Giving birth in Poland

Hello,

Does anyone know about giving birth in Poland? I don't speak Polish and I've heard that all rooms are shared in public hospitals, which makes me wonder about going private.
If you have anything to share, please do :-)

Thank you

Yes I gave birth in Poland but I chose to go private which can be covered by health insurance or around £1000. The hospital I gave birth in is no longer there but the private care was honestly amazing so I would recommend a private hospital over there. The state hospitals I hear do have to share rooms which put me off aswell.

I’m wondering about this as due to give birth in Poland. Is it pretty much the same as the UK? Stay at home until contractions are close together? Does a midwife visit you at home once discharged? Can your husband be with you when giving birth? Any info appreciated :)

@MumOfOne55 Feel free to PM me to discuss, I gathered info since I posted this thread (thanks to @Worldwide2 and doing my own research)
In short, it's yes to all your questions but your experience will vary depending on whether you're going private or not
