Post subject: Having a baby in Shanghai a good idea??

Would love to hear a mother's experience with doctors, hospitals, whether they are fully equipped and whether you do or don't recommend having your baby here. I'm from the U.S. and my husband and I are contemplating about starting a family soon.

You might want to connect with the 'Bumps and Babes' group that meet twice a month. The email address is: bumps.babes@gmail.com

There is also the Yahoo! group, Shanghai Mamas
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ShanghaiMamas/

Also, check out the blog: www.shanghai-mama.com

If you look through the Family Life and Kids Forum, you'll find a lot of info. Several of my American friends have had their first babies here and have been happy. You'll find that most expats have their babies at either Worldlink or Shanghai Family United.
