[color=#770077][/color]DW had our baby in HNWMC

We got the BC in 3 days for $21.30
US Passport in 2 days for $175

Airbnb is the most common but DW used intown suites. Our bills for a double bed studio for 8 weeks was $2496 (We were refunded the tax we paid for the 1st 5 weeks). If you get a 1bed it will be less.
12 Weeks might be too long but then, it depends on on your overall plan. You can get the travel docs for your baby in 2 - 3 weeks.

At HNWMC we were billed for both Pathology & Pediatrician services.

The cost of your baby ticket should be 10% of the current fare for an Adult. Ofcourse the cost will depend on the Airline.

I hope this helps.
Hello, please how did you go about getting the birth certificate and passport? Could you throw more light? My wife will be delivering in a few days at HNWMC. Awaiting your response. Thanks

Great..Already wanted to make an order online before seeing your post..showed it to wifey and she does not seem to like it being that it works with electricity..Do you think it is 100 safe using it in a country like Nigeria?

Thanks

My sister has been using one for her son for 5 months and has had no complaints. It’s actually a lifesaver! Lol

Hi @Cretaceous


After the birth of your baby, someone from birth records office will come to give you the birth reg form (this is usually within 24hrs of the baby's birth). Once filled, hand it back to the person and advise them you want it sent immediately as you need it expedited.

As we were told at the time, the birth reg office will send this information to their Austin Office (thru thier internal system) at The Texas Department of Health, Bureau of Vital Statistics in Austin (http://www.houstontx.gov/health/BirthCert/). In my estimation, it takes about 1 - 2 Business Days for it to be confirmed on the bereau of Stats system.
(Please note that if your baby comes on a weekend, the birth records office of HNWMC will send the baby's birth details to Asutin the next business day).

After being discharged, we called the HNWMC birth records office if it had been sent, once they confirmed it had been sent, we went to pick it up 2 business days later. Check Address up (Houston Downtown) on website below
(http://www.houstontx.gov/health/BirthCert/contact_us.html)

Some other pple do pick-ups at court houses.......I'm not sure how one can go about that.........I hope someone can shed some light on this.

In all, we got our baby's BC in 4 Business Days


For the Passport:
To get it expedited, you have to book an appointment at the Passport Office in Houston (Downtown Houston) ......this can be done over the phone or online. Details can be found here:
https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/requirements/where-to-apply/passport-agencies/houston.html

However, please do note that you might not get a an appointment for a date that will suit your travel plans as this is a busy period for them. So what they'll advise you over the phone is that you come to their office 3 business days before your travel date. (evidence of travel and other details you will need to be presented to them ......information on these are on that website)

We went 3 business days before our travel date and got the passport in 24hrs (1business day).


I hope these my plenty stories will be useful.

Do you have travel history? have you been to other countries like the UK? Schengen etc?

Is the conference related to your work?

Having the conference in a different city from the vacation doesnt matter at all, you might have family in Newyork or prefer to shop and sight see in newyork

Have you passed your EDD. Hope you are walking around and doing little strollings if you are staying in a building with stirs try walking that too it helps move the baby downwards. I almost got scared too when Baby was too relaxed inside. Dancing too could help. The latter shouldn’t be a problem you could shift your departure.

You can ask to be induced.

I scheduled an induction at 39 weeks for my son.. didn't wait for labor to start

P.S. Again, it depends on the doctor.. I was successfully with my son for induction in Houston while for my daughter (had her in Chicago), my doctor refused and asked that I wait for labor to start

Hello my good people. I've been following this thread for days now and thanks to all the contributors for sharing your tips and transcripts. (Agents for use me buy land). Please how do you apply for an expedited B2 for birth. And can I apply for a B2 while DH applies for a B1/B2. I do have a B1/B2 meant for vacation. I would risk it but with a change of intent letter but I'm afraid of POE people after reading what happened to that lady here. EDD is mid October but I need to travel way ahead of the EDD because of the nature of my pregnancy. Thanks in advance.

Your B1/B2 visa, was it used for its intended purpose ie visit? If yes, then send a change of intent to fulfil all righteousness. However if you were pregnant when you applied and you were asked if you were pregnant and you didn't disclose it, you might have some issues when renewing.

First of all get all your correspondence and yhe funds needed then take it from there!
