What advice do you have for expats having a baby in Cambodia?
We asked expat moms who gave birth in Cambodia about their experiences and advice they have for other moms to be. They said...
"It is important to research the medical facilities available in Cambodia before having a baby. Make sure to find a reliable and experienced doctor or midwife who can provide quality care. It is also important to ensure that you have access to the necessary medical supplies and medications. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the cultural norms and expectations surrounding childbirth in Cambodia. Finally, it is important to build a strong support network of family and friends who can provide emotional and practical support during the pregnancy and after the baby is born," remarked another expat in Cambodia.
