My first child was born in Holland and their Natural approach to pregnancy and childbirth scared the bejaysus out of me in the beginning but they soon had me convinced.
It is a fantastic place to have a baby but be warned epidural is a dirty word. The hospital I was due to give birth at told me they only administered them Mon-Fri 9-5 !!!
They have a great attitude though and it was from them that I learned not to treat pregnancy as a sickness which seems to be the mindset both here and in the UK. Their natural birthing attitude convinced me later on with my second (in the UK) to have a home birth which was a great success.
So long as you have been paying Dutch tax, you will be entitled to a Kraamzorg. This is in essence a pediatric nurse / housekeeper. She will come to your house for 7 days after the birth of your child to help your wife in every way she can. Mine did the hoovering and the ironing !!
This is done because as soon as the baby is born, mother and child are sent home asap. I gave birth at 10:30pm and by 10:30am the following day I was home. Good Kraamzorgs are hard to find though, approach your doctor, he will refer you to a midwife who will then refer you to a Kraamzorg. These wonder women need to be booked early but are completely covered by your taxes.
Good luck to Mr and Mrs Boots, Holland is a very child friendly country
