Hi,

could you please share advice and tips about pregnancy in Shenzhen?

Who are the best gynecologists for pregnancy follow-ups?

Which hospitals or clinics would you recommend to give birth in Shenzhen?

Thanks a lot in advance for your advice !

I have the same question as Christine, any info would be appreciated.

My spouse is also curious about how 'restrictive' they are on birth plans.

Thanks

Are you living in Shenzhen now? There have some hospital build by govermet. And one hospital is built by a personal company.

Which kind of hospital do you want?

Hi Kevincai,

We will be moving over in the new year, so trying to get an idea beforehand, this will determine whether she stays in Australia, or we look at a temporary stay in HK around the due date.

Would prefer to know what's on offer in Shenzhen

Hi Christine,

Shekou hospital is where my wife gave birth to our first baby. In shekou area not so big population so you spend less time waiting. Service is better. I saw many expats going there too.
