Giving birth in Argentina

Hi Everyone,

We have been trying for a baby and are planning on moving to Buenos Aires soon as digital nomads. I am wondering if any expats have given birth in Argentina- do you have to or do you recommend getting a certain insurance plan?

My birth plan in the US would have been a natural birth with midwives at a birth center affiliated with a hospital. I'm looking for as close to that experience in Argentina as possible, so any input there would be helpful as well!

If I have to go the excessively medicalized birth route in Argentina (if midwives/birth centers aren't common), does anyone know if nitrous oxide is used in Buenos Aires for birth?

Thanks!
