Finally happy to port to this thread after viewing from the sidelines for over two years. My journey is still very far but God is able to see me through

Mine was just confirmed by my doctor today so let the journey begin...

Welcome and happy bumping

omodadi:
Not in my package. But she offers at 70 , 2 of us. So trying to see if ok.

Ook, maybe you can use uber then.

omodadi:
Please can anyone tell the transportation cost from IAH to Soulcare. Trying to go for a good deal pls. Thanks

Is the transportation cost not included in your package?
You can Google airport shuttle to check price,
Their prices depend on the type of bus you want, you should get one within $40 range more or less but no be only you go dey inside the car o.

It was indeed a bumpytuesday.

Am 5 weeks and a day today according to LMP. Am yet to register for ante-natal because Teaching hospital staff here are on strike plus I was told to wait till about 12 weeks. Me no want class captain o, I don't want to port to January... ,,

Welcome,
You really came prepared but as you no wan take class captain, pay wait for your teamies to come and announce cos very soon dey go full ground here. Enjoy your stay

sugah:
Kai, its pretty difficult searching for info on these threads if you don't know the exact search criteria.

Please anyone that has filled a DS-160 form recently should educate me on how to by-pass the passport photo upload page and submit the application.
Been trying to get my mum's photo for two weeks now but it's difficult at her current location.

Is there a new development on the passport upload? The last time I checked, you can submit without uploading your passport and just go to the embassy with your passport on your interview day.

sayoberry:

Okay, since time neva reach wey I go do threadcuties , make I follow for the thread bump . But make person no comment or shout ooo, dis bump na real bump . #teamaugust# #iyaibeji# #2ndtimemum#

Chou, this your 21week bump is huge, are you sure you ain't having twins?

@ enkaydewdrop, nothing to worry about. Am sure your doctor also told you that

Flourish89 and brownsmoothie, una bump and gown fine ooo

Ehe, mamas pls try and snap thru your side view as in side bumpy instead of front bumpy cos the side shows the size of the bump more . See me campaigning for bump lol upon I no get bump to show.

mumsgirl27:
Good Mornin mamas, My baby girl i 7months going to 8months, her weight is 10kg, and she is crawling bit by bit, she stands for long when holding something, infact she likes standing, My major concern is that she hasn't started crawling fast, no teeth apart from these she is a healthy baby. Hope she isn't late for crawling?or should I just encourage her to stand more?

It's nothing to worry about. She may likely walk fast. Some babies don't really follow all those steps, don't be surprised to see her moving while holding onto something even before she masters how to crawl properly.

fitmaama2:
Hi Everyone,

My very first post here and i am very glad i found this thread 2 weeks ago.

Texas?
More than half of the people here gave birth in Texas,for example Houston ,Dallas, Elpaso
I think you have to ask your friend that will be hosting you where exactly she's staying in Texas and not just what state she's in.

I love your bump @ mitchyy and enkaydewdrop, it's just very moderate. My kind of bump those years .
BTW, if oda mamas no wan show Der bump, me sef go show my big postpartum bump kikikikikiki

Fvine:
Don't be soo hard on yourself, you're nursing nah

Just wondering what's your height?

Thanks dear.

Am abt 5.7feet, am I short? Lol

Fvine:
ozycy, Hope we're all still on the weight loss and health path? Abeg whichever healthy weight loss route we decide to take, let's persevere and will laugh last and best.

My dear am still gathering strength to start. Am weighing 80kg now I can't believe this lol.
You need to see my tommy looking like a 5 month preggy even dou my tummy went so flat after delivery. See what carbohydrate has done to me.
For now I take very long walk few tyms a week with hubby but that's not doing much, I will upgrade very soon. This breastfeeding is not even helping matters.

Chinwendym:
Thanks Fvine! I'm starting the egg fast today, I was able to convince my

My weigh in this morning is 113kg
Haven't had breakfast yet!
Starting with 6 boiled eggs! Black coffee and lots of water!
Wish me luck

Nice, if you do finish, am the next in line

mitchyy:
Honestly, its becoming frustrating. I live in Abijo area, close to you. On Friday, it was N1500 for 5 litres, Saturday it was N2000 for 5 litres, yesterday its now N2500 for 5litres. Plus no stable light for the past one month. They only flash it. I almost cried from frustration yesterday

Arrh Arrrrrrh, kpele
This too shall pass.

balogunsaheed:
My baby is just two days old. Av been unable to breast feed him. My nipple cudnt stay in his mouth. Just not to MK him go hungry I gave him nan1. My nurse suggested I get a breast pump. Cause my breast is so full. Can't sleep. Any idea to ease it ? Pls ooooooo.

Get baby to latch on well
You can as well get a breast pump as suggested and pump out the breastmilk and feed him so as to reduce the breast engorgement. I pumped and pumped cos even after plenty sucking, my breast was still so full and hurting.
You can massage with warm water and towel and press out the milk manually if you don't have the pump right away, kpele

tbash16:
Please how much does it cost to add a baby's ticket to mine, we tried getting frm nigeria they said their policy has changed and frm us we are getting 2 costs frm differnt agent so pls hw much is it and can one get it on the day of departure.thanks

You can always do that on the day of departure. Just hold enough cash.
Some airline will advice you to wait till you get there before making payment . You can call their US customer service line for clarification

adycatus:
Good day all, pls I want to find out how someone can go about with booking of wheelchair while travelling, it's it from the airline, can it be done online or at their office and do they charge for it. Thanks

You can book it while checking in at the check in counter. Remember to book for all leg of your journey if you are having a connecting flight.
It's free

Mumtwins2:
Hello everyone .... Please I am a little confused how can one book a return ticket , do I leave it open or book a date for return cos I am really confused . Thanks in advance

You have to choose a date for return while booking your ticket.
Pick a date say from three weeks to one month after EDD or thereabout depending on how soon you want to return and how fast you can process baby's documents

enkaydewdrop:

flakies09:
Good day mum's in house,is it advisable to introduce formula to my little prince @3mnths ?

If you are not lactating well or breastmilk doesn't satisfy him , you can supplement with formula

nggie:
Lucky you! Mine is 10 months old n we still wake up to 4 times at night to suck. To sleep nko, that one na war.

Mine will be 6months next week and we are warming up to start eating adult food,cereal formula, pap and water. I can't wait

Congrat tktgal for successful entry and for standing your ground, sound like same lady that interviewed me, they will want you to agree on their own point and not yours. If they meet many of your type, they will stop being overzealous
Welcome to Amelica

mamadsquare:
Good morning wonderful mamas. As you care for your lo's and go to great lengths to keep them safe , may God take care of you too and you will reap great rewards for your labor over them.

Amen

stadora:
same wit my prince, he sleeps max of 2 hrs even after takin pap, thats if there s lite and the fan is on. If not he wakes up in les dan 2 hrs and its only bm dat puts him back 2 sleep.
I was thinkin that by now, he ll b sleepin longer hrs.
My felow october teammates. How long does your lo sleep at a stretch?

Well done o
My baby sleeps around 8pm (depending on the tym she takes her bath) if I bath her earlier, I just put her to bo.oby and off she goes till around 1am
I breastfeed her asap and off she goes again till 6am and if I never ready for her matter, I breastfeed her and off she goes again till I wake her to have her bath around 8-9amor she wake up due to noise.
So we practically feed twice or at most 3tym at night .
She sleeps well during the day if there's no noise. Am lucky mehn lol

blaize777:
Hello house, pls flight ticket direct is crazy esp delta 600plus and United about 450plus but emirate is far far cheaper but my hubby is worried if can I cope at 35wks with connecting flight .pls advice cos pta is already giving me too much stress even as a banker

Where are you departing from? I think you will see something within the range of #300k if you are leaving from Abuja but they all have connecting flight, no direct

Na this kyn team captain I dey like @ BritneyStacy, gingering and dragging out her team members.
Abeg if some team are dulling, overtaking is allowed .
