Hi,

could you please share advice and tips about pregnancy in Copenhagen?

Who are the best gynecologists for pregnancy follow-ups?

Which hospitals or clinics would you recommend to give birth in Copenhagen?

Thanks a lot in advance for your advice !

i would definitely recommend rigshospital, especially to expats. the staff are very good english speakers and i have only heard good things from my two friends who have given birth there. i visited one of them there myself and i was impressed with the patience of the nurses while she was helping my friend figure out how to get the baby to latch. she also received a 'starter pack' of diapers and formula from the hospital.

i heard from a few of my friends who have given birth in jutland (sorry, can't remember the hospital) that they were not able to obtain the epidural... the nurses gruffly kept telling her to wait and finally it was "too late." what a horror story.
