We have a baby girl! (we = me + BarbaraB)
Name: Ivana. Date of birth: March 8th. No complications, the baby seems healthy.
She was born in Hainburg in Austria, which is near Bratislava, because frankly we trust Austrian health care more than Slovakian (based on both personal experience and research: tl;dr: health care in Slovakia is typically understaffed and overmedicates, doctors in Austria are typically much more polite and friendly, and what they say seems more compatible with international research, although there are exceptions too). Now we are back in Bratislava.
Congratulations!
You ain't seen nothing yet.
Yep. But you'll cope.
Congratulations!
Out of curiosity: What do you think of Czech healthcare? I got appendicitis while visiting the Czech Republic and had to have my appendix out while there in a hospital that was built in the 1300s.
I cannot speak about specific topics, but my general impression based on situation with childbirths is: better than Slovakia, slightly worse (but significantly cheaper) than Austria. Of course in other aspects it may be different.
That would be the least of my concerns. I care about the statistics of outcomes, and friendly treatment by doctors. (I see you are from USA. There is a cultural difference: In Europe hundreds of years old buildings are no big deal.)
Haha, thanks. Was just curious. You're right about it being significantly cheaper. 5 days in the hospital, surgery, and all the drugs that go along with that: ~$400 USD.
