Cultural shock: Hospital Fee

My child was hospitalised few days and the bill just hit the mail. I come from a European country which hospitalisation is free and well regulated. So when I saw the bill I was in shock. The bill came to around 220€?!? They charge us for me staying with my baby, which is required as he is a baby still, also for the diapers?

I am still in shock. Is it normal here?

Pregnant in horeca? Could I work when my tummy pop?

Hi,

I am currently 6 weeks pregnant and work as a waitress 4 months now in a restaurant. I was wondering if it will be ok to work up until my tummy shows? I kinda need the money. I haven't seen any pregnant waitress here so far and that triggers my curiosity. At my workplace, I know later on it will be hard to keep up as we are constantly understaffed and run during peak hours. We also have to carry heavy boxes and crates, which I do believe they won't make me carry them. I also leave the restaurant most nights at midnight and cover many extra shifts.

What is the norm here?

Third baby, bump?

Hi all,

just found out I am pregnant with my third, I want to hide it for a little bit and tell my workplace later. However I watched some videos and saw people start showing at even 8 weeks with their third baby. Is that true?

with my previous one, I started showing earlier but not that early. I am medium build not skinny whatsoever.

Thanks

Giving birth in Sint Vincentius? How about hospitalisation insurance?

Hi,

I just found out that I am pregnant and want to know all about the hospitals and what insurance will I need. I am registered with solidaris, but just the basic one, do I need to upgrade it?

Also I am not with any doctor yet, do I need to find one or I can just book an appointment and go to the hospital to do my check ups?

I read many great things about Sint Augustinus but is quite far for me. How about Sint Vincentius and AZ Monica? In terms of giving birth?

Really appreciate you reading this!

Thank you

Hi all,

we have been thinking to have another child and was wondering how common is vbac here? I had c-section before and it's been 2 years now. In my home country, vbac is not common and you have to actively fight for it and pay a lot. Is it the same case here or do they encourage it like many other countries? I would like to have an idea of how things are running here.

Many thanks for reading.

hi,

so my child started school here not long ago, specifically kindergarten. It is weird to me that in the morning they leave the kids out in the playground to cry until 8:30 and then they get in classes. Also on their break to play outside, 2 teachers to supervise 80 children? How is that normal? my child got injured many times in school and i had talked to them multiple times about that. I don't know if I am exaggerating the matter because it is my child or if that indeed is not very normal. In my home home country is 1 teacher per class, so 1 teacher for 20 kids.

some insights about how it is working here will be highly appreciated, thank you
