Travel / Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 6 by Diok92: 8:03am On Feb 21
Drugkills:


Thank you for your very well detailed explanation. I will like to confirm if the $300 should be paid before going for visa interview or this can be done after the visa has been approved.

Hello

So Dr Z’s bill depends on what service he is rendering to you
Vaginal delivery - $2600
CS - $2800
You would’ve paid $300 to them before your arrival which would be deducted from his total cost

Hospital bill, also depends on either vaginal or CS
West Houston - (vaginal delivery $3600 and CS $5000)
Epidural or spinal for CS - $2000
If you are having a CS and spinal fails, it could be converted to general anaesthesia which cost more

Paediatrician - depending on who is on call the day of your delivery
Dr C billed us $550 for baby check and circumscision.
He saw baby twice before we were discharge.
We also visited his practice (Sunrise Paediatrics) twice before we left the US.
Each visit cost us $100 each.
We also had new born blood spot test (one as an inpatient in the hospital on Day 2 of life and the second one between 2nd and 4th week of life). This is to check inborn error of metabolism and some other disorder that could be managed if detected early like cystic fibrosis and Heamoglobinopathies)
We were not billed for the first one as it was part of the initial hospital bill.
For the second one we paid $50 when we went to the hospital to get the blood test done.

Hearing test cost $326

Eye test is included in the baby check that the paediatrician would do on your little one.
An ophthalmoscope will be use to check the red flex.

I hope this answers your question

All the best.♥️

I have the scan result already

From your scan your right ovary is polycystic and you need to carry out hormonal profile test before they can make a finally diagnosis.

Depends on your hormonal levels.

Good day Sabi Mama. I have been off this wonderful platform close to 2 years now. Let me quickly confess my ingratitude to everyone. This is the platform that contributed so immensely to my wife TTC journey, before we made headway after ttcing for good 3 years without result. Even though what could have been the greatest gift n joy to my wedlock ended in stillbirth due to care-free attitude of the doctor n nurses that tended my wife. The trauma and shock from the incidence as well as struggle to make ends meet contributed to my inability to come back to thank everyone n share our TTC journey to pregnancy. To cut the long story short, I'm using this medium to thank everyone who always spare out time to listen, encourage, share experience and give godly advise and counsel on this platform. I pray God to reward us all accordingly and meet each one of at our very point of needs. Amen. Also, I want to seek clarification on another issue we are experiencing now from your pool of experience. My wife had another miscarriage last year November and her period resume immediately in December after D&C. She had her period in January too, but February own was late in coming. So we decided to take PT which came out negative, but he was having this kind pregnancy symptoms, so we decided to visit our doctor. He requested blood PT, to our surprise the result was positive. A week after she started seeing spotting of blood n we went back to the doctor who asked us to do scan,but the scan show no sign of pregnancy. The doctor requested for blood PT again which was also positive. Then he decided to place her on progesterone and other drugs. After we got home the spotting and bleeding continue but very light. So we decided to go for scan again on our own, but alas, it's negative. We did urine PT it's positive. For like two weeks now the spotting and bleeding has stopped, but the last Urine PT we did was negative. We're just confused now, even the doctor is confused too n advise that we take our mind away from pregnancy n we should start another round of treatment for TTC. This is our case. Has anybody experience this before. Kindly, advise. Meanwhile, the scan show no sign of infection, but prior to this time whenever we babydance after about 3 to 4 days I will start to notice signs of yeast infection. Please, I'm just so confused now. Thanks for reading through.


Had a similar experience where pt and blood test where positive but scan could not pick anything. Though I wasn’t spotting, the doctor ensured I did several scans and beta HCG to rule out ectopic pregnancy.which he finally ruled out ectopic pregnancy and concluded that it was pregnancyof unknown location.

Good afternoon mummies, please help me to interpret this results after two miscarriages to the last one was this January at 7weeks.

From what I can see, your progesterone might be low for day 21 which might be what is causing the miscarriages. Please when next you are trying or confirm pregnancy ask your doctor to place you on progesterone supplementation.

If she's confirmed not to be pregnant she can take M2tone to restore her cycle

Good evening, I want to ask. Is M2tone a contraceptive like birth control?

I did pelvic scan, it says no retained product of conception.
Thanks


Will advice you go for Transvaginal scan. Pelvic scan might not see if there is retained product.

Greetings mamas

Please how much does hormonal profile test cost?
I stopped taking family planning shot last August and till now period hasn't stabilized. It's twice every month
Who has experienced this before pls ? I'm trying for a BFP but this body is so strange

The one I did I paid over 30k. It was in a private hospital. It might be cheaper in a lab or general hospital
