Spot on Tvegas, my baby sleeps beside me, don't buy a crib cus they don't sleep in it, stroller u really don't need in naija, I got as a gift, maybe we'll use when we go on vacation, invest in car seat, I bought bouncer sef, na me dey use hand bounce baby, you. Can get a play gym cus it catches their attention and that's pretty cheap. Buy plenty food, I stocked up on liquid and powder formula my little one eats well, pampers ooo, leave new born, start from 1-4 if u can, clothes from 3-18months, come and buy step down from park and shop for ur appliances, my liquid soap and cream baby didn't use, they baath her with black soap and ori, she's got the most gorgeous skin, buy powder (cornstarch) the heat is realllll, the hosp advice against it oo, but be careful when u put on baby's body. Save ur cash, babies don't go out within the 1st 3 months, buy onesies ( for day and night) short sleeves and few long sleeves except u are blessed with light (nepa)

Please why can't this people tell you all that is involved in childbirth so you will know how to make your budget. From the blues Hackensack just informed me now that they have to carry out Hep B test on me to know if baby has it or not. Meanwhile they gave her the vaccine this afternoon.

Wow that's so not fair, and I am using the Hackensack too, now not too good review plus the hep b test Kai I tire oo,

@FavouredB, tried sending you a pm but it's not allowing me to, I am planning on using Dr Fares too in NJ, please can you post how you intend to sort the baby's US and Naija passport or visa once you put to bed and settled . Thanks

Good afternoon everyone, I am new in here and I appreciate everyone that took time out to write out their experiences, I intend having my baby in the US, though I am not due till next year march,I got my visa before I got pregnant and I read in the thread to write to the embassy on my intention to do that , I see MIH as an affordable option but would love to know of any affordable accommodation around the area and if anyone is willing to share a two or three bedroom during my time of edd , I will really appreciate
