Happy new year to everyone....many blessings to all of us in 2016 IJN.Amen.please quick urgent question to Oakbend moms....were you satisfied with the result of the circumcision done on your LOs? if yes,was it a specific person who did it,or did you just walk into the hospital to get it done?if no,any recommendations?i know we have discussed this here b4 (corner kick style et al the jokes)but I honestly don't have the human strength to go through the discussion,have mercy on me.thanks in advance.
Dr F does it well but I doubt he will do it for your child if you dint use him as your Oby-gyn

Ask dr E to recommend someone that can do it Naija style or wait till you get to naij

She did scan went for antenatal but doesn't wanto know sex. Her Sis is her Gyn knew she's carrying twins buy didn't tell her cos she too wasn't sure of sex. She was told a day to delivery.
She can do scan and be told she is having twins without being told their sex undecided

That's a very dangerous thing they did there

Anyways that's their own Wahala, thank God for safe delivery

Yipee....My friend gave birth to twins yesterday..a boy n girl... she refused to check d sex during pregnancy cos she has 2girls already, she never knew she was carrying twins...God is Good.
Even though she dint want to check the sex, she dint do scan? This is extremely dangerous as the care for a pregnant woman with twins is different

It's clear she dint go for antenatal with at least a midwife? If she did and the dr never heard two heartbeats with a Doppler or a dating scan or an anormally scan or when checking her tummy never knew she was carrying twins then that's even scarier.

Maybe she is just messing with you guys in true Naija (secretive) fashion

It is well

Yea i stayed one midnight .. got to the hospital about midday on the 19th, baby came around 5:35pm same day. Dr E gave me d clear to go at about 3am, while baby got discharged around 6/7ish pm after the repeat tests done 24hours later
That's 2 days for nics - 19th and 20th

Thats not right, NICS caters to baby's needs so there for, baby was born 1am, which was on thursday, their businesses with you started on a Thursday, they should bill you 2 days! I think you should hold your ground when you call them, that baby was born thursday, and since their services is rendered to baby and not you, their billing should start from thursday
This is true.

I got to the hospital on the 27th, gave birth past 1am on the 28th and left the hospital in the morning of the 30th.

Oakbend counted it as 48 hours after delivery, so it was 2 days for both baby and me

Nics counted it as 28th (the day the baby was born) ; 29th and 30th so it was 3 days

Let's always ask for clarification before we pay any bill

...and it has all ended in praise!To God almighty alone I give all the glory,I had my LO on the 30th via CS(unplanned),Dr E is an exceptional lady,I am glad I chose her.i had to be admitted due to HBP,hmmm,I am waiting for oakbend to nack me bill,I will keep the house posted.LO is a big baby but in perfect condition ,I sent him to the nursery so that I can sleep well before night vigil starts,but reading about charges incurred,I think I should keep him with me,dollar is not smiling,me sef I squeeze face unstop the mata.Lol
Whether you send him or keep him your bill will be the SAME

Any investigation they are doing is from the blood drawn at heel prick during birth, so let them do their work While you rest

Congrats and happy new year in advance

For NICS if u give birth to a big baby you will incur extra charges... As they will run test on d baby and do some extra monitoring
.
I wonder what qualifies as big! Ridiculous people
@Akelvin what Time did you give birth? That also matters for the silly Nicu people.

Oakbend counts from midnight but they count by dates, so what for me and oakbend was a 2 day hospital stay was counted as 3 days by them

@ozycy;Na to run back sure pass now,will eat enuf yam in naija,dollar ain't smiling.@neks;I want to believe they'v increased their fee but let's wait n compare wit others cos d breakdown they sent after all d calls n emails;they said initial care after birth for 30mins was $200+,subsequent care $180+,hearing test $173,discharge fee $205,total came to $750+ can't remember exact value Till I check so after d discount was asked to pay $604 n my baby was wit me wasn't in d nursery I wuld ave said mayb they did I didn't know.wondering y discharge fee was dat high d lady kept saying dat is their fee n can't give further discount cos they ave to b fair to all parents
Was also using Dr f quotes n what ozycy paid as initial budget
Involve the dr, that's the Gd thing about Fagbohoun sha he will always get involved

Maybe you should get dr Eziekiel involved, when I had my daughter I was given a bill $1000 but I paid $606 after fight, but then she had jaundice and went under photo therapy so we stayed 3 days

This is the email and no of the person I dealt with then, mayb you can try it and get more clarification. She used to be prompt with her response

That cant be true cos i still withdrew from my dorm account about 1-2 weeks ago from gtbank. I will still withdraw next week.
My conclusion is that some Gtbank staff in some branches are being dubious and profiting from the situation

Instead of paying customer in dollars they exchange it at 199 then go ahead and sell it to mallam

Good evening mamas. How una dey? Pls I need help in getting a car seat for my Lo.
I want something durable and also something I can carry along into church etc (detachable) and which my baby can use upto 1yr.
He was weighing 6kg @ 6weeks.
I saw the graco snugride classic connect 30. I wud like a review and other suggestion especially on the ones u have used.
I also want advice on a baby carrier and walker to buy too.
Thanks!

Cc: Onegai, tchiwinnie, Zaynie, favoredgal, Ahnie, lovinam, beedam, Ozycy; Biko help out.
An infant seat will be easier for you to carry to church and everywhere than d convertible that's heavy.

Downside is by 10 months or so the baby will outgrow it on time. However, if this is your first child other babies following will use it cuz u will use the convertible for quite some time

Since u need a walker too just buy a travel system (which is a matching car seat and stroller which functions together)

I bought graco, not sure if it's the connect 30 but graco is a good product so u good to go

Don't worry it gets better with time
My daughter used to wake up every two hours till 10 months then I weaned off bmilk and she started sleeping 12 straight hours, still does so till now.

Some babies start sleeping thru earlier especially when you introduce solid food at 4 or 6 months.

Also at night, try to breastfeed with as minimal light as you can and be quiet, that helps the baby to fall asleep almost immediately

Goodmorning mummies and mummies-to-be mas, i'm new on this thread. please welcome me

Okay, my problem is that I am 14 weeks preg now and looking out for hospital to register with. My workplace is very close to Lagos Island Maternity but I heard that hubby needs to donate blood before i can register for antenatal and hubby is not in Lagos.

Please can you suggest close-by private hospital where hubby won't need to donate blood? and the procedures please.

NB.
1. My mondays - fridays is always at work...but I can go to see doc during breaktime or weekends which is why I need a close-by hospital.
2. Might eventually leave Lagos but I need to undergo the so-called pregnancy screening and test...which is mainly why i need to register with a hospital now. cool

Please help a neighbour.... kiss
I used Reddington in vi but it's very pricey if you intend paying out of pocket
