Yes my sister submitted at tls ikeja on the 25thand collected her passport on Wednesday (18th).

Oh wow. Please did she get a mail or just went there? The TLS site keeps stating decision not made. Thank you in anticipation to your response.

Please has anyone that did biometrics June 25th received their passport? Called the UKVI and they said decision is yet to be reached. I have another trip to make next week. and i need my passport. Please has any June 25th candidate heard anything?

Group B strep test, urinalysis also done

firsttymum:
I'm seeing all these tests and I'm like Wtf
*Not to sub or counter anyone *

In obodo Oyinbo they have tests according to d gestational age.

And some of these tests cannot even be done here in naija.
There's urinalysis test strip, dey dip in urine usually just Sorts alot. And every clinic visit they do urinalysis at least for Dr E. Which is part of ur bill tho.
Ogtt is extreme Abeg lol. Glucose in urine which wld be seen in urinalysis. Or fbs ( which can be done first thing in morning.

My point is there are basic tests for pregnant women.
Which is hepatitis HIV syphilis (stds generally) genotype, blood group, PCV. Nd may be TORCHES
These are basic tests. ( I hope I'm not missing anyone out)

Importantly I doubt a teaching Hospital will wanna carry out that list of tests. What's the indication for the tests?
And if u say d Hospital requested, I'm sure they'll wanna see a letter.

When I travelled I did just the above and didn't do any extra test except Dr's E compulsory tests she does at 36 weeks.


BUT like nairaland culture alot is better than less.

i traveled with my car seat i used for first baby. it made up my 2nd luggage when leaving 9ja as i checked it in.

KayLayChi:


I guess the question is what if you are not travelling with a baby but you are coming back with one. For example, in my case, I have a Graco click n connect that I bought when I had my baby last year. I also intend to use it for my next baby so I want to travel with it.
I will be travelling alone, hubby might come later with the 2 kids if he is chanced.

Will the airline allow a preggie check in her travel set for free (knowing well say the baby dey belle). Anyone with this experience and please I'm flying Lufthansa.

I'm using kojic acid soap. Got off amazon. Body cream the white fair and white cream with oil. Lots ofwater and vegetables.
6weeks later, am so 92% close to pre pregnancy color except the midsection however.

Nnystc:
Pls what did you do to get Your complexion back?
In all my journeys i have never had it so bad... Azzin real Charcoal (Look in the mirror and see a golliwog staring back at you!)

Pls help me with leads so that i can buy any products here before coming back biko, ejor!

I got from port health before the airport at pH. But I think you can get from a hospital. I had already come to the airport, but the refused to let me fly, so I got from port health and got on the next flight.
I was 35 weeks but looked smaller, so the nurse wrote 29weeks.

feddy27:


Thanks dear. U got the report from ur hospital or port health?

Anywhere from 45mins depending on traffic and time of the day.

TripleKMama:
Congrats dear! Dis sounds like me. Pls how long was d road trip from JFK to NJ cos dats my route & wanna know my options. Thanks

Need a medical report past 28weeks. They did not let me fly till I got it.

feddy27:
Pls who has flown air peace recently? Are they preggy friendly? Just read on dia website dat dia policy for preggies is 28wks and i'm past the limit

Didn't know all this while! I don't want wat happened btw I and aero last year to happen again o!

Same day is more expensive.
Like annoyingly expensive.
Speaking from experience.

firsttymum:
but on the day of the trip.. It's actually cheaper

The closer it is the more expensive. But on the day it's cheaper.
That's if u walk to the counter or u call.but we too dey fear fear kikikikikikikikiki
Cc Nefertitiram

No issue about where you enter from.

Happpymum:
Hello happy mums, During my visa interview i told the V.O my POE is dallas Fort worth but due to how expensive tickets are i am thinking of going through new york with arik and take a local connecting flight from NY to Dallas, would i have an issue at the POE in NY?

if you have both receipt and letter, go with both. if not use letter alone. its about carrying documents that can favor your interview.

crystalsaint:
Good evening house...have been following this thread for awhile now...I can say I have learnt a lot...my interview is nextweek..please I want everybody to answer this question..abeg sir and ma...please I beg..is it compulsory I go with receipt and doctor 's letter..or can I go with the letter alone without the receipt...

Used St Mary's NJ.

Dr Pali.
Very understanding doc.


quote author=KayLayChi post=47759469]

Hello Tyrah, I just called St Mary's and they are affordable compared to other quotes I have gotten. However they claim to work with any Obgyn or certified midwife.

Have you used St Mary's, if you have which doctor did you use.

Thanks[/quote]

Please all mommas in Dallas, stay indoors and safe with this protests and random shooting.

temyb:


They are still in the NICU but coming out soon. Maybe I would do it that way but want to know if I can do it in Houston

yes you can do it in houston. I got my baby's SSN in Phoenix and arranged passport in California.

Get to the airport early and get it.
They said they give only on same day of flight.
And the do not issue fit to fly after 30 weeks. I flew 6 days ago, and i had to cry and beg (for over 4mins) and even write an undertaken of responsibility because i was flying at 33 weeks 5 days.

i

happytbaby:
Do you mean if i go to Port Health like 2days before my trip, they will not give me? I am planning to go a few days before my trip in order to know if there will be any issues so I can re-strategize accordingly.

MadameU:
Please i need help,Mamas and Papas away at the moment, please can anyone help out with making further enquiries about the old/reviewed MIHS maternity package, I have called and talked but they keep holding and passing without displaying any knowledge of the info i need from them and finished all the money i in my wallet yesterday on calls, My people abeg if you get that free local calls service please help me call them and ask if that maternity package of 2014 was offered at the low rates at the time because the US government covered a substantial part of the bill. Or was it actually a discounted rate offered to self pay patients Abeg, I even asked for Francisca Hernandez the then financial counselor but they claim shes no longer with them.
i am trying to get more facts and build on points to reapply.
My head is hot. thanks all.

I dont think the old MIHS bill is in relation to any US government anything. I asked and asked then because i wanted to be sure. It was a discounted rate offered to self pay patients. A couple other hospitals in Arizona had similar discounted rates. Tucson still offers such. So i dont think it was any government related.

Bisoye82:

Have you checked via airbnb.com.

If you want to use airbnb, ensure you tell your host you are pregnant and will have a baby at the latter end of your stay. I used airbnb on my first missionary journey and they host midstay started saying how she doesn't like children in her apartment.

Tvegas:
sorry about this,were you able to negotiate down for some discount?

.

yeah. its discounted already. its the hosp bill that 25k plus. they said its discounted like so oh.. im still on the mater.
ambulance/emergency didn't discount anything.
same with anesthesiologist.
some other services had some discount

though got a payment plan spaced through 12 months .

life and a 32000usd bill

cfcchick:

@lmo007, also in Mihs u has this experience? It will b nice if u can share plsss ss.

yeah.In Mihs.
Summary: All was fine. I enjoyed the care rendered until after delivery. When the effect of the epidural had worn out, the pain from the tear arose. then i was told i had a 4th degree tear with a 3.58kg baby. the delivery was just badly managed.
i was already dealing with the pain when 2 weeks later, i started bleeding. i bled till i passed out, and the ambulance was called. rushed to the emergency, scan showed remnant of placenta tissue. and i had a d and c.
and life continued.

WoW! sorry about your experience. Almost similar to my experience. Except that i had a 4th degree tear and the left some placenta in me which was discovered 2 weeks later, after i had almost bled to death.
All in all. We thank God for life.

bomly:
STORY STORY, STORYYYY

Hello House,

Let me begin by thanking you all for your concern and encouragement, it's nice to have a lovely family that cares. Anyway like I said my case was extremely different from those that I have read here but I'm still very much positive about life and feel strong.

I came to MIHS from Atlanta after going through this thread with so much review about their amazing services. On

i got my baby's BC the net day after leaving the hospital in phoenix

beginningathome:

It could take a little while to get your birth certificate. Sometimes 4 weeks, sometimes 8 weeks. Expect about that long. It's not really possible to hurry along the birth certificates, they kinda work on their own time frame.

Na so dem ask me oh....
Actually d get u EDD from it.
And d need a copy of it.

nefertitiram:

Hehehehe Na real proof of pregnancy! Your big belle nko?

For ur appt with d finiancial c., u need ur money, passport, and proof of pregnancy (1st scan result). Thats all.

Extended stay america on east oak is nice too. And its about 8mins[($11) cab to d hosp.
Its probably very slightly more expensive than crossland but u get a good bargain for a longer stay.
The reviews online r really opposite from what ive seen staying here.i dont understand this oyibo pple.
