Even though it is cheaper, but how many babies do you make in your lifetime of marriage to have consider this option?
I have not tried but I beleive some foreign hospital in Vietnam too have the same high medical healthcare and hygiene standard as our local hospital. But I just cannot give in to the idea of being seperated thousands of miles away from my fragile newborn flesh and blood, and to a wife who surely for now needs my love and companion even more.
I was also broke when my baby girl came 5 months ago, and shivering when I was waiting for them to print out the total medical bills at Mount Alvernia, but fortunately our doctor had already pre-empt us on the cash needed. I think all doctors will advice on this. Apart from it, we can also utilise our medi-save to help out.
Overall, while one can save some money doing it in Vietnam, the meaningful participation in collecting our baby from the nursery for breast-feeding, running out to nearest food centre to get tastier food for wifey and seeing her appreciation for your love and care... Priceless.
No offence to any bros, just my humble opnion. cheers

Bro .. well said .. I truly agree .. especially I am father of 2 daughters from my previous marriage.
For my current case , I have no choice but to have the delivery in VN ...
1. She miss home and cried ...
2. She not used to eating local food ... can't afford to go on since she is 6 mths pregnant.
3. Feeling Lonely and No one talk to her ... my mum likes her and take care her but she can't speak english
4. $$$ here spent fast, the amount spent here last much longer in Vn and she can save up for future
5. After birth, got to go into confinement period ... thats tough for my mum
so all in all, I have no choice but to give in .... still got 4 mths to delivery, hopefully I can convince her to come January with her mum ...
