My question is for those who have traveled with a toddler and used wheelchair. Were you allowed to carry your toddler on your lap while you were being pushed? At your destination in US, did another porter push your luggage while were you were still being pushed on your wheelchair?

Pm me for a reliable shipper in Sayreville, NJ...
I have used them so many times, shipped from clothing to 65" TV to Abuja and I got it in one piece, shipping time is very fair, cost good..takes 14days for airfreight and sea freight was less than 2 months for me and was affordable.
Shipping to Lag even takes a shorter time..pls this is not an advertisement in any way..I just love the shipping line cos they've served me well

@Demi2000 and gratefulheart88, pls for arik, I read on the website that you have to bring your medical report to them at least 48hrs b4 your intended flight. Did you both do this or did you just go to the airport on the day of your trip and check in the normal way?

dittobaby:
Congrats on you successful poe. My questions are: Who pushes the wheelchair? On arrival, does this person wait for you to finish inspection with the poe officers? Does he then continue wheeling you to the arrivals lounge? Do you pay him or give him a tip or nothing ? Will appreciate a response from you or anyone else.

weaseloo:
Yes for the newborn baby. Thanks.

I had a c-section.
Dr's Office: $3340 ($2500 doctor's charges, $445 labs, $145 initial visit, $250 ultrasound)
WHMC CS: $4000
Epidural: $1200

The Paediatrics fees are still all over the place now, yet to complie it. The Texas Paediatric have a sheet containing the discounted payments for self-pay patients. They made us see the doctor after a week of birth for fear of jaundice. Thankful she did not have it. Paid for a second visit + 14 day screening test fee. I think there is another visit when the baby is a month old. So far may have paid about $400.

Praise God with me my people. My daughter's delivery was very successful! Dr. La is a great doctor and the hospital staff were superb. It is a world of difference between the birth of my first at Park Plaza Hospital and this experience. When you walk into WHMC you would think it was a hotel, beautiful.

I dealt with two ladies on accommodation issue, though I ended up not using either because I am renting/leasing. But the two Soul Care and Pampered Care I would say are kind and very serious minded. The locations and setting they had did not work for me.

I also came here to ask for a car rental service. Again, I ended up not renting a car. Someone was recommended to me. He basically drove me around to where ever I needed to go at an agreed cost which was cheaper than Uber and of course the Yellow Cab. I would use him if I have to go somewhere far and then use Uber for nearer journeys. I met a few Nigerians using the Uber service, one of them prayed for me and baby. Really interesting. There was one Uber driver that carried me from walmart. The guy simply opened his truck and started the journey. He did not even bother to help me load my shopping into his truck. You will meet all sorts! The variety is what interests me. I also met one Mohammed from Afghanistan. If I tell you I was not scared, I will be joking. I simply kept my cool till I got to my destination & just thanked my God! Lol.

I got a few discounts. For the Pathology paid like: $70; Hearing Test: $163 (half price); Surgical Assistant: $200. Just ask for a discount, you never know, they may have concessions.

Now in the process of getting baby's papers together. I have a question though. I have just called BA to add my daughter to my booking. My question is that I hope I will not have any problems with immigration and whether or not I got a return ticket for her. Please any mum that has returned to Nija via BA, did you have such an experience or not?



Congratulations to you and your little one. Thank God for safe delivery.

Thanks @shelly23. Please does anyone have details of a doctor/hospital in new jersey that will respond sharply?

Luckychild2015:
Hi everyone, am new to this forum. I really appreciate all ur comments and advice. I have written several emails to the hospital in NJ Hackensack but I got no respond. Can someone pls help me? I need an affordable hospital in NY/ NJ pls. I wish u all safe deliveries and stress free POE, Amen. Is the ticket promo still on pls?

favouredB:
I am using Doctor Fares Diabakerli. Will send you his number via PM.

I have been getting lots of PMS on total cost for Hackensack and I think I should mention it here again.

Doctor's fee ....1,500 for vaginal delivery and 2000 for CS. Hospital fee...3,800 ( for 2 days normal delivery). So far for all the tests the bill came to about 620 or so but after discount I paid 220. Not sure yet about exact fees for Paed and others.

rable:
@ ajobi21 l intend going to new jersey too, l am using Hankensack umc , l have contacted the doctor and l ve been sent the delivery package , you can pm me.

kizluv:
Depends on how much she has paid from the $43k and also the amount of money she pays monthly, this would determine when she will eventually finish paying her bills. Those people can be funny. They shouldn't go and say she should have up to $43k, or say she should use the " huge cash " she has on her to settle a reasonable about of the debt. Am just saying thou...

Airpure:
They ask for consent letter u asked for receipt hw does this make sense my question again is hw much did u give her for the birth of UR child.

U want to write to the embassy to do a disclaimer

U won't find sympathy or answers here ohh this thread is full of preggies that cant sleep like me n hormones r ragging. Why dont u open a thread to first sorter out ur marriage issue den com back here for help with ur visa issues.

Bsharon:
