Don't mind the eediats! That's what unity bank staff wanted to do when I de find pta. Why are we noot reporting them sef?

Got confirmation from my friend in lagos working at Unity bank that its 197 according to official rate.

Got to the bank, asked d guy that i was told its the official rate he said well he will confirm. Meanwhile he told me that the person who got last week paid 240/$

They are using it for business just as u said. Kwarupton.!!!

Harjeehbaday:
Na wa ooo...The guy i spoke with at FCMB said it is within 197 - 199 but they cant guaranty that i will get PTA but i can apply two weeks before travel date.

Why Unity go charge $240?

I wonder too.

Goodmorning E-fam,
Just coming back from unity bank in search of PTA ad i was told i can get within 2weeks to collect. Then i asked how much is it going for was told 240/$·

Biko is it what other mamas and papas paid?

Babyidj01:
I didn't use epidural for my first and active labour was so short!!! The key is adequate exercise before going to d hospital like dancing, u would hv been properly dilated. I got to the hospital at 9cm dilated!!! Spent just 30 minutes for checking etc n boom baby was out..

I tap into this. My experience will be same in Jesus Name. Amen.

Have you been to dutse mkt on Monday? It's so rowdy on Mondays mehn, I haven't really explored the market on a Monday but I go there every oda day. Thanks

Its usually very crowded. I usually go there on mondays after work.

favoredgal:
Nursing is a demand and supply thing
The more you put the baby to the boobs the more your brain triggers your supply maker.

All these cleaning, drawing out, etc except you have inverted nips are unnecessary

If you'v not put to bed; don't even worry or stress in advance

If you've put to bed and the milk has not come out. You can also add your pump to assert twice the demand and trick your body

Drinking liquids - water, tea, pap- liquid sha helps

Relaxing and not stressing about it is also very very key

Now i understand why mamas travel with pap. Was thinking its some kinda food they like not knowing its for breast milk.

Thanks for d info.

ozycy:
Congratulations.

I think i can help a bit about d market.
There are different days for market within d environment... We have dutse market that holds every monday. It just befor kubwa coming from gwarimpa.
We have karmo market on Tuesdays. Drive straight from life camp it on d way u cant miss it.
We have madalla market in zuba on thursdays.
We still have gwagwa which is on your way to dei dei on Saturdays (you can get supper cheap foodstuff just like Dikko market)

You need to go early to get it cheaper.

gbolapupo:

My people, you see me see peer pressure Na Mo make me go renew visa! Na she still de give me childbearing time table! Hian!

You no go talk ur true intentions. No be you say make we go Las Vegas go double the childbirth money on the poker table in MGM Na the omugwo be that?

Lmao...u guys are weekend o. Biko leave me alone!!!

happytbaby:
@ mumcshyn: please take the baby to see a pediatrician. They are always cautious about giving little ones antibiotics. Zinnat makes my toddler stool...you don't want to compound the issue if the baby reacts to Zinnnat.

@ Blaize777: If she decides she still needs it, carrying the medication in your checked -in-luggage is not an issue.

@ Mulberry: sorry about your Dad, may God comfort you.

@ Modath : aye n se iru e, one of my friends that had a baby July 9, 2014 had another one July 5, 2015. You will not be the first and your oga is capable. You will just end up having two babies noni, nothing spoil.

Lmao

Hello house,

suntai:
Great news! My friend's big sister got her miracle baby girl yesterday in Houston Texas after 24 years of marriage! She will be 48 in July and hubby is 54!!!! I'm so happy right now just had to post this awesome testimony! God is great!!!!

Congratulations...God is a Miracle worker. God bless the LO.

Please whats d full meaning of PSI?

suntai:
Hi dear, they usually calculate based on weight for air cargo and by volume for sea freight. It's $4.80 to Abuja/kg for air cargo but I would suggest you call them, my phone crashed so I don't have their number I usually mail them, or my sister in Katy Texas goes there on my behalf. But you can google them...lol.

This was really helpful. Thank you!

Querylady24:
After an IVF cycle in October, got pregnant naturally in Dec, didn't find out until end of Jan even though I was preparing for another round of IVF for February and I did take pregnancy test on Dec 15 to be precise. So I agree with you it does take a while to know for some people.

Congratulations darl. Am June houston bound. Using thesame doctor too!

nefertitiram:
She would not have missed her period yet, or even suspect preg.

Most women find out dey r preg around 6 weeks, which may be around the time she travelled

I was really confused oo.. that was y i punched calculator

Thank you.

Querylady24:
Dec-Aug is 9month leaving for the US in July. Didn't just state that. You could have just asked

Its fine now...

Querylady24:
Hello everyone,
I am new on here and just have a few questions. [b]Got my visa in Nov wasn't asked any pregnancy question (I wasn't at that point) [/b]traveled Dec got back Jan. [b]Want to go for delivery in July, [/b]I have read on here that I have to write a Notification of intent letter to the embassy. Can I write the letter now? Or it's still early? How long does it take for the embassy to respond? Do I need to attach all receipt of payment made with the letter?
I have been making payment to Dr and hospital. Will I still need to carry cash? And how much should I be looking at? Going to Houston and everything about the POE is making me nervous so I am trying to prepare and get all detailed information needed.
I have also bought my ticket and read here you need a return ticket for the baby? Why? I thought for infants it was free.

Nov-july is 9months

suntai:
Yes PSI is very good and reliable been using them since 2012 and they deliver to your door. Expecting another shipment in may. Cheers!

Please how much do u think a baby cot will cost if i use PSI from houston to Abuja?

shithapuns:

Not just Sapele ooo. They dont do PTA

yokus:
My people, i have missed u. Yippee we don enter part4
Kai i forgot how this 6weeks inmunisation affects kids oo, its not easy. God bless our LOs n us too.

Thank you to the person that discouraged me from doing contraceptive implants here at $1500 o. I did it at LASUTH at 500naira for the 5year one, it is unbelieveable, i was happy to tip cos that difference ehn. Whew.
So after paying alot for extra luggage to pack similac n pampers for madam here, she decided to stop taking similac and pampers irritates her skin. Mmmm i guess 2 weeks is to short to be sure of what my baby will use in the long run. I don drop them for one supermarket. (Shines teeth)
Weldone everyone, Weldone JustWise.
Special kisses to eyin temi...mua
Lest i forget Arik refunded 46k
United bought through travelstart refunded nothing, what irritated me most is travelstart had an option for service rendered to get full or partial refund which i paid for but they couldnt get me a refund.
Its unfortunate, that option should be disabled for tickets that they know is not refundable, and they should boldly state some tickets are non refundable before payment. I dont have their time yet. LO is still my priority for now

$1500 as to #500...wat a huge difference. Sometimes not every Amelica thingz is good for our pocket.
