Where did you give birth? 👶🏼🤰🏼
One of the best part about giving birth in the Netherlands = your birth plan can be suuuper flexible! Which means that you are free to decide where to give birth right in the moment, because sometimes, what we plan for doesn’t always pan out. Your midwife will simply guide you in the moment and find you a room if needed.
We both gave birth at the hospital:
Kate had scheduled C-sections at OLVG West and Alizée had a natural, un-medicated birth at Amstelland. We had really positive experiences with supportive hospital staff ❤️
How was your birth and which option did you end up going for?
👍🏼Tip: When you are planning on getting pregnant or already pregnant, you can subscribe to the pregnancy additional package of your health insurance which will cover your hospital birth. Each insurance will cover different things as part of this package so do your research to choose the best one! Reminder: you have until Dec 31st to change your health insurance or add options.
