Get someone to buy it for you in najia office. thats what we are advised on this thread and I know someone who personally benefited from this advice. cost of ticket was 10% of parent ticket.

When U guys say u have been reading the thread or have gone through the thread and yet u ask questions that have been answered by different people over and over again.. Really makes me wonder...

I also wonder too, I don't think they read it cos if you have read this thread then you will know how to process baby's docs. I didn't have to ask any question when I was processing my baby's because I read through and made notes.

hi people,
just realised i won't be able to carry more than 3K $ for my trip. People on this thread usually carry huge amounts (7-15K$)
do you think it's risky to have so little in cash and tell them that i have the rest on my cards (& don't like travelling with too much cash )
could they turn me back because of that ? undecided

Sure?? When the destination is not one of the states in the union ??

Is it not same as a connecting flight situation?
Pls what do you think? Any ideal?. so I know how to package myself cos am pregnant.
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 3 by shelly23: 2:10am On Oct 23, 2015
I don't think you'll have to go through immigration since technically you're in transit and not leaving the airport. At least that's how it is in Europe, i've not had to transit in the US, so I might be wrong.

As for packaging yourself, if the plan is to hide your pregnancy, you're OYO, good luck with that.

I left with $1400(though I had paid my hospital fee)I had copies of my statement of accounts to prove i had the rest in my bank cards..a few people left with less than 7k...just be prayerful and be bold to defend ur self if the need arise...@shawbabe left with $40 cash

( thank God, didnt want any bruce/caitlyn jenner things after buying too much pink!) and it was through a VBAC too. God is indeed very faithful. I thank Him cos it has ended in praise!

Hello Arabanbi007 saw your post, I am still looking for a roommate you can PM if you are still interested. As for doctors, I know a very good one at west Houston my friend just had her baby there yesterday and mother and child are all doing well. I also know one that is also good at oak bend because I currently have a friend using the doctor now. I use Ben tub because I like the Ben tub experience.

Thanks! I did, but buying online seems a better option for me.

sorry to ask,but why do you want to go to dallas....do you have a host there or you will rent an apartment? because there are other places you can get doctor"s letter from...

Yes.
@Amgizzie

Why do you want to go to Dallas or Miami? What's the attraction for you?

El paso and Houston are cheaper and more straightforward cities for you to consider. Especially if you don't have anyone you can stay with

I think another issue is not taking pen and paper to jot down, if u can't do dat whenever u see useful info you can just munch/ screengrab/take a screen shot, that way its saved on your fone for future reference
