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

"Firstly, it's important to familiarize yourself with the healthcare system in Antigua and Barbuda. The country has a mix of public and private healthcare facilities, but the quality of care may not be as high as in your home country. Ensure you have comprehensive health insurance that covers maternity care and childbirth. Some insurance companies may not cover pregnancy-related expenses for a certain period after the policy starts, so plan ahead. Find a good obstetrician and pediatrician. You can ask for recommendations from other expats or locals. Understand the local customs and practices related to pregnancy and childbirth. This can help you feel more comfortable and prepared for the experience. Learn about the legal aspects of having a baby in Antigua and Barbuda. This includes understanding the process for obtaining a birth certificate and passport for your child. Consider hiring a doula or midwife who can provide additional support and guidance during pregnancy and childbirth. Ensure you have a support network in place. This can include other expats, local friends, or family members who can provide emotional and practical support. Prepare for the possibility of needing to travel to another country for childbirth if complications arise or if you want a higher level of care than is available locally. Lastly, enjoy this special time in your life and take advantage of the beautiful surroundings in Bolans, Antigua and Barbuda," wrote a member who made the move to Bolans, Antigua & Barbuda.
