"1. Make sure to research the best hospitals and doctors in the area to ensure you have the best care for your baby. 2. Familiarize yourself with the local healthcare system and the types of insurance available to you. 3. Consider hiring a doula or midwife to help you through the birthing process. 4. Make sure to have a support system in place, such as family and friends, to help you during the pregnancy and after the baby is born. 5. Take advantage of the many resources available to expats in Pune, such as expat forums and support groups. 6.
