Dear Nairaland Mom,

Missionary journey has been fully activated. I left Nigeria on the 11/01/17 at 33 weeks/4days with Qatar and arrived Dallas on the 12/01/17 Thanks to all the mama's in the house who has shared their experiences one way or the other it has helped alot. Although, i was almost giving up on not including childbirth as my purpose in the US, especially as anyone you tell you are going to give birth in the US would tell you not to declare you are pregnant (IGNORANCE!!!), but i kept believing on this forum, discussed with DH and we both agreed the only way out was the TRUTH. In the spirit of giving back to the community....

PART 1- MY DOLLAR WAKA
I was lucky to $2500 out of $3000 from my daddy's Ecobank dom account which he gave me at a very good rate even though he would be travelling soon and needed it as well. Since there was no other way to get any more dollar apart from Black market, i went for it with 'RED EYE'. I was also hoping to get more when i get to Lagos from Burea de change at the rate of N400/$1 but my heart from broken when they said they dint have dollar and i had to buy from Black market at the airport which was N2.00 more expensive than in Warri.

PART 2- QATAR EXPERIENCE
I had already sent my Medical Certificate and MEDIF filled and signed by my doctor few days before departure via Qatar local Email. I called some days after sending it to confirm the status and was told it has been approved, I was not asked for it while checking in. The attendant sent me for Fit to fly at the airport, I paid N1500 and got the cert. We left Lagos around 3pm and arrived Doha 7 hours later. I was qualified for an accommodation because i had an 8hrs layover, got to the hotel, rested till morning and was off for the airport at 6am. I was questioned by Qatar officials, if i was expecting?how much would it cost me?if i have a doctor and evidence?...and that was it.

PART 3- DALLAS POE
We touched down Dallas around 3:25pm. Went straight to the B1/B2 section of the Electronic Receipt kiosk, scanned my visa, answered the questions, got my print out and headed for my luggage. Picked up luggage and then CBP officer, i was already CABASHING before it got to my turn.
ME: Goodafternoon sir
CBP: What is your purpose in the US?
ME: For Holiday and Maternity Leave
CBP: Do you intend having your baby in the US?
ME: Yes sir.
CBP: I can see you declared food, i will have to send you to Agriculture.
At agriculture i was asked was what kind of food i was carrying, scanned my bags and i was Off!!! Without any document checked even though i was prepared with all my documents. God was too faithful, Dallas POE is bae abeg!!! My host picked me up, got home and rested. I noticed my passport was not stamped, i was a bit scared but my host told me to check i-94 website, which i did and discovered i was admitted till November 2017 which is even more than 6 months...Glorrrrrrryyyy!!!!

Sorry for my long post but i just had to give back.

Please have you gotten any response on this
