Please where was the circumcision done?

Not entirely. ..
Had my LO circumcised for $160.00...
It depends on the doc's practice plus they apparently got different styles and procedures.
The choice us urs.

Hello House... I'm finally in Atlanta after almost a year of planning (even before i got pregnant..lol). POE story later.

Welcome to the land of expensive things. My dear I had to budget over 10k dolls. Common epidural is $2000. Biko is your research showing any cheaper? Share with a sister pls.

The incidence of back pain post delivery is almost 50%
Predisposing factors are varied, but EPIDURAL IS NOT ONE OF DEM.
Summary, with or without epidural, if u will have back pain, u will have it,

That's good to know, who knows might try epidural for my 3rd baby. I sha had my $500 for epidural and was screaming for it when the pain became so unbearable but I was checked and was fully dilated so there was no need for it.
I sha flexed that $500 I used it to give myself a special treat.

I agree with Jayjay4lyf. Though we cant understand science itself sometimes esp when we add ' in future"

It's the future I'm worried about cause I have had slip disc twice at this my young age.
Well I dey talk because I get option if I did CS, epidural wouldn't have been optional.
I just remembered like 2 nurses came to see me just because the heard a patient didn't use epidural, they were amazed and kept on hailing me that I'm a strong woman...

Congrats, now that's what I'm talking about. In my next life if God wants to bless me with twins it had better be a boy and a girl, not tripped about same sex twins and it's get creepier when they are now identical...

The flight was uneventful . Got up a few times to walk ard but the journey was soooo long. Started regretting not breaking d journey,like staying in uk then continue the journey after a few days.
We got to ATL quite early and had to wait in d aircraft a lil. When we got to POE, i had just abt 2 pple in front of me and the officer was a black guy. And it went thus:
Me: Hello
CBP: Hi. How are you doing?
Me: fine. Thank you
CBP: Are you pregnant?
Me: yes
Cbp: and you are here to have your baby?
Me: yes
Cbp:can i see your documentation?
I gave him the doctor's correspondence and hospital quote.
Cbp:wats your dr's name?
Me: Dr Rosenburg
Cbp: hospital?
Me: Northside
Cbp: can you speak out louder? Now speak to me like you're talking to your husband
I laughed and repeated the answer.
Cbp: have you made any payment?
Me: no but i have my money with me.
Cbp:how much?
Me: $11k5
Cbp: you will need to fill a form at the customs. How many days did you spend d last time you were in the US?
Me: 10days.
Cbp :stamps me in. Take care and have a safe delivery.
Me:Thank you
I headed to the exit and was directed to customs and that was where d real drama began.

This guy scattered all my bags. He checked every nook and cranny. r

Congrats on your safe entry ma.

I just had to comment on the bolded portion. Guys, let's plan our trip at the right time such that we won't need to carry any wahala document thereby taking unnecessary risk.

I saw the Abuja NIV viewing this thread yesterday and when they read stuffs like this they will further validate the fact that Nigerians don't have integrity. Such things have ripple effect on innocent applicants who get maltreated at the POE or denied visa at the embassy. We already have a poor image as a country let's do our bit to clean it up.
