Yam wetin? I never even smell yam for the past one month . I can fry plantain and potato to substitute for the yam

hahhahahahhaaha... The way I'm craving yam en.

Yokus

They didn't even ask me how much I was carrying till I got to the us... So I'm wondering which new laws.

To pay oakbend in advance:

ur husband can pay from Nigeria after you have gotten here. All you do is register, get the account number ( and all the info d bank in naija needs) and your Hospital id number. Then your husband shld go to the bank with copies of ur passport page, visa page, ticket... Then fill a form A then the bank will do the rest. I'm sure of gtbank

There's no safe Poe o... Just pray, be honest, be prepared and confident.

Goodluck

Note that paying medical bills before u get to the US doesn't guarantee entry.

It's not easy to start typing all u shld carry especially as people have come to say it over and over again what they took along with them. Search for people who passed through the poe u intend to pass

Let's not take chances... Read about ur POE very well before u travel and read about documents popular asked for at that poe.

For example my poe was EWR I can only give u Gist about that.

Poe is good for some bad for some... One can't categorically say any Poe is safe as it is now.
It's just to pray, be prepared, and b confident.

As for the cost breakdown haba someone replied this like two days ago... This thing has been flogged and flogged. Haba plus emails to get the cost breakdown firsthand sef has been dropped.

Yeepee part 3

missusadey:
Thanks LI...I'm planning to fly Delta to Atl frm Lagos though I'm based in Abj. I intend flying at 34wks+ and all these our local airlines are not smiling. Most won't carry after 28wks. Even at 20wks they harass for fit to fly. I would try my luck with arik.

I flew medview... I was more than 28 weeks.
Don't try Arik. Inshore forgerrit.
Try Dana no cut off policy written on their website. They only said present ur fit to fly.

My advice is to go with a fit to fly from Abuja port health.

Nasadiva:
Come, u and ftym are yet to pay me "referral abi consultation fee"

. Hahahahahha a.... Ozycy will pay for me.

ozycy:
You can come and visit me even dou I never born . Did she use our precious Dr?

u get yam and egg? That's all my craving... I can visit u everyday because of yam and egg

shanaka29:
Hi Houston mamas,

can anyone give me Dr A.'s contact and cost breakdown ?
I was planning on using dr F. but all the bad reviews are giving me cold feet about him.
BTW, i emailed him and he said i could not show up any later than 35 weeks.
I can't afford a flight any sooner than in my 35th week. Could i still get accepted by dr A. if i'm like 36 weeks + 1

Do i need anything else for POE ?

Dr F isn't bad if u not high risk... And u don't mind his tight schedule. They ain't bad reviews per say.
For Dr A use the search option to get the cost breakdown. most of us never born so we can't for sure give u a cost breakdown. But someone has shared it b4.
There's a test they usually do at 35 weeks that's why they are skeptical about taking after 35 weeks. I can't say for sure if she accepts after 35 weeks. I hope the airline u r takin is 36 weeks friendly.

Oh boy.... This is just terrible....

Another thing again is that these people are seeing well prepared preggy women.. With documents for almost everything.
For her to show up without "anything" musta vexed them.

I cant imagine how the kids feel

Wickedness o... At least no ban.. She can reapply and explain her self better.

Neks31 if it's attention u want then u have d "wrong" person.

Shrekandfiona so no OBGYN on call or is it that he wants to eat the money alone. He shld compensate u with some refund. If u wanted nurses to handle d delivery u wld have used a birth center or something.

Bbsy:
@ozycy @firsttymum abeg whats your Docs name and which hospital does he/she uses.
Thanks

Bbsy seriously? These are national anthem names on this thread. Besides we ain't allowed to mention Dr's names. Especially when there's a comparison.
If u read this page or a few pages away you'll b able to join the lines.

toparie:
With gratitude to God and with overwhelming joy in my heart, I had my baby this morning... A very healthy and amazingly beautiful girl

no wahala waiting for ur pm.

uptown17:
meanwhile i wana aask u somefn, should i PM u?

neks31:
See gobe o! MD hates needles and won't wasye time pointing giving us/ pointing us to take it Diarisssss God o "shakes boobs"! Meanwhile I'm changing my mind o to port to DRF but I have a phobia for female MD(s)! Waiting on ur amazing delivery story to compare notes n prices off course.

lol...... I hate drugs too..... Na so life b o, I literally cry when I'm given injection. Or when my blood is to b taken.... Even ordinary tetanus injection. The phobia no b here... But I can give it especially if u have phobia I can make u calm.

Why do u have phobia for us na... What did we do? Thought we r more patient Nd loving...

Will definitely share my story...

FinanceFitness:
Han han...

@ozycy and firsty.... Leave our Dr F nau... You know I would have still used him even if I knew Dr A.... I wanted experience.... Lol

Meanwhile, we get to pay $300 or $350 on first visit with Dr F aside the test, scan and discounted fees....

u see am..... He's my darling too o. Lok

shrekandfiona:
Uwc. Just be prepared for Dr F's lackadaisical attitude o. His discounted rate plus the tests is 2,860$ and that is if you pay in cash on your 2nd visit. Could be more if otherwise. Good luck with him

lol....


Ozycy reading the above.... And comparing to ours... A reason to smile. That's saving 860

shrekandfiona:
I tell ya. And he tells you that's his discounted rate for the test. He doesn't even tell/give the results until you demand for it. When I asked him why I wasn't given the test results, he said because all the results were fine but I would have been alerted if the results came out +ve.

However I demanded a print out of all my test results and was given and those same tests were done immediately after delivery by the hospital's pathologist except the pap smear

it's the discounted statement part that's annoying me right now.
He does the ultrasound himself yet he charges it separately Main while u pay Dr's fee o....

It's not fair... If the test will b repeated at delivery then why repeat it. Mscheew.....

ozycy:
Vuvu annoying. I wonder what I ll be testing for $600 and after wch the hospital will still test der own. I didn't pay a dime for any test. All my tests were accepted by my precious doc . Na me come dey beg for test sef

our sweet precious Dr.....

tyconcepts:
Congrats Stadora.....God bless you and your baby boy. Am coming behind in Jesus name....Amen.

Sweetie is it that ur Dr didn't do a vag examination at ur last ANC.? All I know is that it's going to end in praise....

Apple19:
Hello house, congrats to all successful Interviews and POEs. May God make is easy for us remaining.

@Firsty Mum, am still waiting for the update O. You can PM me plssss!!!! Thanks in anticipation. Expecting the grand entry of LO

what update darling... Can't remember no vex *covers face *

shrekandfiona:
He won't accept others o and he charges about 600$ for the rest tests and annoyingly, the same tests are repeated at delivery at a cost except the paper smear

wow... Didn't even know it was that high. So annoying. Why make us do the test when same tests will b repeated at delivery.... That's what's more annoying.

Forget I'm all cheerful and playful.... I can b nasty and a biatch if I want to.
But this a faceless forum and I'm not a keyboard warrior... Nastiness isn't really my thing... But then again two can play the game

My dear, everyone doesn't need to be an agent, Stop being overly suspicious of everyone. Have a couple of family members that have made inquires like you probably have done too with your family members and the quotes I sent to them were way to high.

interesting statement.
If u sound like an agent here.. People usually don't reply, which I guess u already know. Anyway I asked because d rates I av are way way lower than ur quote..

vamum:
I run down o! Justwise has seen competition for moderator

seen... Ignored.

Awwwww... I'm getting emotional right now... Congratulations dear... Wish u luck at d poe and also delivery of ur baby

uptown17:
for veterans that have used houston & oakbend for their 1st, 2nd or to 5th missionary journey i have a question pls
asides intown, soulcare, pampered stay, etc have you successfully rented an apartment for 2-3 months in houston conviniently?
if so, could you KINDLYyyyyyy share some details on how you got it
i was made to understand renting apartments are still cheaper than intown etc (i stand to be corrected tho)

Out of curiosity and Gist with my host

Sometimes U need papers to rent apartments.... U must b renting for at least 3 months. Because they can't like track u or something b ready to make full payment( some places tho).

An alternative is to b lucky enough to get someone who has a two bedroom and wants to rent out one of the bedrooms to u.

Or if u know someone there... The person can get an apartment in his or her name for u... Nd u pay.

Dr F nd Dr A are pretty different as regards the tests... One doesn't waste ur time and money with some tests since it will b redone at delivery ( except it's absolutely necessary)... While d other wants it.

I kukuma hate needles... So I'm glad I chose an amazing Dr.

Twingirls congratulations again..

The handsome part got me laughing

Mumof2boys:
Wetin be your own?

You b alright hun..... Take a glass chilled water aii?
