Shawbabe:

Beryl15:


I plan to use DCMH, they have a self pay plan of 7,500 all inclusive. 6k for hospital and 1.5k Dr. Have not gotten one yet cos you have to pay the hospital bill before you're assingned one. I'll do that when I get there, don't want to make any payments from here and hear tori later.
Only problem is it's about an hour drive from Wilmington. St Francis and Christiana hospital are quite expensive.

Phema:

My dear, we are fine and y'all? One of us here admonished me for bringing my native food to America when I could have bought them in the USA. She said stock fish is cheaper in Oakland than in Naija. I don't know if everyone is going to Oakland and if it was an offense for me to have brought my native food.

She also reminded me that it is no big deal after all her hostess cooks Nigerian food for her weekly.

Not everyone stays with hosts and hostesses. So nothing beats eating my native meal twice a day. I have also visited the so called African shop here in El Paso to buy Maggi, it's not everything you want you see. But they are trying sha! I'm so glad my mum bought our food in Naija jare and I encourage any mum coming to bring as much as you can carry.

Newmum15:
Take your time to read through the threads....@shawbabe's specifically.There are lots of Atlanta mums using Northside and most questions have been answered.

Xenadarl:


Thanks, is that irrespective of weather ur having a vaginal or caesearean delivery? The hospital bill is still pretty expensive. Do you have someone who ll drive you to DCMH or do you plan on driving? Cause cab can be pretty expensive as well. Do you know exactly how much st Francis n Christians charge?

queenestty:



thanks newmum15, I did sha, did not really see details on northside specifically, let me go thru again.

or can you or someone help with the page.

thanks

Phema:


. My hubby said same. Used to call me Mrs Give Birth in the US. Lol. When i got back from my interview, he exclaimed "now, we can sleep in this house!!"

tosinajib:

Please what is this 'burden of proof' thing?

Beryl15:


Me too I'm waiting for an answer. Though I plan to fill the medic form, traveling at 35weeks.

Toks07:

When are you travelling?

Beryl15:


I think so but will call the hospital to confirm again. I'm staying with family so going there would not be a problem.
Someone who used Christiana paid 3.5k Dr fee and almost 13k for hospital(CS). Don't know about St Francis though.

sucre26:
Please does anyone knows what this means? I paid for U.S. visa fee 2 days back on Gtbank's website. I got a confirmation of the payment and the receipt. I've been trying to input the Reference no but I keep getting an error message. Has this ever happened to anyone?

dunwun:



Thought I was the only one. I'm having same issue, in fact i just sent them an email.

I guess it's due to the global IT issues they are experiencing. I suggest you keep trying.

lala4sure:





okiomah5000@yahoo.com not too sure of her direct phone number but you can try this +1 832-275-4099

Tvegas:


What is the addiction of Nigerian women to telemondo? That's how my sister packaged the wrong owo idana for my father in law cos she was watching Mexican movie.

I helped my wife ordered like 10 from amazon at a cost of $3 to $10 each. She kept herself busy with them before I got to US. Make sure you select those that have English subtitle.

Phema:


Yeeeeeeeee!! Congrats Mabels! Kiss your boy for me.

Hawttattoo:

Hello house! Long time. Got back to naija last weekend with my American princess!

So I promised to post the process of getting naija passport.

Naija passport is gotten from only three states in the US - Washington DC, Atlanta and New York.

Please note that baby has to be physically present at their office for photo capture unlike the naija visa that can be posted by mail.

I got my baby's passport in DC. First,you have to go to their website (https://portal.immigration.gov.ng/passport/epassport) to fill an application form and pay $77. Make sure u select the right country and state where u want it processed. You can only pay online with a card that has the same surname with your baby. I haven't done change of name on my accounts so couldn't pay online. It's written on the website payment can only be made online but it's not true. Just fill the application form and print it out. Then buy two separate money orders of $77 and $30 each. Then go to their office with baby's birth cert(original and fotocopy), two passport fotos of baby, copy of both parents datapage,online application form printout and money order of $77 and $30. You do not need 2 book an appointment b4 going.

Wen u get to the office,if you went with money order(didnt pay online),they will collect additional $35 from you and say it is to associate the money order to your application form(in my opinion,it was jst a way 2 get extra money *hisss*).

Then you submit all the documents and wait for baby's turn to capture. They say it takes 2weeks for it to be ready but you can get it same day(expedited). It cost $90 for expedited and it will be paid to their supervisor. They will try to form that it's legal but na lie. No receipt for it and you pay codedly. Naija pple are the same anywhere in the world! Smh. Wait for 30mins or an hour max for the passport to be ready.

There's a business centre at their office where fotocopy is done for $10 per page and they can also fill the application form for you there but don't know how much. It's best you fill the form and print from home and go with all you documents to save cost and time.

Please note that this procedure is for DC office as that's where I did my baby's own.

Congrats to all new mums and safe delivery to expectant mums.

This marks the end of this journey for first baby. Will still be here reading(and laughing at funny posts and fights) quietly. I'm also available to ans any questions.
