure that you are familiar with the Luxembourg healthcare system and insurance policies. Being prepared for all eventualities is key when it comes to having a baby abroad. Additionally, it is helpful to reach out to other expat parents in Luxembourg who will be a great source of advice and support. You should also make sure that you have a trusted network of medical staff available to you in case you need any medical advice or assistance during this exciting time. Finally, it's important to make use of local facilities such as maternity care, pregnancy classes and other childcare services," said another expat in Luxembourg, Luxembourg.
"-Visit the hospital before giving birth to familiarize yourself. -Practice breathing in advance -Choose and book a place in creche well in advance if you plan to send your baby to creche. After you give birth, you will be tired and very busy to do anything but taking care of your baby, and yourself. -Meet with other expecting moms before you give birth if you have chance. I became food friends with a few expecting mothers and we have supported each other a great deal. You can meet them through the meetings of BabyWellclinic. I met mine through French class, and also two of them are my neighbors," wrote a member who made the move to Luxembourg, Luxembourg.
