HealthRe: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by classichique: 9:42pm On Jul 13, 2021
Hello,

Please my 2year 8month old son is constipated. What can I give him that may cause quick relief and let him poop? He is crying from his sleep.

I have given him water, oranges, put an ointment in his anus, he has been stretching his legs unable to poop.

Also any recommendations on a good meal plan for that age?

Thanks for your response.


Akorkor:
I think you should always be consistent when dealing with US visa form filling. However, if there are some changes in your host, you should state it with explanation i.e if there is a space for explanation. All the best
TravelRe: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 6 by classichique: 3:19pm On Sep 12, 2018
Thanks for your response.

So should I write my previous dallas hosts details under

"Do u have any other relatives in the US"?

chibertha:
Irrespective of the fact that the Houston host has your last name which might be a coincidence
That said
Are you related ,
if yes state it as it is.
Let's say you just found out the person was there or just got there.

If not related state business.
That is what I would do.

Hello house,

Please I need some advice .....

I gave birth in dallas TX in 2013

After that I have visited twice with my baby and back to Nigeria.

I did drop box when my visa expired but I didnt travel with it

Now I want to visit again for child birth but I'm going to Houston this time. I am filling my form for drop box

I want to confirm, in the DS160 there is a question I answered in my previous forms "contact person in the US"
My Ans: I put the details of the dallas host and relationship: relative

Q: "Do you have any other relatives in the US"
My Ans: No

In my new form since am going to Houston now....at first i put the contact of the Houston host as my contact person in the US but when I got to the question of do u have any other relatives....I was thinking if i say 'yes they might feel but in my previous forms I said no.

And if i say no...they might think then how come I have a new contact this time. The Houston host and I have the same surname.

What do you advise pls?

What about how to go about d UK application? Do we have to pay d visa fee first den upload d forms, book appointment? Or what is d correct flow please ?
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 2 by classichique: 1:45pm On Jun 16, 2015
we just want to use our US travel as an oppurtunity to renew our UK visa and visit the UK for vacation. since we can only get leave once in a year.

what about my husband's inflow issue?
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 2 by classichique: 1:39pm On Jun 16, 2015
Thanks, we are actually travelling to the US and want to sleep over some days in the UK. how do i explain what we want to do? in the form?
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 2 by classichique: 1:28pm On Jun 16, 2015
Hello Justwise,

my husband and i want to renew our UK visa. we went for olympics in 2012 and got a 6months visa then. Now we want to apply for 2years.

i have the following questions.

1. we intend to stay in the UK for only 3 to 4days, would it not be some how to apply for 2 years but write in the form that we want to stay for only 3days?

2. We dont have any body to send us invitation letters, so we want to apply saying we are going to stay in a hotel, how do we go about the hotel reservation?

can we use a hotel reservation, where we are expected to pay on arrival for the visa application?

someone told me that this might not work and advised me to do a dummy booking, where he's asking me to pay 15k which he claims will be paid to the hotel and is non-refundable.

3. my husband has about 1.5M in his account buy has no steady flow of money (he doesnt earn salary every month) i have about 1.4M and have my salary hitting my account every month. hope my husband's account wont spoil our chances
His coy pays in cash alot of times, so his pay slip doesnt tally with his cash inflow.

What do you advise
TravelRe: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedure? by classichique: 12:43pm On Nov 16, 2013
Hello People, praise God I arrived Atlantaa safely yesterday morning via delta. No body even asked me 4 my fit2fly doc except while I was checking in my luggage in naija. Landed atlanta 5.30 am atlanta time. Got to d CBP officer whoo asked what I was in d US 4. And I replied 2have a baby. He scanned my visa and asked what I had told them @d embassy last mnth when I went 4my visa interview and I told him I toold dem same, 2have my baby.

He asked hw long I intended 2stay and I said 3month, he asked who wiill be respnsible 4me while in d US, and I replied that my aunty will take care of my feeding while I will take care of my medical bills. He asked if I had foood and I said yes I have garri. He replied saying do I have meat? And I said no. He asked hw much mooney I had and I said 9950. Everything I described abve was like 5mins. He den put my passport in d transparent folder and told a lady 2take me 4 secndary inspectin.

@d secondary inspection place, everything took like 1min. The guy asked me how much I had and I said I had 9950. He smiled and asked what happened 2d 50dollars 2 make it 10k, I just smiled back and shrug.

He said I shld make sure I keep all my recipts cos if I dnt pay, I'll probably nt get ova it all my life. He stamped me 6mtns and wished me the best.

All in all it was smooth,God favured me. picked my bags and waited 4my cnnecting flight 2dallas. Happily in dallas now. Thank God

Pls my husband is going 2apply 4his visa in dec. Shld he state that he is also staying in my aunty's house? Some1 advised hotel, but am nt sure of d logic behind saying hotel.

TravelRe: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedure? by classichique: 3:51pm On Oct 30, 2013
Thanks everyone for your answers.

Am going 2dallas so I feel houston/dallas (united) is better than atlanta/dallas (delta)

My doctor already told me that he will do no such thing of giving me a fit2fly with a wrong no of weeks, so......

Anyways, I checked united website and saw this

United: No restriction b4 32weeks
In d last month, u need a doctor's letter signed within 24 to 72hrss of travel, indicating 1) due date 2) departure and arrival destinations and dates and 3) that travel doesnt pose a health risk.

So maybe the guy I spoke to desnt know what he's saying?

Babababy: Yea,like the ladies have rightly stated ,fly delta. But if indeed it's a must you fly United , you can have your doctor examine you and give you a fit to fly paper for 32 weeks. Just make sure you don't pop before landing in Houston ,cause they will then sue you for misinformation.

@Phema, no my husband doesn't have a valid US visa, neither of us have been 2d US b4. I have actually been refused US visa in 2011 when planning 2go 4 a wedding.

I have been 2 the UK, shengen states, dubai

Phema: @classichique, congrats. Thank God the CO didn't notice the 20k balance.

I've some questions though. Does your husband have a valid US visa? what is your travel history like? Have you been to the US before now? If no, have you been to other countries? Where?
TravelRe: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedure? by classichique: 12:01am On Oct 24, 2013
Hello House, kudos 4d enlighteningment on dis topic. I have been studying this thread since I decided 2have my baby in america and I have a testimony 2share :-)
I went 4 visa interview last week and was granted. I had gathered some money 2geda in2 my account when the interview was close so I can present a fat statement since the money intended 4my travel wasn't already in my account.
Unfortunately, I printed my account statement when I had transferred all the money back 2d sources I got them from not knowing that on d day the statement is printed, the present balance in d account will be stated on the first page, summary part of d bank statement. When I printed my statement I had only 20k in my account and I went with this statement 2d embassy.

The consular officer asked me the ff questions:
Q: why do u want 2go 2d united states?
Me: 2have my baby
Q: so u'r pregnant?
Me: yes
Q: are u married?
Me: yes
Q: are u in touch with any doc in america?
Me: yes I am
Q: so d u have any documents 2show correspndences with the doc?
Me: yes and I show him a letter frm d doc stating my first appintment
Q: hw much is d delivery going 2cost?
Me: cs: 10k dollars normal: 7k dollars
Q: so do u have dis mney?
Me: yes I do
Q: can I see ur statement of account
Me: yes and with shaky hands, I hand him my bank statement that shows on d first page that I have only 20k in it. He looks @it line by line and hands it back 2me

He advised me not 2stay longer than 6months in d US but incase I have 2 4 whatever reason ssuch as birth complications, I shld make sure I call 2let them know

He hands me the collection letter and off I go :-)
