My doctor does know some English but its just easier to do everything through translation with my husband. If I had to go to an appointment alone it would be comfortable though and we would accomplish what we needed to. We are of course using a prvt doctor and not the system here so I dont know how that would go.bordersasidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14142674938117338592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6553388201961125907.post-24061806495049135512009-01-22T20:26:00.000-08:002009-01-22T20:26:00.000-08:00Have enjoyed reading your posts on pregnancy in Me...Have enjoyed reading your posts on pregnancy in Mexico. Have been in Mexico for just a few months, and we're thinking of starting a family here but weren't so sure about the healthcare system, especially with my sub-par language abilities. Have your doctor visits gone smoothly in broken spanish?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6553388201961125907.post-66975520942616155932009-01-20T15:17:00.000-08:002009-01-20T15:17:00.000-08:00http://www.flickr.com/photos/xkrockx/3193657690/Oh...http://www.flickr.com/photos/xkrockx/3193657690/<BR/><BR/>Oh man the lipstick on the face present guess is a hardcore tradition in my bf's family. They do it at EVERY shower and they have a lot of them. I think your baby shower will be pretty similar to the one's in the states except maybe more food. Same games. I hope you get some cool stuff!K-Rockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12162879869715997500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6553388201961125907.post-91430605893540446622009-01-19T15:17:00.000-08:002009-01-19T15:17:00.000-08:00Oh Liz thanks for the warning. lolOh Liz thanks for the warning. lolbordersasidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14142674938117338592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6553388201961125907.post-29504959436507547962009-01-19T14:34:00.000-08:002009-01-19T14:34:00.000-08:00I've been to quite a few baby showers thrown my Me...I've been to quite a few baby showers thrown my Mexican ladies, and they are so much more fun!!<BR/><BR/>If they hand you a safety pin/small bouquet to pin to your clothing, DO NOT CROSS YOUR LEGS WHEN YOU SIT. Instead, watch for other ladies to cross their legs and steal their pins! Whoever collects the most by the end of the party wins a prize. :)Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13567396277656096639noreply@blogger.com
