What advice do you have for expats having a baby in Stavanger?

Answer this Question

We asked expat moms who gave birth in Stavanger about their experiences and advice they have for other moms to be. They said...

"If she were able to have a natural child birth, I would say 'go for it'. If she knew up front that she needed a c-section or there could be any complications, I would say 'run'," commented one expat who made the move to Stavanger, Norway.
