Thanks. Pls, incase u know pages where it was shared. Pls, let me know. I don't have issues with weather have been travelling. Both winter and summer. Plus, I love cold

Dentale:
Welcome. We were all JJCs at some point so no worries. Read back a few pages. Nef and Modath shared some details of hospital costs in different states. There was also a detailed link for all states in the US. Just drill down to a few states. Not more than 2 or 3. Focus on the weather too at the time of your EDD. If you haven't experienced winter before, it may not be a good time to go to a cold state. In summary, u have some very good starting points but u need to do some work by calling the hospitals u have decided to focus on. It would be easier from there.
Meanwhile that bill of a thousand plus sounds too good to be true. And you know what the saying is about if something is too good to be true.....

Hello everyone, please, sorry in advance for my plenty questions. I be JJC for child birth in US. I have been searching to no avail for hospitals for now. My questions are:

What is the difference between non-profit or profit hospitals? Is there any of them that possess problem in the future.

Secondly, someone told me about a community hospital that was extremely cheap. Total bill of a thousand plus. Am not sure if its a good idea.

Thirdly, can someone help me with hospitals that are very cheap with doctor's contact. Like a total less than 5k USD. Any state is welcomed. Hoping to have a VBAC though.

Make una help me abeg. I have been surfing the net and this forum but I wan craze cos I hvnt made any head way. Am so confused.

Thanks in advance

Detailed explanation. Thanks a million....

Nigeria passport cannot be done by proxy. You/baby have to be there in person. Whereas, the visa can be done by proxy. And those 3 states you listed are where we have naija consulate so if one is not in those states, then the visa is your sure bet.

Visa is more expensive than the passport though.

Thanks a bunch dear...

Yes dear,those are the states that issue the Nigerian passport.... if you are in those states it's better to get a passport than a visa.... just start processing it on time...

Which states issue the nigerian passport? Is it the same states that have the nigerian embassies for the nigerian visa's I.e New york, Atlanta and Wahington. Also, which one is more stress free. Nigerian visa vs Nigerian passport. Abeg, make una no vex for me. Person wey dey ask question, no dey miss road. Thanks

kaakaa:
They get the nigerian visa bc they are not in states that issue Nigerian passport.... and travelling to these states for a passport is not cost effective....

Thanks alot. I appreciate. I will check out the hospital. God bless....

I used wyckoff heights medical center in brooklyn ny. Just go through my previous posts for detailed info. My doc was Omrou Alchyib. But like i mentioned before, you dont choose docs. You are assigned one on your first appointment. I was just favored that it was the one i was leaning towards that was assigned to me. Google the hospital website, under the physicians check all of them out on healthgrades.com . i think out of the 6 or 7 attending doctors 4 are VBAC friendly.
All the best

Hello tobermom,
Please, can you kindly tell me the hospital you used in New york and the doctor you used. I really want to attempt VBAC and need a VBAC friendly doctor that will encourage me and not advice me to do another CS again. Please, I will be glad if you can assist a sister. Thanks

Tobermom:
Bless your heart. Im actually in transit at the moment. Everything went smoothly for the first leg now onto the next. I know one or two things bout the aviation lifestlye . So was prepared. Thanks and God bless

Hellooooooooooooo againnnnnnnnnnnn,
Please, help a sister out nah. I will cry oooooo.
I don't even know where to start. Please, mothers that have done VBAC. Which cheap hospital can I use and a hospital that is VBAC friendly. Contacts like phone no of docs.
Is there any mum with expected due date in march and planning to travel in febuary.
Thanks. ..

Hello everyone and great job you are doing here. Please, any march babies here and mothers planning to travel february 2016.
Please, what are the latest and cheapest hospitals for VBAC. If i can get one in New york, that will be preferable. Thanks

Thanks Shelly for your reply. I appreciate. I was thinking renewing will be better since my EDD is in march and visa expires in April. However, do you know the average time people spend while they travel. I know it can't be the same. Thats why I asked average. How lonh it will take to process everything and come bavk home after birth. Sorry, if my question is lame. Just a novice. Thanks

You don't need to renew your visa, as long as you get to the US before it expires, you'll be alright. You can renew when you come back.

As for getting info, take your time and start reading from page 1, pretty much everything about child birth in the US has been covered.

Hello fellow naira landers. ..
I am not new to nairaland but new to giving birth in the US. I just found out I am pregnant and we are planning to give birth in US which will be between february/march next year.

I have a B1/B2 Visa with my kids and mum which we used to travel last year august for hollidays/ Uncle's anniversary.
The visa will expire in April 2016 but I intend to renew them soon through drop box.

How early can I renew my visa? Can I renew it before it expires through drop box and can I do it now?

Should I let the embassy know that I am pregnant?

Also, I need every info I can get for child birth like cheap hospitals for CS birth and how to go about it.

Thanks everyone in advance.

Please, can someone assist me with this question asap. Can a nigerian travel to the US with a passport about to expire. The passport will expire in july. Can the person travel in june and stay for 3 weeks and come back before the 6th of july when the passport expires or does the person need to wait until after expiration of passport to renew it before travelling. I don't know if the whole 6 months validity of passport beyond intended stay applies to nigerians travelling to US. Anyone with experience..

Husband has used for men before. A friend has used for woman before.
