Just told my hubby same thing this morning o... he seems to be getting more popular...


He can never win by the Grace of God,because his motives are very bad for immigrants.No one with such bad immigration motives has ever won US presidential Election,So he is bound to fail.

Thanks Hawttattoo. I think i'll do it myself by getting a visa via Atlanta. I start today and will send it out probably tomorrow. Which doctor delivered your baby? The lactation specialist there, the tall lady only sees moms that are doing exclusive breastfeeding. She's a Port Harcourt person and we quickly identified with each other.
She did well to drop a manual Medela breast pump which was helpful and got my wife started. The others came freely lovely drinks from the pantry room, food, baby blankets, similac et al. For moms using Dr. Morgan you can ask the nurses if you are entitled to these little perks.

P.S I know it's been said here before but ensure you let your pediatrician or whoever will be performing your child's circumcision what you want. Tell them naija style and show them a pencil sketch of what you want if you think it will help them else you may end up doing it again.

Portharcourt woman? Pops collar ok na lets go there...
naija style got me rolling ...... Hahhahahhahaha not to sound too vulgar mayb that's why white women like naija "tin" grin

You gave us a clue when you commented on the Dr that gave her POE story recently. Something about a Dr's response to giving birth in America.

pls off topic question:

Has anyone gone to DHL at Muri Okunola recently?

Do you know it one can take passport photograph there? A friend wants to go for Dropbox asap and needs the US standard passport photograph...

Thanks house.

Yes you can take passport photo just around there. Ask the security personnel at the DHL building. It takes less than 3 minutes.

Finally got my bill from Pediatrix... They slammed me with a bill of $2150 undecided called to find out what they r charging me for.. They said blood work for the baby, circumcision $650. Bla bla bla...after much talking and screaming they gave 30% discount reducing it to $1450. But I'm still not gonna pay that cos the circumcision wasn't even done well. Upon the drawing they gave my son " corner kick prick".. cry

@Fizzywah please help a sister and send that Oga at the top number. Thanks

Nawaa for this northwest pediatrician's bill. let me even cancel their name from my list. About the circumcision, I think to avoid the risk of doing it over there and not being satisfied with their work which may result to re-doing it here in Naija or just managing it like that, we should try and come back as early as possible and do it our way here. Some people here did it and am sure their baby were perfectly fine afterwards. My opinion dou.
