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

Answer this Question

We asked expat moms who gave birth in Geoje about their experiences and advice they have for other moms to be. They said...

"Firstly, it's important to familiarize yourself with the healthcare system in Geoje. The city has several hospitals and clinics, but not all of them may offer maternity services. Therefore, it's crucial to find a hospital or clinic that specializes in maternity care. Secondly, language can be a barrier. While some doctors and nurses may speak English, it's not guaranteed. Consider hiring a translator or asking a Korean-speaking friend to accompany you to your appointments. Thirdly, prenatal care in Korea may be different from what you're used to in your home country. Be open to these differences and ask questions if you're unsure about anything. Fourthly, make sure you understand the cost of having a baby in Geoje. While healthcare in Korea is generally affordable, it's still important to budget for prenatal care, delivery, and postnatal care. Fifthly, consider joining expat groups or forums. These can be a great source of support and information. Other expats can share their experiences and give advice on having a baby in Geoje. Lastly, familiarize yourself with the cultural practices surrounding childbirth in Korea. This can help you understand what to expect and how to navigate the process," remarked another expat who made the move to Geoje, Korea.
