Infant luggage allowance is one piece of 23kg.

One extra piece of baggage in addition to your usual baggage allowance, regardless of cabin class. This extra piece must be 23kg (50 lb) or less, with total dimensions (length + width + height) not exceeding 115 cm (45 inches)

Time to give back on our second POE and child birth:

DW got fit to fly from a Govt hospital and also did port health at the airport, paid 1500 Naira at MM1
On the 2nd of March, DW flew Qatar airline with 14 months super active son and mom to Dallas, had a lay over in Doha accompanied with a hotel.
Got to Dallas about 15:25hrs

DW: Good day sir,
CBP: U welcome to America, how was ur flight?
DW: Fine thank you
CBP: can i have your passport?
CBP: what are u here for?
DW: to have to baby, (CBP was surprised)
CBP: How much do u have
DW: $8k
CBP: Make sure ur pay ur bills and keep your receipts, gave her passport without stamp

While exiting the terminal another CBP intercepted her can i see your passport? DW gave him her passport then told her to follow me (secondary inspection).

CBP: What are you here for?
DW: to have my baby and vacation
CBP: why are you always coming here to give birth? infact i will write to the embassy.
DW: told him it is not a crime to give birth here.
CBP: How much do u have on u?
DW: $8k
CBP: how much is your bill?
DW: about $6k
CBP: That is too little
DW: because i am a self pay patience. Now asked him (CBP), How much did u pay for your childbirth
CBP: about $12k
DW: Because your are using insurance right?
CBP: oh...yea that is true
CBP: stamp her in for 6months.

After getting Tarrant county temporary ID, becos DW sis leaves there. However, she was able to get two Doctor's appointment, check up and also paid for the VD hospital & Doc's fee at (JPS) $4,500.

During one of her routine check up they noticed she has High blood pressure and wanted to admit her, she refused and signed against medical advice. DW told them she knows the reason, that she needs to rest a little. Thereafter, the result was okay.

On the 28th of march the hospital Director saw her records and called her to come for delivering of the 30th which was against what she agreed with the other doctor's to come at 37 weeks. She went on the 30th and was 3cm dilated, she was given oxytocin which now helped her dilated upto 5cm for more than 7hrs. On the 31st of March DW gave birth to twin girls miraculously at 36 weeks plus 2 days, she gave birth thru VD when they were about taken her into the theater for CS. DW and Lo's are doing great, they were discharged on the 2nd of April.

i give thank to the Almighty God who made it possible. No Pre-nursing, No NICU, No CS, No Epidural. Baba God thank you.

Expectant mom, Your case shall like the Hebrew woman in the Bible.

Breakdown of the other bills, will be coming in soon. paed, lab work etc

Good day beautiful pple,

Any Dallas bound Mama for Late July or early Aug

I will love to know how to shop for reasonable ticket from Abuja to Fort Worth Dallas. The ones that I am seeing are too expensive, a little below 2mil for myself and my 2year old boy.

I dont know if there is other cheaper hospital that anyone on this thread has used, I used Medical Centre of Plano in 2015 and had emergency CS, I was charged over 11k.

TWoods:


So why do you need a visa to the United States then? You're a joke dude.

Its absolutely nauseating to see how dishonesty has become so endemic in the Nigerian society that speaking against it has become equivalent to "forming saint". I wish i could take back all those hours wasted praying for Nigeria.

Happy Sunday 2 u all. I read someone saying that by 34weeks n 1 day, airlines calculate that as 35wks. Meaning if someone is 35wks as @ d time of ur trip,is calculated as 36wks. How true pls??

anonymousmum:


You need to go to the US Embassy website to book an appointment.
Cost is US$50
Not sure what you mean by for the Fort Bend county. Others may be able to help you on this request
Google form DS - 3053 that is the form you are looking for

ozycy:

Cc oppaxy
The notary form is actually free. Heard you can walk in without appointment. But it's safe to book before going if you don't want stories.

Congratulations dyout

Kween2014:
Lmao...I know right.

I am an October mum too using Dr Z and Oakbend in Houston. I used Dr La and WHMC in 2014 when i had my daughter. Hoping for an equally awesome experience at Oakbend this year.

Terese69:
Hi Iphie,

I'm a Dallas bound Mama hopefully mid/late August.

I had my daughter at Baylor Scott and White, White Rock Lake, Dallas in 2015. My entire medical bill all-inclusive was $7,031 but for a vaginal delivery. Don't know about CS but you can find out.

No idea about tickets, I'll be flying from Lagos and I haven't started looking seriously. Have you found cheaper options yet?

What accommodation options are you looking at?

iphiechuks:
Hello Dear Terese69, thanks so much. Did u use epidural? I will also be heading to Dallas Mid August pls let's keep in touch.

Concerning ticket, I have not started searching seriously.

anonymousmum:


Hi Ozy, just to be clear, the form is free, but is the notary service at the embassy free?

happyday:


You gave up on Nigeria already?
