This poor dog is so sick. I’m sad to say but I think he needs to be euthanised. I’m a palangi so I’m unsure what I can do to help it as I’m fairly new to Samoa. I have been giving him scraps of food when I see him but he needs more than food 😔

Talofa lava, my husband and I are moving to Apia for work from early 2027. We have been trying for a baby for the past 8 months and I sadly have had some early miscarriages, and so instead of moving to Samoa with a wee one as planned, it's possible I might get pregnant while in Samoa.

Is anyone able to share any details about what medical care is available for pregnancy in Apia? Are there private clinics where you can get 8 week, 12 week and 20 week ultrasounds and other antenatal care? I'm assuming I'll need to return to NZ for key milestones and more complex care and will also return home to deliver with family nearby but just wanting to get a sense of what I can expect.
