What advice do you have for expats having a baby in Hradec Kralove?

"Firstly, it's important to familiarize yourself with the Czech healthcare system. The Czech Republic has a high standard of healthcare, including maternity services. However, not all medical staff may speak English fluently, so it might be beneficial to learn some basic Czech phrases related to pregnancy and childbirth, or consider hiring a translator. Secondly, you should register your pregnancy with a local gynecologist as soon as possible. Regular check-ups are important for the health of both the mother and the baby. Thirdly, consider taking prenatal classes. They can provide valuable information about the birthing process and postnatal care. Some hospitals in Hradec Kralove may offer these classes in English. Fourthly, make sure to understand the maternity leave policies in the Czech Republic. The country has quite generous parental leave policies, but it's important to know your rights and obligations. Fifthly, after the baby is born, you will need to register the birth at the local registry office. If you are not a Czech citizen, you will also need to contact your home country's embassy or consulate to register the birth there. Lastly, try to connect with other expat parents in Hradec Kralove. They can provide support, share their experiences, and give advice on raising a child in a foreign country. There are several online forums and social media groups where you can connect with other expat parents," commented one expat who made the move to Hradec Kralove, Czechia.
