My Dear I call it Monitoring Spirit and its disgusting.
cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy Do you attend mountain of fire?

Me I really don't see anything bad in it so far the person asking is within my inner circle. If it's someone am not close to or someone who naturally pokes her mouth where it doesn't belong, I simply just avoid the question with a stylish smile and if the nosy person asks again (some people are that shameless) I would just jokingling say "God is the alpha and omega jare" wink

OK. For those interested in Nevada birthing as I've received a lot of pm about this...
The hospital is RENOWN hospital in RENO, NEVADA. they have an OB package rate for those who want to pay cash which includes $2150 for vaginal delivery and 2 days hospital stay, an extra $450 for twin delivery. $4500 for planned CS delivery and 3 days hospital stay., an extra $850 for twin delivery via CS.
The prenatal package costs $1500 includes labs, ultrasound, newborn care at the nursery (not NICU) including baby's first paediatrician visit, first vaccines for you & baby, postnatal visit, Circumcission for extra $100. Extra cost for anaesthesia is $1200, which I presume is also same for epidural.
Let me say that all of this payments will be made before delivery.
I got to stay in a cosy private room that had extra bed for my help. They served me & my help meals at no extra costs. The staff were exceptional. I didn't need to come to hospital with anything, I mean anything, every thing was provided except my cell phone of course.
I had a planned CS and my total bill was $7300.
I hope this helps ladies.
Thanks Nelly. Please are these bills the current bill or the one you used in 2012? 2012 is about 3yrs ago; alot might have changed.

How about accommodation? Where did you stay and how much did it cost pls?

Most of the problems we face in our homes can be avoided/solved with PATIENCE. Trust me on this, I learnt the hard way. embarassed It just takes one of you to give that ultimate sacrifice. Try it.

Hey ladies. Good to be here again. Does anyone have any useful info for birthing in the San Francisco bay area, California? I had a baby in Renown hospital in Reno, Nevada in 2012 and got a very excellent service with a very affordable rate. I had a planned C section but because of reasons of convenience, I wish to be close to family in California. Any info will be appreciated pls. Anyone interested in Nevada should contact me for further details. I may not mind Nevada again if I get someone to plan with. April/May is a good time.
Can u pls send me a pm? I was unable to send you one. Thanks

The eyebrow is perfect! So natural and neatly done, I give you a 100%. However, I don't like the application of the eye shadow, looks too plain and ordinary. You could have used different shades of blue and still achieve the desired result. Nice work though wink It takes practice.

Hello all! I noticed that people don't really talk much about getting apartment on Craiglist. I was going through the site some days ago and saw some cheap apartments that can be shared between two/ three people thereby saving a lot of money.

Pleases is there any disadvantage of going through this route instead of the usuall intown suites et al.

If your husband is a monster, then you are also a monster! I totally abhor it when you female monsters cause problems in your homes and come here to blab. Tell us your own faults and the evil you perpetrated before you come here to disparage a great gentleman like your husband. Witches like you have been attacking their husbands at will and generally causing mayhem, when the man in a bid to save himself deals you a handsome blow to reset your brain, you come here to spew thrash.. Wet dat your husband sef, let me give him a high five! He deserves a God bless you pat in the back!



dinachi:
Perhaps you don't need any advice at all. I will never tolerate anybody coming here in the public to run down their supposed beloved spouse without at least showing clearly they are not at fault. I can only comment based on what you wrote.. If I got you clearly, you were not the original target for the pounding. How did the 'annointing' transfer from the girl in question to you? Did you confront your husband? Did you attack him in a bid to save your girl and put him on the defensive? Give a clearer picture and stop calling your husband names.

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! You repulse me... I pity the unfortunate woman who will end up with you. *spits in disgust* Tufiakwa!!!

Kindly send a mail to the Lagos or Abuja embassy where you got your visa and explain to them that your reason for travelling to the USA has changed. You have to print out their response and go along with all your documents and receipts to show them at the POE. With that done, you should be fine.
You didn't even ask if she was pregnant before the interview and other circumstances surrounding her interview.
Let's not abuse this change of intent thing. With the way things are going the letter will be taken with a pinch of salt at POE, and may eventually stop working. Thereby, making the innocent suffer.

Little wonder the Lagos embassy changed their tone of response. Some folks will intentionally lie at interview or claim not to be pregnant with the intention of writing a letter to the embassy afterwards. Nigerians, we always abuse things #DontKnowWhyWeAreFondOfThat

Most Banks sell to just staff. But Diamond bank sells to customers too. PTA rate was N184 to a dollar on Friday.
oluwafunkenny:
For accountholders_ Access Bank, Keystone Bank. FirstBank will do PTA for you but wont give cash, it will be loaded on a card in which you can withdraw abroad this may not suffice for POE solution but is cheaper compared to withdrawing from Nigerian debit card. Also there are some banks that can still sell dollars for you by bidding through their BDC and avail you dollars- Enterprise Bank.

Do you mean Access and Keystone gives cash?


diva4eva:
As for PTA, I got mine from Diamond Bank and they'll give you cash but you must have an account with them. Diamond does not give more than $4000 as PTA for one person and they do not give PTA for children less than 14 years.Was hoping i could use my 5 year old son's ticket as well to buy another $4000 but they refused. You'll need to present a copy of ur flight ticket and your intl passport.
Thanks kiss

oluwafunkenny:
Why not change the Nigerian Naira in your account to dollars through PTA to have more cash at hand. One of my customers was delayed for more than three hours at the German embassy simply because the cash he had on him wasn't enough to purchase what he came to buy, he showed them the statement and their question was that if you have the cash in your account and you have not exceeded the limit then why didn't you change it. They thought he had no money in his account despite showing them statement with bank stamp.

The bank headoffice line on the statement was called and they requested for a statement to be scanned to them before he was allowed to enter. though have not heard this from US POE but is better to be harmed and not be ridiculed.
Hello oluwafunkenny. Speaking of PTA, does it still work? I heard banks don't do it anymore. Please can you name any bank still offering the service at the moment? Thanks

. Delivery: 1200 for Dr. Maradani  .   Hospital and anesthesiologist will be billing you separately for their services.

Visits are $60/ each .   I am anticipating about six visits.
You will need an ultrasound for growth to access the size of the baby to see if normal delivery is viable at a cost of $100.

We may have to order a lab to get your values assessed by a local  lab which might be around 100$.
The final determination is available only after Dr. Maradani assesses you on the first visit.

We flew the same flight. I think I saw you. I am the lady with the very big bump. No other preggie had a bump as big as mine ( am sure you would ve noticed) lol. In fact Arik rejected my Doctor's fit to fly, and referred me to Ports health and immediately they saw me they guessed my age, without even examining me. Of course I dint allow them write their own report cos it would ve worsened my case. I just went back to Arik and told them I couldn't locate the Ports Health office. Lol
Wow. Congrats o. How many weeks gone are you abeg? And what's the limit for pregger women to fly with Arik? And why did you cancel your el paso plan? Did you get a cheaper package in Newyork?
