Hi all,
I've tried to search old threads for information on this but everything I've found is either very very old or they aren't discussing prices.
I am currently 3 months pregnant and living in London. My husband and I thought that we would have his visa sorted out soon to come over and join me, but it hasn't happened that way and now I am pregnant, which is putting a financial strain on the visa application etc.
I have decided that I want to give birth in DR to be with my husband and his family, as here I have nobody and will have zero support later in my pregnancy and while in labour.
I do not have medical insurance, so before committing to this idea I need to know if I have the finances available to cover this sort of thing.
I am planning on a natural birth but obviously would like to find out about c-sections in case of complications.
Can anybody tell me what sort of costs I am looking at in a good hospital in either Santo Domingo or Santiago?
Thank you all in advance for any help and advice you can offer!
