Sorry about the pain, but no need to freak out, all will be well. Right from the inception of my pregnancy i had cyst, infact it was the pain that led me to discover i was pregnant. I had 8 in my right ovary and 5 in the left, you can imagine my agony then, every night i end up in er, i had to spend the 1st 3 months on admission, the dr was waiting for me to say i give up, u can take the pregnancy out now, but i did not. It will be over soon, the pain is nothing compared to the joy of holding your baby is

As the pregnancy progresses, the cyst shrinks and the pain reduces. Take a lot of fluid

Let me interrupt the debate once again. For oakbend peeps, while paying for brown and associates bill for mother and child, ask for discount. Even though the bill is usually small, less than $150 most times, der is discount for self pay. I was given $113.50 for mother and child bill but I asked for discount and ended up paying $67.50. Firsttymum I know this info will be so so useful to you . This is the number I called 713 559 6929. Oya munch it asap lol.

Please how did you get your bill, was it mailed to you or did you have to call them to get it?

Lemme vouch for her a little! When I got Preggy I was torn btw OKC, Dallas and MD UNTILL I came here to discover about cheaper packages in Houston n after reading people stories with their host I made up my mind to stay solo... so that could be her case n just maybe she is confused!! Even as I've concluded arrangement n daycare service in Houston if I see a cheap package in my initial place I planned I will port and rent an apartment! So let's give her d benefit of doubt.. Meanwhile my scan showed I have cyst in my left ovary n I'm having minor pains d doc is positive but am freaking out n dr Google isn't helping at all

Let me interrupt the debate small.
I just bought my infant ticket in Airfrance office in Abuja for #25140. I called their US office and before I could say jack, d lady booked the ticket for $609 for round trip and told me to pay when I get to d airport. After some days, I called them back to cancel the reservation which they did, den someone went to der abj office and bot the infant ticket for me Yippee!
In summary, thou MUST not buy infant ticket from US office, thou MUST send someone to buy from their naija office.

I dont think the cost has anything to do with the location where the ticket is bought. I bought my babys ticket at houston airport in the US for $62 (emirates), d same lady who sold it for me at $62 first quoted almost $400 to me, with the excuse that the ticket has to be tied to mine, i refused on the ground that i bought mine months ago, and their site says infant ticket fee is 10% of the adult fare for the travel date, and besides am allowed to buy a one way ticket as am going to my home country. She tire for me oh, by force she sold it at $62 when she realized i knew what i was saying/doing.

chai.. I got both (mother & child's) bill from them by post after like 2weeks and I paid both online but I'm yet to get zero balance. Let me fire off a mail to the jennifer torres sef.. However, I didn't get any bill from the anesthesiologists oh. I called them like 3/4 times but they said my wife's name/details was not in their system. Anyone with the same experience..??

I got hospital bill which i paid the day i was discharged, few wks after i received babys bill by post and paid over the phone. I mailed the mentioned lady for my zero balance letter, which she sent to me, just that like i mentioned earlier no bill from brown & associate till date.

Congrats on a successful missionary journey #GODWIN



Three words for you YOU GET MIND!!!

CRAIGSLIST keeee!

Thats why i said its important you have someone on ground there to check it out for you if ur not there.

I have paid both hospital and babys bill,, its just bill for test done, ie if they did any. I didnt get any bill to that regards.

firsttymum:
call them... Their number is in that paper given at the first clinic visit. Then check tvegas post about paying bills...

Congratulations again.

By the way please, for those who used Oakbend, did you all get a bill from brown&brown, because till today (months after delivery) i have not received any bill from them oh. I only got babys bill.

I have since delivered my baby girl and returned home, however i would like to pass some accommodation information across, but please i advice, you need to have someone on ground in the US to assist you.
I have a cousin in houston, but she stays in a 1bedroom apartment, so i had to rent an apartment as i went with my mother.
I got my apartment tru craigs list, the lady got married, she and her husband bought a house, in order not to breake her lease and pay a huge sum, she was looking for someone to sublease, hence i got the apartment for 4 months @ $700 per month electricity included, as i said earlier, my cousin helped me check out the environment and the apartment about a month before i got to the US. All i paid was water bill, btw $25 -$30 per month, d lady was kind enough to leave me her bed, washer and dryer. I got cable so my mother does not die of boredom, (u can get a cheap tv from craigs list) comcast for about $50, FOR BOTH CABLE N unlimited INTERNET, so u can get any cheap line just for 3g qhen ur out of the house, i was calling Naija with my skype, viber, whats app etc with wifi oh instead of call card.
But if u want call card, try downloading rebtel
Advice, when u go to african/Asian stores pls pay cash or run ur card as credit.
Journey:
Flew Emirates, smooth journey, got to houston, d office did not even notice i was there, all d questions were adressed to my mum as shes a frequent traveller, stamped in without hassel.
