Come to think of it guys. .
It is safe to say that NL is addictive. .
Can't imagine within a space of 11 days I have been on the air for 4 days outta it. .yet the first thin I do when I check in (whether into the aircraft or hotel is "how can I access wifi) where is not available I roam my line on data not caring the cost.
Just so I'd keep up with the nairalanders.

It's high time I get a cure for this. ...maybe get another hobby. .lol
Knowledge us power yo. ..

# yawns. ... 02:40 am and I'm still peeking at the thread knowing I still got a second leg of 7 hrs flight tmro mrng after a whooping 14hrs just concluded. ...

@firsttymum I think you may need to boot me off this place with a 2 weeks ban to go on sebaticle..

Oga na tafia dey worry you *runs away* tongue

Just kidding o. Me sef, I read the thread at least twice a day. It's quite addictive and "infotaining" especially with the sorta characters and humour we have on here.

yes i am reading. asides time constraint. you should remember some of us
are newbies here and only stumbled upon the thread when pregnancy has progressed

to read part 1 &2 of this topic takes weeks.. and who knows baby fit come while still reading posts in naija.. so efforts become wasted

am not asking to be spoonfed. i only want t.o know if its not a crime to say at embassy, we r going to state A. get d visa and go to state B. if POE officers wont be asking y

any1 who truly understands my plight should kindly answer. we havent applied for visa cos we r still reading... and time is def not gonna wait

thanks



You can use Google to make your read faster. For example you can Google "nairaland+give birth in usa+Houston poe" or "nairaland+give birth in usa+colorado+hospital" or whatever you want to search really. In my opinion, you get results faster that way and then you can ask for whatever you truly can't find [s]so you don't incur the wrath of hormonal preggos [/s] (who are otherwise very nice and helpful). Most people on here don't mind helping you but only after you have shown evidence of trying to help yourself cos really most of the questions asked have been answered previously.

Secondly, I used Dr. Fagbohun's (Oakbend, Houston) correspondence at my interview and at Dallas POE even though I was going to use a doctor and hospital in Dallas. The doctors I contacted in dallas don't commit to you or give you any sort of documented correspondence until they see you so a girl had to do what a girl had to do.

I'd say you have a right to change your mind as long as you pay all your bills and have your zero balance handy for next time.

I hope this helps.

Hey ppl, i can finally post my experience. I travelled at 32 weeks to Florida and was tempted to move my flight to 34 weeks but hubby didnt agree.,anyway i had my gift from God on the 1st of August. For those of u ppl planning to travel late, I would strongly advise not to risk it at all cus it isnt worth d risk at all. My water broke at 35weeks 1day and dats when I had my baby. I can only thank God cus i was scared of having a premature baby who would need d assistance of NICU but that was not necessary. I will ans any question u guys have for me cus my story is a long one..(my BP was also very high at 33weeks and d medical care was just perfect)...

Kai! Babes cheekiness won't do you any favours
You've got to help yourself I'm afraid, everyone got preggers at some point and hit the thread for info.
Wait and see, until the next person asks the same questions you've just been given an answer to, for not taking the time to read through, and then tell me you don't catch feelings

My Edd was on the 2nd of August based on scan did at 9 weeks. I don't know which kpekus nailed it (according to Nef) as I wasn't even sure of my LMC.
After 2nd August,I was scheduled for induction on the 7th but i called and cancelled it a day before 7th seriously kabashing and building up my faith that labour will come before then. As I had my other kids without inducing and on time.
I started having mild contraction on the 7th, got to the hospital on the early hours of 8th. The labour was not progressing and induction was the only option since I was already 41 weeks.
I declined epidural initially...but I had to literally begged for it when the pains became unbearable but still I wasn't given one cos my palette was low according to them
But in all.. I muscled it out as a true daughter of Zion bringing forth a 9.8lb baby boy... Phewww

My rating for HNWC will be 4.5****. Their nurses are nice and friendly. Clean rooms,nice food but poor in freebies
My baby was given only 15 diapers,1 small size wipe,8 Similac,thermometer ,pacifier
I was given rubber basin... Sit bath grin
I complained to my dr Glenn about the $1k pediatrician fee and I got a called from him yesterday that he has spoken to the CEO .... So hopefully something will be done about it. Yet to get my bills but will relate it once it's sorted

Forgive my long post...

Congrats on ur bundle of joy

I will like to say a big thank you to all NL mamas and papas for ur contributions to d forum. I hv been a silent reader with my jotter and pen and dis really helped me. My Poe was dallas. Flew BA and requested for a wheelchair. Wasn't given in nija but it was no stress though. Got a gud seat and flight was interesting. Getting to Heathrow requested for d wheelchair but dey tactically didnt give me, was so stressful. When I boarded d flight to dallas I ensured I made proper arrangement for wheelchair and dis saved me a great deal. Landed dallas 13th August.

Cbp: u declared more than 10k and how much
Me: yes and told him d amount
Cbp: u declared food what items
Me: my local fud
Cbp were are u staying
Me: rented an apartment
Cbp: y
Me: child birth
Cbp: are ur other children American citizens
Me: no
Cbp: ok go 2 immigration to fill d form to declare ur money and agric

Thank you Jesus. That was all, no secondary inspection no food was seized, no document was checked though I had all my burden of proof. it was just like 5 mins with cbp. My advice; say the truth. Get ur jotter and pen, u will find every info u need on dis thread if u can read also request for wheelchair coz it was a saving grace for me. Resting at dallas b4 seeing doc Glen next week for my appointment. Will give more info as event unfolds.
