Thanks dear

Those Lufthansa pple are crazy sometimes. If ur hospital will collect money before they give u the fit to fly, don't bother. Just be at the airport early enough and collect from port health cos they might still insist u get from them.

Please help me interpret. I have asked hubby too and he came to the same conclusion as I did. But I shall wait una verdict.
That quote is incomplete. One cannot really say which gift is being referred to.
But the only thing I'm sure of is that they have a programme for poor people. Whether the programme is for Everybody cannot be seen from this excerpt.

Congrats to all the new mums, we give thanks to God for His Mercies.
Had quite a day today.
left Delaware today via train to Washington after booking appointments online at both the US passport office (there's none in Delaware) and the Nigerian consulate.
Had posted my $77 money order to the address requested as instructed on the Nigerian immigration site and printed out my acknowledgement receipt a week ago and had been firing prayers for God's grace on the sojourn.
So me n the LO woke up @4am, LO well fed and wrapped placed in car seat and off we go to the train station. Left the amtrak station at Wilmington, Delaware at 6.30am arrived washington dc at 8.20am. Took the subway to Washington DC US passport office arrived about an hour l8r. Within anoda hour baby's documents had been processed and we were asked to come for collection the next day, pleaded with the lady who attended to me that I needed to collect it that day as I don't live in DC and she goes like, OMG, you came all the way from Delaware! Not a problem, happy to do that for you ma'am. Pls come back today by 2.30pm for your daughters' passport.
Off we head to the Nigerian Consulate which was 20mins away by Uber. Me-een, DC traffic no be here!
We arrive there abt 11.30am, processed our documents within 30mins. About an hour l8r we were called for capturing, they really took care of those with kids, their service was really good, surpassed my expectations by far!
After that we were asked to wait for collection but nor told how long we would have to wait. Naija style. Was beginning to worry cos the lady at the US passport office told me to make sure to get there b4 3pm as they close at that time and as I said b4 DC traffic ain't funny. But suprisingly shortly b4 2pm the passports we ready. You need to have seen me grinning ear to ear.
Off we head again catch anoda uber back to the US passport office and collect our blue passport.
Both passports collected same day b4 3pm, could only be God!
By then this breastfeeding mama was starving we walked 6mins to good ol' Mcdonalds had a good meal and even had time to ride on the DC tour bus and see the sights b4 heading home to Delaware.
When I told my host my plan she was doubtful weather I could accomplish all in one day even I was too but I trusted God and He saw me through. Wasn't easy o, as I was alone but He was faithful.
.


Pls did u use cash or card to buy the money order?

Congrats on the birth of your baby.dont worry about anything for now cos u need the energy. There is nothing u can do about the bill except to ask for a payment plan if the cash u have can't cover. U need ur strength to take care of the baby. If u have manual breastfeeding pump, use it and see if u can get the milk flowing. Once she starts ducking, I believe she will gain weight. A beg rest now cos u need am.

Congrats! I pray for speedy recovery for you both, God who brought her out alive will keep her. I think your hospital should be cheaper BUT my friend's baby in a Maryland NICU hospital cost them $2700 per day asides drugs et al, she was self pay and this was 2014.

Thank God for safe delivery. And thank God you had this baby in US. They won't discharge her till she weighs above 2.5kg, that can take frm 1 to 3 weeks. I'm not trying to scare you but breathe easy and take each day as it comes.

As for the NICU bills, it's an average of $1000 a day to be inside that bottle, minus other treatment. But don't worry about it, payment plan will suffice after negotiations.
