"Make sure to research the Swedish healthcare system and the maternity care available to you. It is important to register with a midwife or doctor as soon as possible to ensure you receive the best care during your pregnancy. Additionally, it is important to familiarize yourself with the Swedish parental leave system and the benefits available to you. Make sure to take advantage of the free antenatal classes offered by the Swedish healthcare system to ensure you are well-prepared for the birth of your baby. Finally, don't forget to take time to enjoy the experience of becoming a parent in Sweden," said another expat in Sweden.
