Biko question for the house, when you want to travel to the US after missionary journey, are you expected to carry the original receipts?

Or are coloured copies enough. Or black and white self. Thanks all
Any will suffice. The koko is to have something to refer to...any can be verified

@bbiz, firsty........ what's the baby's account for? I understand d opening of account for us is for safekeep of funds. Is that for d baby a requirement, regulation or

Lol@regulation grin

I'm only considering it because I would still end up opening a savings account for the child, home or abroad. So since there'll be other benefits, I may as well open it here before I leave and transfer the USD equivalent of the NGN savings in would have done back home.

Hope that clarifies grin cool

Are you feeling any discomfort or pains? Have you notified your obgyn? Is it big like preggie big?

Pls if you don't feel comfortable, return to your obgyn sharply.

In my last CS experience, the cause of the distended abdomen ended up being a clot sad & the matter wasn't funny which is why I took off with this pregnancy...but in your case, it's 5 months after so I think a clot is unlikely.

Otherwise, maybe you should try exercising. If you've put on a lot of weight, then tummy fat will reduce as you shed your body weight.

Hope this helps.

Regards.

U are supposed to start wrapping ur tummy right after c-section as that was what my hospital does as that helps d uterus to go back inside. U can start now even though it's kinda late ..it doesn't hurt to try ur luck now

If you read my post, you'll see where I stated they gave me at 36 weeks but they had to backdate cos their standard is 28 weeks.

Theirs supercedes all others cos it's med report from the federal govt

Ok.thanks

Meanwhile, you need to be fast in making up your mind for a doctor, get about getting correspondence and getting your visa application in order! You are already 29wks and need to book your appointment early enuf to avoid stories that touch. Try to put in for medical in your application and visit the us visit thread also on Nairaland for guidance on filling your visa form and all visa relating issues. Then calmly settle down and read especially part 1and 2 of dis thread for visa interview preparations and for other guidelines you will need. Reading is very important and cannot be over emphasised. You can come back to the thread to ask questions if you are confused, mamas here are always willing to answer your questions.
I wish you favour

I hear they are now near the toll is that true? This one klm/ air France always still sends people there, it may be worth while to go there first before going to the airport even though I have my doctors
