Can Indian women travel from India to the UK to give birth for free?

Q. because the NHS is free, i want to benefit from it, also i want to get the British citizenship for me and my baby and my husband also my mom.

Answer it.

A. No you cannot travel from India to the UK to give birth for free.

The NHS is only free for non UK residents for emergencies. A pregnancy is not considered an emergency.

f you are pregnant, you would not be granted a visa to travel anywhere near the due date UNLESS you have arranged for a private medical birth in the UK and have the documents and proof of funds as evidence.

It is a popular misconception that the NHS is free. It is not. UK residents pay through their National Insurance contributions and taxes for the privilege of non-charged health care. Basically if you don't pay in - you can't use the facility.

To access free NHS care you would need to be registered with a NHS doctor's surgery and to become registered, you would need to prove legal residence in the UK.

On the subject of British citizenship for your child, you are 27 years too late. Since 1 Jan 1983, anyone born in the UK must have a British parent or a parent legally settled in the UK to be British. Even if the child was able to claim British citizenship, it would give no rights to any other family member, even its mother, to British citizenship.


What do you think of the British Government planning to put abortion adverts on our TV?
Q. I've just heard that the British Government are planning to put adverts on TV about abortions, and I have to admit it makes me feel sick.
I don't see how this is going to stop the younger generation of Britain having sex. The Government should concentrate on the methods helping prevent pregnancies not showing young people a quick fix for when you are pregnant.

I was just wondering what the rest of you Brits thought about this. All opinions welcome.

A. There is already this advert on British TV for the morning after pill.

As for other adverts they will be simply advice and not abortion services, most abortions in the UK are carried out by the NHS and are therefore free. As for the BBC itself it doesn't show adverts, it is only the commercial stations that play adverts.

In terms of abortion as long as it's carried out within the permitted number of weeks, then I have no problem with it. It's certainly better than going back to the bad old days of illegal abortion, when back street abortionists plyed their trade and many women were left mutilated or even dead.

How far along were you before you got your first u/s scan on the NHS?
Q. I'm currently at 14 weeks and still don't have a date for my "12 week" scan. I'm going on holiday in less than 2 weeks so if it's after that it will be 19 weeks. Is anyone else having the same with the NHS?

A. once i had had my pregnancy confirmed at the doctors i was provided with a password and then i was able to go online and book my appointment on the nhs website with our local womens hospital for my first scan.

have you been to the doctors yet? you may even want to try and just book one with the hospital direct you should really try and get in there before you go on holiday because when you get back you'll be ready for your 20 week scan.

good luck xx


What's the possibility of being pregnant in my situation?
Q. I've taken Ortho tricyclen for over 2 years. I recently had unprotected sex on the last day of my period (I took the last green inactive pill the day before), which is also when I took the first white pill in my pack. Is their a possibility of pregnancy?

A. 50% .. i didnt even read your question...

I'm sorry but your answer is simple - GET A PREGNANCY TEST and pee on it =P

How on earth does anyone here know about your body? The only way to know for sure is taking a test, and for stuff as serious as this, definately do it very soon.

The next time you walk past a chemist, just buy one, or go to one of those NHS walk in clinics

Gooood luck =D
