Hi I am also having my baby in Beijing, I am due in July. There are lots of hospital etc advertised in the thats beijing magazines etc but I know this is abit confusing. We are going with the Beijing United family hospital, I know alot of people find this one of the most expensive but we have insurance so we are covered and its the hospital I felt most comfortable with. Its to western standards and very clean and they speak English. Do you have any insurance to cover costs?
The BJ united have a web page its unitedfamilyhospitals.com and they have been very helpful so far when I have contacted them.I have also used the SOS Clinic (again a western standard) clinic for check pre natal check ups and all my tests (I transfer to the hospital this weekend as I want to be familiar with the doctors and hospital before the birth so I feel comfortable at the time of delivery.)
I must admit I actually prefer the healthcare I have recieved so far in Beijing to that I would have received in England.
I hope you get all the info you need and if you want to get in touch or to speak face to face some time thats no problem, we can arrange something, If not I wish you all the best in your pregnancy.

I have just read your thread on another part of the site and realised you are not in Beijing at the moment (and I dont know where you are based) so I will give you another web address I have found in the Beijing magazines so you can have a look at a couple of places before you decide. I havent been there but I know a friend who is looking into them and said they seem good and more reasonable prices (but like i said I have no personal experience with them)
It is the American-sino OB/GYN service. Their web addresses are:
www.asog-beijing.com
www.americanobgyn.com
Hope this is of some use. x

Thanks pregnant in bj , I will look into all these , yes it is all very confusing as I am in Korea at the moment and will be here until July when we relocate to Bj , I spent 5 months in Bj last year so I kind of know my way around but last time I was there I never needed to go near the hospitals so I am in the dark . I have no insurance as I was too late to apply .Thanks again for your help , I may need your advice again later on !

hello pink: i just read your letter,and i would like to recommond a famous hospital for your labour in beijing--that is Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, it is a government supported spical hospital for pregnant.may be you are conscious about why i speak of that hospital,frankly tell you, i am a chinese doctor,i am a anesthetist in that hosptial,if you have more interest in our hospital you can mail to me. i think our hosptial are also have good medical service, and our experience are as better as you know in beijing other hospital,and the price is much more cheaper than United family hospital,for example we have painless labour(spinal anesthesia most popular technique in the world), and our obstetrican is good at operation because we nearly do 30 operations each day .so please trust me and i would like to help you, i think you are luck to meet me,as you know there are fewer chinese especially chinese doctor see this web site. please forgive me my poor english writing. if you have more questions you can mail to me:
