Martin Luther King had a dream...He kept on pushing and his name is engraved in the sands of time
Obama had a dream....He pushed on against all odds and his name is engraved in the sands of time
PMB had a dream. Finally he got the biro. Where he's engraving his name now sha I never know
These ladies took out time and posted poe , birthing stories and costs. Some posted even the day after delivery. So that people with similar dreams could benefit. I call that sacrifice.
Now you want them to come and post AGAIN because you have refused to garner the free information floating everywhere.Why? Why would they suffer to achieve their dreams and still achieve your owwn dreams for you? These are nursing mothers with husbands and jobs .
You are still awake o! Youu never start to dream.

I had a still birth on 7th Jan. Its such a very sad experiece.
I used Dr Amanjoh of Methodist sugarland, I have no regret whatsoever! The baby has already passed by the time I got to the hospital for delivery. She stopped being just my doctor and is now my sister. D staff of methodist sugarland and dr Amanjoh are smply great, even as I grief for my baby, I reckon with them, I will simply choose dem again.

And Soulcare woman? God bless her for me, even thogh I'm alone in America with no friend and family, they filled d vacum well. She stayed with me all tru my CS, my 1st thought was to run out of the hospital and board d next plane back to Nigeria wt my pregnancy, but she stayed and held my hand tru the c section, her whole family stayed truout d day helping wt my grief, hers is more than a concierge, it's a calling.

To my roommate, you know yourself, I say Thank you.

To God, I bless ur name, cos you have already given me the fortitude to bear the loss, even though I waited 3 years for this journey. I thank you for defending my own life, and for all.

To my husband, God be praised, I appreciate you more.

yokus:
To be honest, i am there right now, my friend is about to deliver and there r rly understaffed. Until i read ur post i thought it was just a one time thing o. Though they explained that they r sorry, there was a baby in distress. But my friend is not happy with the services, i feel bad cos i introduced her to oakbend.
As a matter of fact, i had to ask her. R u favoured girl. U said her exact feelings right now.

Sabi mamas, Abeg help me torchlight this issue oh!

I renewed my visa via Dropbox last September when I was already pregnant. I have used the visa twice since then, once in October and again in November. The second time I used the visa, I was already showing and sent for secondary inspection at Atlanta where I declared the pregnancy but insisted my current visit wasn't for birth cos It wasn't. I was thereafter stamped in. I'm planning to travel for birth this March and I have emailed the consulate in Lagos as well as the embassy in Abuja of my intention to birth. Both have responded. The clarification I seek is on two points:

1. Is there any other thing I need to do to be on track or am I good to go?

2. Any advice for me?

Thank you everyone. Big hugs to you for your labour of love...

bigfido:
Didn't you profess your lack of time to read just now? No be your post full this whole page so? Loool!

Kemo88:
Lol my dear it's the only place I have family o. Funny thing is their whole package for spontaneous (vaginal )delivery is 2500 dollars without epidural. So they are affordable. I don't know anyone in Houston o lol

Kemo88:
Asin... See my dilemma. That's the only place I have family o. Those Alaskan hospitals can stress. They are not exposed so it's so difficult for them to just understand the "simplest" things lol

Kemo88:
My dear I understand you but it's not easy going through some of those threads. I'm speaking personally. My work schedule is crazy I'm a pregnant doctor on call every other day, I was even admitted recently cos of stress at work. So please just pity me this one time and let those who can answer me- answer. I'm so sorry for the inconvenience I'm causing but please help me.
Thanks

Kemo88:
Hi mums,
Happy new year.... How's everyone doing?
I have 3 questions
1) please how is LAX ( Los Angeles ) as a point of entry
2) is it true that lagos airport won't let you fly past 32weeks? Is it true that they have an ultra sound scan to check the number of weeks to see if you are lying?
2) please with all these Buhari wahala, where can I get dollars at the cheapest exchange rate.

Thanks...

See Research Ambassador for 2016!

Thumbs up! Oya lurkers/ghost members, food is served

LadyGuinivere:
Thank God o! But I shall send ! To avoid eya stories on NL.
Na person when never experience harassment at poe go take things for granted. Early last year, my husband and I were held in a holding cell overnight in North cyprus while our visa and purpose was verified. All the ajebo and big woman wen de my genes just disaapear as I watched Nigerians being deported. It makes me upset when I see people on the visit thread further spoiling our reputation by the kiri kiri needless lies they come up with.
I am afraid o!

olokings:
they got a pretty good logic that their argument.

its becoming too much of a coincidence, begining to sound more like a well thought out and pre-meditated crime.

at least, we should try and USE the VISA for a FAMILY VACATION before sending the hot change of intent.
that makes it a change of intent na abi?

buh then again, we trying to CUT COST and causing trouble for ourselves and others coming behind.

Good luck to us all![b][/b]

LI:
A friend in Houston at present, told me about her friend being turned back at the POE; It may or may not be the person.

Be that as it may, this was definitely bound to happen. We should be aware that those guys are looking for the minutest reason to deny us entry, we shouldn't make it easy for them by travelling ill-prepared or telling needless lies or even putting ourselves in a situation where we come across as dishonest thereby making the Americans generalize Nigerians as crooks

Hello everyone

I have been following this thread for a while now . I urgently need someone to refer me to Dr Fagbohun. I sent him a mail and he replied saying their practice is now referral based. Can anyone please refer me? Will be traveling by his grace in May.

Expecting a quick response.

teefex:
Thanks just saw it, was carried away immediately I saw the question apple19 asked was like this is the same question I have been asking didn't read further until I posted my question

Will 3 weeks or 1 month old statement of account be convincing at POE?
Pls does anyone know if oakbend collects medical bills payment before getting to the state

Apple19:
Thanks @favouredgal for your help, may the Lord bless your knowledge.

@All, was at Lufthansa office yesterday and asked repeated questions about their pregnancy policy. The lady (feeling and looking tired sef) said their policy is to fly pregnant women even till their 36th week. So asked why preggy mamas are being embarrassed (@firsttymum), she siad it depends on thier "instinct". That if they suspect the Mama might be untruthful about their week(as in bigger Tommy) or might be carrying multiple and declared single and they suspect, then they'll send the person back or ask to see their own doctors report (Julius begger Hosp or so). Also, if the individual is looking sick or swollen feet even before boarding, they won't want to take chance.

So I think they use their "instinct" rather than policy. So she said in case am not convinced, I can go with my Doctor's report, still fill their own medical form and print also get fit to fly from port health. If they ask for any, I can always have them handy. Also adviced I have photocopy of all.

I paid ,$1543.96 (#308,789) or so at the rate of #200/$1 I think. return ticket to dallas. I feel this info might help someone. ......goodmorning and have a waddling-filled day

So better leave am there ooo, cos if you bring it back here your Americana pikin will be tied to naija and the whole aim of your missionary journey will be defeated kikikikikikikikiki

ccurrie:
Please can people reply me on this thread? Since I was directed here a few wks ago, I have gathered all d info on change of intent, POEs to avoid, good doctors and all... I did not ask any unnecessary questions and I did the research myself. Now I need to leave soon and so far in all my reading havent really found hospitals cheaper than oakbend. If you know one could you just drop the name (not cost or quote or number) so I can google d rest and contact them? we know how the thread is I have looked through alot of the convo...all the parts, but hospital names come up very randomly and I can't just know if ts cheaper or not. So if you know, please help. thank u and God bless you.
