Hey everyone. I am pregnant and living here in germany. Do anyone know if I should go to any gouvernment administration to inform them?

Hi soniaa,

first of all : congratulations and best wishes for your pregnancy and birth!

The government is not really interested until your child is born. But you should contact your doctor and health care provider and inquire about all the prenatal services available to you. I found a website in English which explains the details pretty well: http://berlin.angloinfo.com/information … ncy-birth/

All the best

Hello no clue.
Thanx for the info, i'll check the link out. And good idea I will ask more to the doctor and health provider. Back home, administration wants to know everything from the begining so I assumed was may be the same here.
Thanks again.
