I live around din daeng

Please, Ding Daeng and whole Pracha Songro Rd. is quite affordable area even if "mum" is not reach enough for private hospitals. My friend delivered in Female Health Clinic near Huay Kwang junction & MRT. I reckon it was about 6-7K for everything and Birth Cert. separately 600 THB. Please ask around - it is very affordable area.
Or if you're not afraid just ask directly at Police Station - very nice and helpful people over there - they know every establishment and venue of that area. 

Good luck!

This  aopears to be ftom AI. And, as js oftdmen the case, it is incorrect (abd garbled). 

 

Thai citizenship at birth depends on at least one of thev parents being a Thai citizen. Place of birth is irrrelevant to this. 

 

Reverting to OP situation, the baby will NOT have Thai citizenship at birth dince bith oatrnts are fo

 

SDMC is not the  appropriate place to go. There appears to have been complete misunderstanding of the purpose of your visit. 

 

Both of these hospitals do  treat foreigners, and foreign women do deliver babies there. 

 

Who is translating for you on these visits?

 

And can I ask your nationality and form of identification (passport? Pink card? Etc)

 

I could keep suggesting different government hospitals but I think the problems may continue until we get to the bottom ilof what is the cause. 

 

 

 

 

Thank you @Sheryl. We did the conversation ourselves. We are Nigerians and our passports is our means of identification.

Try to  have a native Thai speaker go with you next time, as there seem to have been communication issues.

 

Hospitals you have not yet tried include Chulalongkorn and Srindihorn. A little further away for you but Srindihorn would be pretty quick by taxi using the expressway.

Can you provide the actual name and address of this facility, please. There is no place named "Female Health Clinic".

A post discussing illegal activity has been remoived.

 

The OP is seeking a government hospital for delivery.  Nothing else.

C-Section is more common in Thailand by at least 10-20% than it is in the West, i.e. UK and Europe, USA

That in itself is no justification for say it is a preferred method of delivery.

My niece is an Obs & Gny surgeon and C sections are her thing. She is extremely busy and it has nothing to do with preference, problems arise for a variety of reasons with many down to lifestyle.

Alongside the more common problems there is an increasing number of babies that are growing above the safe size for the Thai pelvis plus both mental health and substance abuse issues are on the increase.

You cannot always take stats at face value.
