What advice do you have for expats having a baby in Morocco?
We asked expat moms who gave birth in Morocco about their experiences and advice they have for other moms to be. They said...
"It is important to research the medical facilities available in the area where you are living in Morocco, as well as the quality of care they provide. Make sure to find a doctor or midwife who speaks your language and is familiar with the local culture. It is also important to be aware of the laws and regulations regarding childbirth in Morocco, such as the need for a birth certificate and the process for registering a child with the Moroccan government. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the cultural norms and expectations surrounding childbirth in Morocco, such as the importance of having a traditional birth attendant present. Finally, it is important to be prepared for the financial costs associated with having a baby in Morocco, such as hospital fees and medical supplies," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Morocco.
"I would give her the number of my gynecologist and tell her to go along to see him. If you can afford private care here you are in good hands," commented one expat who made the move to Tangier, Morocco.
