Congrats @iolite88. That was serious favour.Wishing you the best oh. Don't mind that silly German Dr. ( I think he needs re-education..23 weeks is more than early for you to travel safely.. whats his problem? lipsrsealed). This your 48hrs layover no easy oh but its all good. Abeg take your time rest well before heading to Elpaso oh. Wishing you safe supernatural delivery.

I trust you have made proper arrangements for your return. Thank GOD for my mum's assistance during mine. I can't imagine how you will cope with three babies (can't you tell how jealous I am..lol..no need for 2nd missionary journey..dh must be a great scorer.. grin). Abeg send ome multiple baby dust my way, I only want 2 for my next trip. On my gosh.. I can't stop smiling.. so so happy for you. GOD bless.

Nne, i didnt use the birth center for my visa application oo. I only asked about using it on the thread. The fact dat it was so cheap was quite tempting but DH no wan hear am esp given that its my first baby. Although i know of two nigerian mums in Houston at the moment using the birth center. They used a diff doctor's correspondence and hospital for their visas n ported to the birth center.

Hospital service was top notch, Love the Dr too. He is white but he has got an NGO in Africa n knows alot about Nigeria. I got loads of freebies from the hospital. In all, i had a swell time
Wow, this would have been a very good deal if not for the huge hospital fee. Any idea on how much for vaginal delivery?

Part 2
Flight to Frankfurt was smooth had a premium seat plenty leg room (mind you I didn't buy a premium economy seat I just paid extra 35 dollars for leg room seat and I got a premium economy seat). Arrived Frankfurt and got wheel chair service thank God for that cause the houston boarding gate na like lagos to ibadan. After a 48hrs layover left for Houston had 2 empty seat beside me so I was able to stretch and sleep well.

Hi, Please where did you pay for the extra leg room? Online, agent or their office? I need this info like yesterday. Thanks!

Am also a Dec mom, expecting twins, heading to Dallas by Oct too. i contacted dr. dennis abbass (takes delivery at doctors Hospital) & got a total cost of $12,000 for CS (hosp, dr, pead, anaesth,hearing test). Still looking around for something cheaper though.

For all its worth, I highly recommend Dr. Abbas and Doctors Hospital. I got an exceptionally good service from both and I don't regret a dime spent. You probably won't get anything cheaper in Dallas when you do the math and you can always negotiate for discounts with all associated service providers. But of course it's always worth shopping around for cheaper deals.

Good evening sweet mommas n papas, pls I rem recently someone was denied in lagos and she didn't have much time, but was told to check at midnight that she will get an earlier date, I was late for my interview and was turned back, so I have to reschedule cos their is a new policy that started on Thursday, if you are 90mins late,you have to reschedule, I was able to get Oct 29 Abuja but am hoping I can still get an earlier date, my question is this, how many times can I cancel and reschedule. Secondly how do I go about it. In case there is anybody in the house that can help get an earlier date,pls I don't mind, am on my knees. Cos by Oct 29 I will be over 35weeks. Thanks. Happy Sunday.
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 2 by anonymousmum: 7:33pm On Sep 20, 2015
^^^ sound fishy.

@ Bukolet the only way that I am aware of getting an earlier date is to keep checking, everyday to see if there is an earlier date. I think someone posted earlier that there is a particular time of the day that is a good day to check.

This one of PM on top of this matter, just be careful. Don't be desperate and fall for any potential scams. No offence, but we have to put it out there.

Cheers.
