Used them last month, though their website says they don’t require fit to fly, their personnel at the counter demanded for it (maybe because I was quite heavy). It has to be the fit to fly gotten from the port health which is a pretty must straight forward process.

Oke2017:

Hello house,

Thanks alot for the numerous nd unquantifiable experiences shared on this platform.

I stayed at Richmond nd my apatyment was nt far to Oakbend. I took a tour of both methodist nd oakbend b4 i setrled for oakbend. Used dr. Z, by the way Oakbend staff are soo lovely nd Dr. Z is a wonderful doc, even though he didnt take my delivery, i enjoyed all my doc visits wit other mamas nd d weekly visits to d kroger store closeby.

So to the bills:

Oakbend 2500
NICS 416. Stayed in d hosp for 2 nights nd 3 days. NICS counted 3 days.
I got to d hosp on sat 11pm nd had baby at 2am sunday morning. Left d hosp on tues 7pm

Birth cert - $23. Picked it up at d countu office after 4days

Hello mamas and papas....... In the spirit of giving back to this wonderful forum where i have learnt so much! I dont comment much except when i can add value but i love to read, cos the amount of information here is crazy!

My story goes thus...

We (Hubby, Son, Cousin and I) departed Lagos on Thursday 10 September with BA... that MM1 is a nightmare!

Hubby refused that i request for wheel chair, so after checking in we just strolled to the fast track! I no even look anybody face, was waiting for someone to ask me if i had a bizness class ticket, i for swear for the person cos at this point i was already tired. Finally boarded and the flighht was full! sha squeezed my belle into my seat and endured the flight for 6 hours of restlessness. Arrived London and chilled 3 hours for our flight to Houston! Luckily the flight was empty as we had expected! So i just stretched my round body on the full length of one of the middle seats and SLEPT! It was fantastic! No noise, nothing!

Fast forward toPOE in Houston, there was only one other preggy lady and infact we travelled together from naija. The queue was quite long cos i think about 2 planes arrived at the same time. Anyways we were ushered to one white man and the conversation went as follows:

CBP Officer: Are you all a family (we filled to separate forms one for us and one for my cousin)
CBP Officer: You have to separate for Legal reasons
CBP Officer: Why are you here?
Hubby: For vacation and childbirth
CBP Officer: How long are you here for?
Us: 2 months
CBP Officer: You are gonna pay ur bills right?
Us: Definitely
CBP Officer: How much have you paid?
Me: We have paid all that was quoted by the hospital and doctor.
CBP: Accommodation?
Us: We are staying in a rented apartment
CBP Officer: How much do you have on you
Us: $8,000 between us.
CBP: Any food stuff? Egusi, ogbona, Melon?
Me: Yes to all with a smile.

Na so he fingerprint us and stamps us in till March 10. No secondary inspection. My cousin was just asked why she was here and how much she had on her and was also stamped in till March 10. On our way out we were directed to Agriculture where they carried only my sons indomie! I nearly cried but i was kinda expecting it sha!

Just chilling at home now legs crossed and my cousin just made one kain spaghetti stir fry! Waiting for my first appointment on Tuesday!

It was all favour from GOD! Wishing everyone a successful entry!

One Love....

Congrats on your successful POE but there is absolutely nothing like no limitations on a visiting visa. Only immigrants and United States citizens have such privilege. When you are less busy you can find out your limits here:

My POE experience.

Flew BA to NY and the flight was really full for both legs of the trip (Los-Lon and Lon-NY). we were just 2 preggos on both legs. was the very last person on the line when we got to NY so an officer walking past asked me to leave the queue and she took me to the front.

Met a nice looking black lady.
CBP: How are you doing today?
Me: Very well thanks
CBP: why do you have so much money on you (from the landing card)
Me: i am here for vacation and to have my baby
CBP: How long are you here for?
Me: 12 weeks
CBP: who will take care of you while you are here
Me; My uncle and his wife
CBP: where do you work and what do you do for them?
Me: told her and i just opened the file i have with me to bring out the letter from my work so she saw my complimentary card and picked it up, looked at it and gave me back (didnt check the letter). Then she asked me to step aside that she needs to talk to her colleague (a white late). The white lady left her cubicle and came into the black one's own and the were looking at the computer with my passport, the she stepped out again and called me.

CBP: there is no crime in you coming into the US to have your baby but i believe you know the law and know you have to leave by september29.
Me: I know and i am not staying that long. Then she stamps my passport and son's
CBP: you declared food? what food is it
Me: its grinded corn called pap, looks like custard when you make it
CBP: whats it for?
Me : for lactation when the baby comes
CBP: does it work? i gat to try it
Me: sure it does

she then asked me to get my bags and at the second gate i met an officer who only asked if my hubby is coming, if i had my first child in the US and i should fill a form where i stated the exact amount of money i had on me.

No documents checked, i was even over prepared for them. nothing asked about hospital or doctor.

Had my first appointment at Wyckoff, same experience as remzy2015, met a midwife who accepted some tests i brought and asked that i do others. paid only the $130 for the visit. Met Christine too and she confirmed there are no hidden charges except the baby needs a hight level of care. I have not been given a doctor yet.

remzy2015:

Hello ; please how much were you charged or all the test. I am surrently using wyckoff as well. Also how many times dis you pay the 130 dollars for doctor's appointment.

I hope to hear from you soon
