lwkmd!
in Brazil, CS is the way to deliver. you have better luck trekking from lagos to lake chad in 2 days than scouting for an ob/gyn and a hospital that would deliver you by VD.

My dear I understand you but it's not easy going through some of those threads. I'm speaking personally. My work schedule is crazy I'm a pregnant doctor on call every other day, I was even admitted recently cos of stress at work. So please just pity me this one time and let those who can answer me- answer. I'm so sorry for the inconvenience I'm causing but please help me.
Thanks

1)BA looks good with luggage allowance for infant 1 bag@23kg and ticket fare is reasonable for my travel period.
2)Its multiple destination.going to Ohio for a few weeks before heading to NY.

Thanks.still clueless about pm. lipsrsealed
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 3 by vcole: 11:29am On Jan 08, 2016
@bisoye, you can do a return ticket for NY and then local to Ohio and back.

Ok so who will read and post on ur behalf?

U don't wanna know how many Dr's are here... But that's not an excuse...
It's like mbbs
U r on call, u have postings, u have tutorials and u must b awake and alert for lectures, clerk and present ur patients... There's no excuse why ur patients aren't clerk's no matter how tight ur day was.

IF ANYTHING DOCTORS ARE THE BEST AT MULTITASKING... COS OF THE TRAINING.
It's same thing here.
We can help with some answers... But there some questions only you can read up and get answers to. Somethings are really over flogged.
At least search the specific topic u want answers to. (The search option is very helpful)

1. For poe it's different for everyone.. But lax isn't as bad as Iah. Search for lax poe and read people's experiences.... Its gonna b hard for someone to type her experience again.
2. Nope
I was more than 32 weeks when I flew

3. With ur work schedule I believe u can make out time to get hustle for pta (stanbic) or buy from black market.

Pls make out d same time to read. These cbp officials are not smiling. Gather all the required ish
Thanks for your advice ma'm. Everyone's story is different i guess. I agree there are people here busier than I am and still make out time but I was only speaking personally(based on I am going through). May be cos I'm still early in my first pregnancy and my symptoms/sickness have been off the roof. Hopefully when all that settles , my multi-tasking will begin again. I appreciate your response and corrections. May God bless you. Thanks again

you are starting really early so you shouldn't exactly be so worried. you are also planning on taking a trip to Alaska before you go for delivery right?so POE really shouldn't bother you per se, since you are going on a vacation for that trip.

Lol my dear it's the only place I have family o. Funny thing is their whole package for spontaneous (vaginal )delivery is 2500 dollars without epidural. So they are affordable. I don't know anyone in Houston o lol

Yes yes you are right. I wouldn't have had to go if they were responding well and sent me all my burden of proof via email. But it's what it is. Thanks a lot. I appreciate your response

i'm a doc as well, my work schedule was call duty every friggin day for 3 months when i was preppin for my missionary journey. I still read. You have to read, if not you would make decisions based on limited information and then you can end up regretting later.

Thanks a lot. I've started reading as we speak. Just remembered I can actually just search words like "LAX" and a lot has popped up. BA (their affordable flights )goes through Houston when you are headed to Alaska so I'm avoiding BA. My best bet is AF/KLM.

Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 3 by Nobody: 11:59am On Jan 08, 2016
Hello Everyone in the House,

Happy New Year to you all!

I and my wife has been waiting to see the positive result that we have been expecting and the result just show up positive and she is fully loaded now with our second child, i want her to give birth the in USA and NY preferable. I do not intend to travel or go to the interview with her but She, my daughter, and probably her sister or anyone family member that would be of an assistance as work schedule as her EED period work will not allow me to jet out of the country.

I don't know anyone there, she has never been there we have made quite few travel holidays outside the country but never been to USA.

Please can any share with me guidelines on how to go about it.

How to obtain the VISA, Travelling Expenses and Cost that would be associated in the hospital in USA, also process on how the new baby would have the America Passport.

Please i will appreciate any form of assistance. I am making early preparation so that it will be hitch free and stress free base on financial budgets.

Thank You so much...

Please i need to make an enquiry, I , my wife and my mom were issued the us visa at the US Embassy Abuja, we went on the intent of my wife giving birth in the US. Now the question is how long will it take for the visas to come out, we went on the 31st DECEMBER 2015 and today is Jan 8th, we have bought ticket already for end of January and the visa is not yet out. I Tracked it and its like Administrative processing... Anyone with that experience should please share and when it eventually came out.
They have had delays printing visas since December. Your case is not peculiar. The only advice I can give is to pester them with emails/calls. Hopefully sbody will pity u and move you guys to the front of the queue

Hospital + accommodation + trpt

It may be cheaper than this Alaska Waka o...
We heard stories of mamas that ended up spending more because they adamant on staying with their family.

U have to consider "in case of emergency" money too

Good luck

Well, they said I wouldn't need doctors referral as that's inclusive in their package. They said their midwives will take the delivery but if there's any ish the doctor would be only a call away if needed. Then I have to pay 500dollars for pediatricians fees. Price not including tests or scan. I intend to go with test and scan (I read that on this thread).... Meanwhile flight is like 1829dollars (klm), I would find out more when I make the first trip. It sounds too good to be true lol

Please one more thing my lovelies. I read through the thread some people said they contacted the embassy that they were going to go and give birth in the US and they got that genetic email. Some people on the thread said it's not necessary if you have used your visa before for visiting. Please I got my visa before I got pregnant through Dropbox. I've gone visiting on it and I'm going visiting again before I go for delivery... Do I need to send the embassy a change of intent email or inform them in anyway? Cos I know B1/B2 actually includes tourism medical and conference as long as you pay all your fees out of pocket. Do you think the email is entirely necessary?
