Hello house,
i was referred to this house and i must confess that you guys are awesome.
i am in my first trimester and i wud like to have my baby in US. my husband wants us to apply for visa now (we havent travelled abroad) cos he feels i might not get the visa if there is baby bump and that i should state that i am going for vacation which i am not to comfy with it. i suggested tourism and medical but he said no.

2: we both work and we havent saved more than 500k and i was wondering if our bank account is very much important as we intend to attach our payslips?

should we apply now or wait till febuary or march 2016?

Please i need answers ooo.

If you apply now, you may not get free interview date till feb (not sure tho)

500k is small o! You need like 2m for this waka you are planning, not just for visa sake but to also pay your bills

Read up, you will be glad you did

My in law that was delayed at IAH for 10 hours in Oct gave birth a few hours ago at oakbend. ..She complained of serz pain yesterday and went to the docs not knowing it was false labour cause she was 40 weeks on the 5th of Dec, dey examined her only to find the baby's heart beat very low and had to do a cs immediately. ...Apparently, the baby's neck was wrapped around the cord...We thank God for both of them....she sent the pic but a lot of ppl may not be able to view it.

Thank God for the lives of both mom and son! Congrats!

Hi Phema, howi are you doing?

TX Phema!

Baby aspirin is good before 20wks of preggy as it helps to thin out blood which helps circulation of blood from mother to babies tiny vessels. It prevent blood clot. However it is discouraged after 20weeks of preggy so blood is not too thin and over bleeding occurs especially during child birth. After 20weeks baby's vessels are also big enuf for easy blood flow

My dear I've been on it before preg,, my fertility doc put me on it then n since my dads death I've been dealing with flaunting BP...

Hi ChyG, can u please give me the breakdown of hospital bill, contact and how to go about it. I'm considering Michigan. Pls I need u to give m detail; the flight from Lagos, POE questions, ur hospital bill. Thank you. Doc 4 POE. Contact. How do I make d payment to d hospital. Your urgent response will be highly appreciated. Thank you

Kudos to those posting their POE stories as soon as porting. Been jetlagged, sleeping like a pregnant woman and shopping away.

I flew BA with a nairalander, a planned journey but it was worth it. Was at travelex d previous day and was told I cld only get PTA wt my burden pass.

Got to d airport early, went straight to travelex wt my cash only to be told they don't av dollars. But was advised to check back in 2 hours but with no promise.
Went to check in my luggage, fit to fly was asked, I went to port health where I got one, though backdated to 32 weeks.

Went back to travelex and eventually got 3k, after divine intervention (pls shine ur eyes and never sign wout reading what ure to sign)

BA flight was good and half filled up, got a window seat. And was able to lay on three seats and relax. The only but was that I was starved, crap food but I ate cos I was really famished.

Got a wheelchair at Houston and was wheeled to d CBP, about 5 pple ahead of me on d que, and it was finally my turn.

CBP- what are you here for?
ME- childbirth
CBP- for how long?
ME- 2 months
CBP-Any family in Houston?
ME- No
CBP- how much do you have?
ME- 3,000 cash and over 3m in my accounts and I av the card
CBP- you wil have to go for secondary inspection so your data could be entered

Was wheeled for d second inspection wt my nairalander partner, we have the same accomodation, same doctors correspondence.
We waited for about 5 minutes and my name was called, I was actually surprised cos we met lots of people inside

CBP- why are you here
Me- childbirth
CBP- do you have doctors correspondence?
Me- Yes
Glanced at it,
CBP- how much do you have?
ME- 3, 000 cash and 3 million in
CBP (interupted) how much do you have in total for the childbirth purpose
ME- over 16000 dollar
CBP- keep ur receipt, do not accept medicaid bla bla bla
( nothing was checked apart from docs correspondence).

Waited for some minutes outside d office for my now turned sister nairalander friend, we were botth wheeled for our bags, no question was asked and nothing checked

Waited a while for soulcare driver, we were driven straight to dia restaurant where we were treated to a free hot plate of pounded yam and rich egusi soup! Never felt so satisfied with ameal, after such punishment from BA food.

Already enjoying my stay and yet to have a boring minute, met so many new mums and Nigeria preggos already. Now waiting for my docs appointment.

All glory to God for the favour galore.

Twingirls....thank God for safe journey. Wish you safe delivery in Jesus name

Hello Teehey, CHYG used oakwood Annapolis hospital now known as Beaumont Wayne Hospital and I intend using same soon. Just log on to their site and u will see the cost for self pay. They don't send emails out cos I have tried to plead with them. For the doctor, search for Dr Anthony Udo-inyang. He is a Nigerian and his prices are more than fair. When are u leaving?

God bless you all.

anizi:


Yes she can, once you have less than 6months before the visa expires, you can re apply. I renewed mine early august, i still had a valid visa till oct, once the new one is issued, the old will be cancelled.

PM a user here named (Afro).....Hes in Dallas now with DW where they had a boy and girl with one Dr. Esebede.

They flew BA and he said their experience going was very good. They used DFW as POE and He decided to come back to Nigeria to do the circumcision cause its very expensive in Dallas......Hope that Helps.

thanks so much for the info , Pls can you kindly get me the details of the person so I can reach out asap , especially that of the Doctor

Hello house, this is a very informative forum as I have been going through for days. I plan to be Houston for my baby first week in January and I am a bit confused about the accommodation to use as I want one that offers feeding, transport and nanny services and close proximity to Oakbend Medical center. Please what are the options I have based on people experience? Thanks

thanks for your response , how can I get in touch so I can ask much precise questions .

thanks

aolatunde00:


Olokings and myself both stayed in Dallas so you can go through our previous posts.you can ask more precise questions afterwards.

Lokings used emirates so his poe was Dallas fort worth.i used delta and Atlanta was my poe(no issues with both poe for the two of us).with delta you are not required to come with a doctor"s report meaning you can travel till quite late in pregnancy though its not adviced.
Oyinbo people usually don't circumcise Niger style so its more advisable to come back home to do it(with my first son,I had it redone in Niger so the innocent boy was actually circumcised twice).Besides its waaaay cheaper to do it in Nigeria.I paid $200 in the us and 5k in nigeria

thanks for your response , how can I get in touch so I can ask much precise questions .

thanks

Hello house, this has been an informative forum. I plan to be in Houston come next month but am confused on the accommodation options available especially ones close to Oakbend Medical center. I prefer the ones that can offer feeding, transport and nanny services.
This is my first time over there and will really appreciate responses from people experience, thanks

Yay!! At least you got it

Harsh how? If that's all she asked for. Pls post a proper transcript nah to help others coming behind you

I need your advice guys I applied for F1 visa last month but was denied the VO did not ask anything about my intended purpose this time all he pulled out was 2 years ago information as to why I didn't inform the VO that interviewed me that I will be having a baby in the US. We applied as a family then myself husband and son and it was a smooth interview cos we said we were going for vacation and other information asked was provided but nothing asked about childbirth and so we didnt inform them about it.however we traveled and had a baby. Again before the visa expired we travled again for vacation spent 3 weeks no issues at POE theofficer only checked my receip for1 child birth for my 1st visit During the F1 interview he asked what we went to do in the US I told him the truth vacation and delivery eventhough we have all renewed our visas without issues. So he concluded I wasnth honest then and denied me on section 214b. Now I intend to travel again sometimes next year for another delivery. What do you bus advice I can do. I still have my valid B1B2 visa which we just renewed.
