What advice do you have for expats having a baby in Kampong Cham?
We asked expat moms who gave birth in Kampong Cham about their experiences and advice they have for other moms to be. They said...
"Firstly, it's important to find a reliable healthcare provider. While Kampong Cham has hospitals and clinics, the standard of healthcare might not be the same as in your home country. You may want to consider traveling to Phnom Penh for regular check-ups and for the delivery, as it has international standard hospitals. Secondly, ensure you have comprehensive health insurance that covers maternity and newborn care. Medical costs can be high, especially if complications arise. Thirdly, familiarize yourself with local customs and traditions related to pregnancy and childbirth. This can help you understand and respect the local culture, and also help you navigate any potential cultural misunderstandings. Fourthly, consider hiring a translator if you're not fluent in Khmer. This can be particularly helpful during medical appointments and in understanding legal documents. Fifthly, make sure your child's birth is registered with both the local authorities and your home country's embassy or consulate. This will ensure your child's citizenship rights are protected. Lastly, connect with other expat parents in the area. They can provide valuable advice, support, and friendship. They can also recommend trusted healthcare providers, nannies, or daycare centers," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Kampong Cham, Cambodia.
