Does it seem like your long wait for a baby is over?

I bet it'll be kinda difficult to find an English-speaking OB-Gyn. Your next option could be to bring an interpreter along with you and your wife.

Title: Babies born in Taxis.

This actually happened.
Going back a few years now, an Australian friend managed to find a doctor who would deliver naturally but was not keen on it.
However, when the waters and all hell broke loose, He delivered his son in the taxi on the way to the hospital.
Poor driver was a total mess.

Mother, son and father were all perfectly fine and cool about it.

The doctors were wanting to tie the tubes of his Chinese wife but he managed to prevent it due to the fact that he was Australian thus a minority group.
Minority groups are allowed to have more than 1 child.

If your baby is about to come, just call 120 and let her deliver right in the ambulance,

That might be good and as well historical for you,

I heard people born in cars, trains, buses and ambulances have special gifts, ;D ;D ;D

I dont blieve in myths but if you do try it out,

Safe delivery

I wasn't aware that caesarean section deliveries were the most common. Why is this? I would think natural delivery would be the easiest in most cases. I know in the states, a caesarean section is usually only in cases where a natural birth is risky. Does health insurance (http://www.goldenrule.com/) cover a caesarean section?

Look at the bone structure of Chinese women's hips... the babies would be taller but thinner...  ;D

Hi, mates, I don't know your situation. So, your wife needs such help in near future?  I grows up in Hefei, I may enquire for you.  Any other information you think I should be aware in enquiry?

There is the pink, Women's hospital on the corner of MingGuang Lu and HePing XiLu, diagonally opposite "HePing GuangChang".

Never having been there myself but at a guess, I'd say it should be a good one.

Thanks so much guys!  :D  I'll post feedback after I check them out.
Haiying, I'm the wife and, hopefully, there'll be no "such help" needed in near future...  ;)
