[quote author=firsttymum post=40502423] na to comot from carton. Anyway I came without load like that. And my hubby came with two boxes and his things basically entered his hand luggage (box) then baby is entitled to 1 box....

Use duffel bags for the diaper in place of boxes. They weigh less, Just buy padlocks to keep your stuff safe.

I use snug and dry. It's slightly bigger than others but I struggled not to waste my size 1 that much, cos it couldn't fit well after 3weeks and it's about 240 pieces per carton. I didn't buy new born size at all. My two kobo is buy very few count of 1 and 1 carton of size 2 and invest more on 3 and more more of 4.
Ok thanks alot [quote author=ayanuke post=40517142][/quote] that's my intention.... Thanks dear u far too kind wink

Yes, straight.. Swaddlers isn't as absorbent as snug & dry!! Used both, I can testify..

Tot I was alone on this, love snug and dry more.

missusadey:
I was told Walmart's parents choice diapers is better than huggies and pampers. I dnt know how true that is. Has anyone tried it out?

Heard so too, and bought just two packs, but I have not started using mine yet. My plan is if its not so good then I will use it day time and use the snug and dry at night. The wipe is very good and far better than the rubbish I bought at CVS in the name of wipe.

@ firsttymum how is the lo doing. Sorry have been off raider I am presently in Houston been around for over a week now, ported to Dallas for thanksgiving and to see few family members but am back to Houston now.

My POE was a breeze, the question asked was just how long I intend staying and my return ticket print out was checked.

I presently stay @ crescent plaza, I dare say have not seen any bus around I really don't want to be a bother to my host she has been driving me about and she has to go to work.

Also I have my lo with me, do I have to take my car seat with me everywhere if I intend to use Uber or i can hold her on my lap. Also where can I get a bus ride.
Pls help my numerous questions.

Not true. I have used all 3 and I can tell you that Parents choice diapers are not anywhere near huggies and pampers.

I used all of them and my personal favorite was the one from sam's club. Right choice or something like that, green pack

MODIFY: I WAS ON ABOUT WIPES. FOR DIAPERS HUGGIES IS A WINNER, never tried any other
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 3 by favoredgal: 9:43pm On Nov 29, 2015
Got some good Black Friday deals on bellefit( the postpartum girdle) and travel system (car seat and stroller) and some other stuff. Still in Naija but I ordered them down.

These deals are worth checking for those traveling soon

@favoredgirl thanks jare.you made me to quickly go and order the belle fit because I have been eyeing it since and procrastinating cheesy.
For baby food I used Similac Advance and Sam's club price is the best and it's a bigger tub too.Aveeno products,diapers,Gerber food are cheaper there too,especially when you are buying in bulk to ship home.prices are better than Walmart sef but na the same papa born them.

Bought loads of parent's choice formula though grin same friend told me abt it... all american formulars have same FDA standard..so far so good,no complaints.. my princess enjoys it..

Hello just seeing this post and I know it will be unfair not to give back at least to the stage I have reached. I am also an expectant triplet mama left Nigeria at 24weeks and I have been in El paso for 10wks now. @Nogen is my mentor ooo and as she has said except you are staying with family there is no way you can cope by yourself till 2 weeks before delivery. Truth be told there is no EDD for a triplet mama it all depends on your progression. My Dr first said my CS would be scheduled for 32wks but as I progressed she realised I and the babies were doing good so she keeps moving it by one week which is good for me cause tge longer you can keep the babies in ghe shorter NICU time they will have. To be honest triplets birthing is expensive even in El Paso (which is considered to have the best deal price wise) because compared to a singlet you will do ultra sounds every visit with your Dr for 3 babies and that's extra cost and also you still have the "unknown" NICU bill but it's all worth it at the end. Be strong do your research and if you need any info you can pm me. I will be glad to help as much as I can.
