Just spoke with Dr M office now...
This sudden price change na wa oh. I had gotten the price for centinella earlier but I think that st Fs may still be cheaper on the long run.

One advantage St f had for me is the no "surprise" charges...

The C hospital offers 3k for VD sans cost of paediatrician, anaesthesiologist and tests... so one is not sure of the total bill

Please can anyone who has used the C hospital tell us the total bill paid?

Thanks

Congrats mama!

To God be the glory,i had my baby boy yesterday at St Francis and Dr M was around to take the delivery .He was so professional and confirmed the hospital increment.The hospital was initially owned by Catholics,the Franciscan hence, the subsidized bill but was sold lately.
Wishing other pregnant mothers safe delivery. Thanks

Doctor fees :300 dollars for CS and 150 for vaginal

One more thing you don't get to chose your doctor ... It's whatever doctor is on duty that sees you .

You want to sell $4000 you bought from Travelex at N360 and sell at N400 per dollar? That means you make easy 160k gaming the system? Small time you will Shout politicians are thieves? Why won't dollar rate keep going up when economic buccaners like you keep gaming the system.
Hope when Buhari comes up with a policy that stops the selling of PTA to Travellers, you won't join the crowd to shout Buhari is bad, because you guys caused it!

Youre absolutely spot on.
1- i was made to pay for the hospital paediatrician visit when i went for baby follow up at the paediatricians office.
2- after leaving town, C hospital sent me a ridiculously huge bill (above 3k) for epidural/ anaesth.

They squeezed face @ d online boarding pass but guess it wasnt illegal just d naija gragra,with DW big belle dey let go even after lil raking. U must also take ur passport along&have ur funds handy.
My personal advice,go early in d morning like 9am,u will get it latest by 12pm. U can return home to freshen up b4 u return 4 ur flight,Dats wht ma wifey did. As per EURO i dont know.

Mille:
powermike9999 , Please sir, I have a few questions concerning travelex. I'm travelling tomorrow and I haven't even got the needed forex.

1. Is the online boarding pass generally accepted?

2. Is there any other requirement other than flight ticket and boarding pass?

3. My flight time is 8pm. Any suggestion on when to go so as to beat the long queue?

4. Any idea if they sell euro too and at what rate?

Anyone with an answer can also please contribute.

My dear trust God for favor. My hubby's colleague and his wife went to the embassy with just $3000 in their account for childbirth. The Vo gave them the visa but adviced them to build up the account before they go to avoid issues at the POE.

Please did anyone just board emirate from the u.s to Nigeria. I want to ask if they check in stroller&car seat for free plus diaper bag or its part of the baby's luggage.

Your stroller + car seat is free. Diaper bag too, it does not constitute part of baby's 23kg. Your diaper bag should not be checked in, it shld be baby's hand luggage. Also, give them the stroller+car seat at the door of the aircraft and request to av it bak in dubai if u av a long transit. This will make things easy for you.

How are the twinnies doin? I can imagine the victorious welcome that awaits them! All the best dear
