[quote author=uncleC01 post=48836374]

you can check Dr A.G chaudry his fee about 2650 and uses prince george hospital @ maryland[/quote

If you have Prince George Hospital on your list then you can't use my hospital cos its way cheaper than mine. My county is Harford County, which is almost 1.45mins away.

i used University of maryland upper chesapeake hospital. i gave the breakdown of my bills in my earlier post

Yeah. ...want to ask about the hospital and doctor u used in maryland so I can add to my list of research. Still looking for the cheapest in Maryland even though hubby is not complaining about what I've given him so far but menh body dey pepper me to spend that kind of money. Won't mind few dollars off . Plus send me the info if you don't mind . Hospital ,doctor , phone and email Addy abi na fax as usual lol. Total bill in short . Thanks . Email addy is beeptemi@yahoo.Com

Have you tried Reston hospital in Virginia? Just about an hours drive from Maryland but you might be able to reduce your costs significantly. Goggle them and check their ratings and cost

Hi everyone. Does anyone know how easy Newark POE is? A friend is talking about possibly getting a cheap ticket to Newark instead of New York and I need to be sure I won't have too much stress when passing through CBP at Newark. I can't sacrifice successful entry for cheap ticket. Pls help me so I can decide, time don dey go... Na gode!
You better grab the ticket o,No biggie about Newark POE,j just type "Newark POE" on the search and it will give you different results of people that used that airport. All the best

Ok. ...
So I flew Ethopian air on 25th of Aug Lagos-Lome-Newark,at 33wks,they asked for fit to fly from port health (paid 1500,the nurse measure and wrote 28wks).
Was really praying the flight is good as there are no much reviews here about them.
The experience: was very satisfying,there was enough to eat and drink (though I bought snacks from Mr Bigs hide for one corner of my bag before boarding just incase,make hunger no kill me),flight was full from lome to Newark but I was good,the infight entertainment was ok....i was pleased and would fly them again.
POE:
Arrived Newark abt 7:30 American time,filled the agricultural form ,was on queue for abt 30mins.

Cbp: takes my passport and scans my finger,though we had to do that like 3 times over,don't knw what d problem was.
CBP: been here before?
ME: No,first time
CBP: looks through all my stamped pages,how long are u here for?
ME: 11 weeks (he looks up surprised) Yes,am here to have my baby
CBP : you having a baby? shocked where?
ME: Houston
CBP : why Houston you got family/friends there?
ME: good pricing on doc nd hopi talk
CBP: how much? (I gave him cost breakdown for doc/hospital and my total budget )
CBP : travelling alone?
ME : yes
CBP : u got work?
ME : yes and I told him what I do
CBP : and hubby?
ME: told him what he does and that he might join me later
CBP : when is baby due? (Told him)
CBP: will he stay till your return?
ME: depends on alot of other things
CBP : how much do you have?
Me: 2300 in cash and the rest in cards.
Stamps me in 6 months have a safe delivery and enjoy your stay.
Cleared my luggage and was going to agric,when busybody officer stopped and asked to see my passport,asked the normal questions and if I was sent to the room upstairs and why my bills was so cheap? I asked him if he'll like to my papers and that i wasnt paying with insurance but CASH,he shrugs and says you can go.At agric nothing was seized.
Took American Air to houston. ...Thank God and everyone here,the American dream is coming through. ..

If you can,Pls aviod Dr C and Prince George.I used PG in 2012 and my baby almost developed serious complications becos of their carelessness if not for God.
As for Dr C I didn't use him but I have a close friend who did and she didn't enjoy him at all.not a very pleasant elderly man.
The dr I used then was DR A.He"s half Syrian half Italian as was voted best Dr in PG for about 2years in a row back then.Last I heard of him,he's now affiliated to other hospitals apart from PG.
Very patient,pleasant and excellent doctor.

Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 4 by happytbaby: 9:21pm On Aug 27, 2016
Thanks dear. The issue is that I carried bags and sone were heavier than 50pounds which is the limit for Southwest cos Arik carries up to 66pounds. Grandma and I have rearranged eventually.
Southwest no longer opens in Nigeria, I already bought them to Chicago so when I ported to El Paso, I had to ask my sibling thats abroad to assist. We skyped and shared his screen so I could see all the options real time. You can try that.
