Only one that comes to mind now is Holy Family Hospital. I think with an all inclusive package of $4800. You should check them out.

Probably because there's no one travelling at that time for now. But hang in there.

Thank you v.much, I'm indeed grateful.

0016023445407 direct number for an appointment at MIHS

Lol I'm not asking for their contact details. I've already spoken to them though and they have told me all that has to be done. They said since I'm an April 2015 mum I can pay closer to the date. Like in February or March of next year. Will leave in February with my mum so we can do baby shopping together, then we head off to Phoenix like mid March to start prenatals there.

I was just asking if they will be any mums on here at MIHS during that period? Just so I know I won't be the only naija head then lol.

Oluwamabelfunmi: hello everyone. i have bin a silent folower of this thread. thanks for all d updates, views n al. please wud nid your views on d ffg:
i planned using mihs in dec. i have d appointment wit financials only, is it ok to present dat at POE witout dr appointment? .please for dose dat traveld recently with financials only, how did u do it?
then howz POE at phienix like or is NY better?. then which airline is ok if travelling at 35/36weeks witout any stress.
please your swift response wud be highly appreciated. God bless you all

I would advice you to use Delta Airlines, they don't give you stress if you're 35/36wks gone. I was 36+2days when i travelled and all i did was to give them my Doctor's fit-to-fly certificate in Lagos during check-in. All you need is a fit-to-fly report from your Doctor. Please stay away from Qatar Airways if you're 35wks +1day even. Then concerning the POE, i'm not aware of both Phoenix or newyork's cos i came through Atlanta, but i didn't have to show any document because they didn't request for it.
Hope this helps.

dsaynt:

Actually it doesnt take that long to get the birth cert. Usually an official would come to the hospital and give you the neccessary documents to fill and if u pay for expedited you'd get it in like 8 working days and if not you'd get it in like 15 working days. Passport works the same way, pay for expedited and you'd get it within 2 working days to 8 working days. Next in Naija visa. This would take approximately 2 weeks using an agent. If you are in Atlanta or New York it would be faster.

With expediting everything, within 4 weeks after birth you can be back in Naija

Please can you help me with more details on how to expedite your baby's Birth certificate, Passport and Nigerian Visa.

Thanks

Ibtisam24: 0016023445407 direct number for an appointment at MIHS

@ibtisam thanks for your help, I called them but the lady told me I need to come and pick the maternity package plan after that it will take 2or 3weeks to make an appointment. I want to know are using mihs , what are the steps you take to make appointments. Thanks

Hello everyone, I am new here but found out I am not new to nairaland . I actually became a member in 2007! I completely forgot and see my profile name sef . Pls how do I even change dat.

Let me go straight to d point. I have read dis thread from page 1 to 109 and find it quite informative, and I have a book where I took down valid points. So now I know where I wanna go, how much to spend, wat to do and so on. But here is the tin (pls be patient) I have so much to ask but I'll try to ask in bits

So I do not have a visa and no travel history, I am married with two lovely angels. I am not even pregnant. We plan to have anoda baby and plan to make it happen btw Oct and Nov, I mean get pregnant (o yes God decides wen but He gave us wisdom to plan ). We want to all get a visa cos we want to go on vac with my kids den ultimately give birth to number 3 in the us. Vac dis year den birthing next.

So pls how do we make dis happen?
Wat advice can u give for us to be successful at the interview? I have not even filled the form. Just being as proactive as phema
The main aim is to birth in d us when d time comes, vacation is to 'clock' in d visa as earlier advised by the gurus on dis forum
Mamas dat got a visa while preggy how many years visa did u get?

Let me stop here for now.
Pls uchetobi, babababy, phema, vivianobas, mrsbee and all d guru (can't remember all d names) come to my aid. I need all d advice I can get. Don't tell me to read the thread cos I have already done dat! I am looking for a more personalized answer for my situation and those in my shoes.
Waiting!!!

When you get there and u are thru with financials you can then go and ask for ur appointment to be fixed for earlier than 2wks and hopefully if you are graced u might get an appointment in 4 or 5 days. I'll be there on the third of November. When are u planning to come. And have u got ur appointment with financials yet

Varvara:

Almost a month 1st interview was on july 15 while we were called on August 13. However there was 2 days public holiday in july

Phema:

Thanks Debrixxy! How was Delta on your return leg? How much did you pay for an infant? How many stopovers did they have?

I just had my baby last week, i've not returned yet but i did call them even before i gave birth and i was abt $300 i think

@debrixxy congratulations , am so happy for you. How are you and baby doing? Please which hospital did you use and what is the total cost.

The flight was okay for me, no stress whatsoever; i just watched movies until like 2am and slept until about an hour b4 touch-down(using the restroom wen i had to). I'll advice you select an aisle seat for more convenience. I didn't go with any foodstuff but my mum came with some 3wks after and they didn't give her any stress. My stomach wasn't very big, but i declared my intentions right from my visa Interview. Why didn't you declare your intentions? In my opinion, that's the best thing to do. At the POE(ATL) i was asked my purpose, duration, how much i had with me, final destination and address, and was stamped in for 6months. My mum said they didn't even check her food stuff or asked her any questions, they just stamped her in with no date.

I didn't use a hospital, i used a birthing center.

I also had a similar problem but a different error and needed to edit my form after booking appointment twice. I already asked LagosNiv by email and they responded that I refil a new form and print it out then take it along with the confirmation letter for the interview. You will need to explain why to the interviewing officer. That was the response from them but I think if you haven't exhausted your appointment schedule times, you can refil and get a new confirmation with the new bar code number. Goodluck
