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

"1. Make sure to research the different healthcare options available to you in Singapore, such as public and private hospitals, and decide which one best suits your needs. 2. Consider enrolling in antenatal classes to help you prepare for the birth of your baby. 3. Make sure to apply for a birth certificate and passport for your baby as soon as possible. 4. Consider joining a local expat group or forum to connect with other expat parents and get advice and support. 5. Take advantage of the many family-friendly activities and attractions available in Singapore. 6. Make sure to research the different childcare options available to you in Singapore, such as daycare centers, nannies, and babysitters. 7. Take the time to explore the city and get to know the local culture and customs. 8. Make sure to take care of yourself during your pregnancy and get plenty of rest," remarked another expat in Singapore.
