Maternity Hospitals & Gynaecologists
Barcelona´s maternity facilities range from large hospitals to smaller clinics and in medical terms, are regarded as being of a high standard. The bigger hospitals tend to operate under the social security system and the clinics under private insurance. Birthing options, however, are limited although this is beginning to change as more women are opting for a natural birth. If you would like to suggest a fertility clinic, maternity hospital or Gynaecologist please do let us know by sending us your recommendations.

Pregnancy Groups & Activities in Barcelona
Ante-natal or pre-pregnancy classes & groups are fairly difficult to come across in Barcelona but are on the increase. Many Catalan pregnant women often get advice from their own families so without family here, information can be scarce and conflicting. Online sites such as www.babycentre.co.uk or www.mumsnet.com can be a great source of information. If you would like to recommend an ante-natal group or online site please do let us know by sending us your comments
