Hi! I'm 4 months pregnant at the moment and moving to Lyon next month. Does anyone have tips about English speaking midwives/gynocologists/hospitals etc?
Thanks!

Hi Elisabeth
The Croix Rousse hospital has one of the best neonatal services as far as I'm aware and is a good recommendation. They can't follow your preganancy until you're six months but it would be worth registering with them asap. Also, you need to send your file into the CAF normally before 12 weeks so a bit late for you maybe unless you're already in France?
I'm not sure about English speaking but maybe the hospital can help?
Good luck!
