What advice do you have for expats having a baby in Sweden?
We asked expat moms who gave birth in Sweden about their experiences and advice they have for other moms to be. They said...
"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," explained one expat living in Sweden.
