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

"It is important to research the different types of healthcare available in Hong Kong and to find a doctor or midwife who is experienced in delivering babies in the city. It is also important to familiarise yourself with the local maternity and childcare services, as well as the different types of insurance available to cover the costs of childbirth. Additionally, it is important to ensure that you have a good support network in place, as having a baby can be a stressful and overwhelming experience. Finally, it is important to take time to relax and enjoy the experience of having a baby in Hong Kong," remarked another expat in Hong Kong.

"My feeling about giving birth in another country was this: Children are born all over the world on a daily basis. Not all practices are the same, but it is amazing how many children successfully come into this world in every country. I did seek out a hospital that I would hopefully feel comfortable in, but that's no guarantee. I trusted all would go well. I also found a Doctor that I felt comfortable with and trusted," said a member in Hong Kong, Hong Kong.
