What advice do you have for expats having a baby in Chile?
We asked expat moms who gave birth in Chile about their experiences and advice they have for other moms to be. They said...
"It is important to research the healthcare system in Chile before having a baby. Make sure to find a doctor or midwife that you trust and feel comfortable with. It is also important to familiarize yourself with the local maternity laws and regulations. Additionally, it is a good idea to join a local expat group or forum to connect with other expats who have had babies in Chile. This can be a great source of support and advice. Finally, make sure to take time to relax and enjoy the experience of having a baby in Chile," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Chile.
"Be demanding if necessary. YOU are the one having a baby. The baby is YOURS. Make a birthing plan and share it with your dr., midwife, husband, everyone. Do what you believe is best," commented one expat who made the move to Antofagasta, Chile.
