What advice do you have for expats having a baby in Bangladesh?
We asked expat moms who gave birth in Bangladesh about their experiences and advice they have for other moms to be. They said...
"It is important to research the healthcare system in Bangladesh before having a baby there. Make sure to find a reliable doctor or midwife who is experienced in delivering babies in Bangladesh. It is also important to be aware of the cultural norms and expectations surrounding childbirth in Bangladesh. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the laws and regulations regarding birth registration and citizenship in Bangladesh. Finally, it is important to be prepared for the cost of having a baby in Bangladesh, as medical costs can be high," wrote a member who made the move to Bangladesh.
