5 reasons you SHOULDN'T have a baby in JAPAN

Hi guys!
Today I will be talking about the top 5 reasons why you shouldn't have a baby in Japan.
***DISCLAIMER
What I talk about in this video is based off my experience giving birth in Tokyo at the start of this year (2024)
Obviously there are some differences depending on the city you live in and what kind of clinic/hospital you choose. I did my best to talk about what the average person will experience based off my own and also from reading articles and joining pregnancy groups online.
If you have any questions about having a baby in Japan, please feel free to ask me in the comments :)

I will give birth this December in Chiba. Thanks for the tips. I will try and talk about my options soon with my clinic.

8 hours alone???! 30 min visitation? Are they crazy? Setting aside all of the other egregious issues the partner visitation rules are unnecessarily cruel.

I thought it would be fair if they gave a pass even just for the maternity ward. We’re not there because we’re sick 😑
