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

"Firstly, it's important to familiarize yourself with the Belgian healthcare system, which is one of the best in Europe. You should ensure that you have a good health insurance plan that covers maternity costs. Secondly, you should find a good gynaecologist or midwife who speaks your language, as they will be your primary source of support during your pregnancy. Thirdly, you should consider taking prenatal classes, which are often offered in English. These classes can help you prepare for childbirth and parenthood. Fourthly, you should be aware that in Belgium, it is common to give birth in a hospital rather than at home. You should visit a few hospitals in Liege to find one where you feel comfortable. Fifthly, you should start looking for a paediatrician for your baby well before the due date. Sixthly, you should familiarize yourself with the process of registering your baby's birth. In Belgium, you must register the birth at the local town hall within 15 days. Lastly, you should take advantage of the generous parental leave policies in Belgium. Both parents are entitled to take time off work to care for their new baby. Remember, it's important to take care of your own health and well-being during this time. Don't hesitate to seek help if you're feeling overwhelmed or anxious," remarked another expat who made the move to Liege, Belgium.
