OK,so I arrived the US yesterday through Dallas. I flew Qatar airline at 34weeks and the POE was a breeze. My seat was changed in the plane, I was given a whole row(3seats) to sleep so I didn't really feel the journey was loooonng. Thanks to the air hostesses, and we were served jollof rice in the plane...I loved that! Had only about 4hrs layover in Doha. Arriving the Dallas airport was like arriving Oshodi market, the crowd was massive, I was allowed to join the B1/B2 visa holders queue right in front because I am a pregnant. We took turns to scan our passport, it got to my turn and I spent less than 3 mins doing that. The receipt was printed out and I was directed to get my bags after which I proceeded to Immigrations. The officer that attended to me only asked a few questions and stamped me in in less than 2 mins.
Officer: Hello ma'am. What brings you to the US this time?
I: I am here to give birth to my baby
Officer: Oh! You Pregnant?
I: Yes
How much do you have on you?
I: $$$$
Officer: Have you paid part of your bills?
I: No
Officer: Where would you be staying?
I: (showed her the address) The same place I stayed when I was here the last time
Officer: Oh, you have been here before?
I: Yes ma'am!
Officer: (Stamps me in and hands over my passport) Wish you the best then. Did you come with any form of food?
I: No
Officer: That's fine then. You can go.
It was really short.

PS: So I got into Dallas just for my host to tell me somebody called from Dr Stimage office that she is fully booked for July and can't accept me. I sent her my medical records and EDD by email last Monday. Now I have to start searching for a DR at 34weeks. Mamas that have given birth in Dallas,pls lead me cos I am too frustrated to search now. Thanks.
Hi, congratulations on your successful birthing. can you please email me Dr Stimage's and total cost break down, ( she seems like alot of people choice on here and other places) and also which Dr and hospital did you eventually use? can you also please email total cost and breakdown, DW is due feb next year, i would really appreciate all info elliottbabatunde@gmail.com thanks

So just as I promised to share my total bill and experience for my first Missionary Journey:

Hospital Bill - 3k for noncomplicated vaginal delivery (it has to be paid before discharge from the hospital to qualify for the discount package)

Dr fee - 1k for vaginal delivery (payment is due at initial doctors appointment)

Lab test - 158

Ultra scan - 120

Paediatrician - 300

Well Child Check - 95 (this was done at JPS hospital fort Worth)

LO birth cert. - 23 each (collected two copies)

American Passport - 165 (I got it by mail exactly 13days after applying)

I got my zero balance from the hospital by mail 3 weeks after discharge. I left US with LO on the 30th of March, got to Qatar and was hoping to get a transit visa to qualify for an hotel in Doha but sadly our Visa wasn't granted by the immigration, we had to stay at the airport for a 12hrs layover. Thank God it's finally over for now, I will hang my coat and hibernate till further notice. Thanks to everyone who has shared their experiences, bills and answered both my public and direct questions, God bless you all especially @chloe7 @temmyo ...@dyout Congratulations and thank you so so much for the assistance with LO letter of Consent and it was nice to meet your Madam a fellow Nairalander in diaspora.
Peace!
