@merrymum, God bless you for this info. But I don't know how long it'll take for them to process it. I intend leaving on Sunday before, but baby's US PP is not even ready. Applied over 4weeks ago, (Expedited), only to receive a letter that babys name is printed, sign...blablabla, in a nut shell, we sha re-fill the form and sent it back (expedited too O), and we're still waiting. So I'll just shift my ticket and Wait for the Naija PP stuff.(Additional expenses). It is well.

@All, pls for mamas that uses Sebamed products on LO, did you get from US? If yes, pls kindly tell me the stores, so I can get for lo. They seems not to know what it is here. Or if there's any other lotion like it (Tested and Trusted) pls help. My baby is kinda breaking out, and Pediatrician said I should get Cetaphil, but not helping. Pls TIA

Try get Aveeno Baby(Eczema therapy moisturizing cream). When you get to Naija, try get your hands on the original local Shea Butter +mix a bit of skineal in it.

Better leg room. Wifi on board. Charging point. Lavatory present. The bus is hardly full. I believe they have luggage size requirement but nobody carried plenty luggage.
You can also try China bus. Cheaper with fluctuating wifi and no charging point but d prices are more stable than Greyhound. And I believe u can get away with plenty ngwongwo (luggage). Good leg room too

Like play like play I will run into u someday, God that is my route all d time.. Nyc to dc/ NYC 2 Baltimore via grayH n chinco busses depending on my owo n mood!!!

Baby is breaking out where?
Is it on the face?

Are u rubbing oil on her head? If yes stop it for now cuz I'm surprised you say cetaphil isn't working. It has zero scent so shouldn't provoke any allergic reaction.

Be careful with this

The last time they came to Houston in October, 2015 people that processed passport got it after 3 months.

It wasn't instant in anyway. If u came for missionary waka I advice you just do visa or ETC and be on your way

ZillyO try corporate messengers I used them from the uk to ship a lot of stuff and they delivered to my door step but they were a little bit pricey, someone has also used them from NY to send stuff to me and they were efficient, if you look them up online you'll see their Website, i'm sure others on this thread will have other shipping agents they have used actually some of these shipping agents online are scams o

Congrats @Toludo

I keyed into your prayer with a resounding "Amen" as my long awaiting baby in my womb just stopped growing and I am scheduled for evacuation tomorrow. I have cried and questioned God but I have learned to understand that even how the conception became possible in the first place is a miracle. My faith is that God who made it possible for others including your wife will answer us again and this time it will be permanent.

Congrats once more grin.





Just saw your post;


I want to encourage you this morning, i've been trying to find time to write to you. Well , my wife and i was in that situation some years ago, married for 3 years then , no issue, no miscarriage and no hope......she is a young doctor full of life and dreams. Then , the forth year , you know all these pregnancy, it started showing she then decided to go for a test ....gbam baby was there But with an issue.....Fibroid ! . I SAID GOD ! after 3 years , now a baby and A FIBROID! ......i cried

Real issue started; the consultant was like...relax nothing can be done , advise my wife to have a full rest ,that the fibroid will be growing along with the baby &that we should observed. Men, my wife went through hell and at the end, we lost the baby on a xmas eve, imagine. The next thing was evacuation of the fetus , wahala and the psychological recovery that followed...long hisss


The following year, she went in for surgical operation to remove the Fibroid which was successful to God be the glory

In between, we have gone for all sort of test even procured an IV WATCH!, my wife bought that from US to monitor her ovulation period which has a perfect timing but not God's timing

The following year, she started to feel funny , went for test ..gbam.. confirm pregnancy!.......that same year she delivered baby boy in US and last year again ...a baby girl in US again...awesome God

Lesson:
i. Be patient with God he alone knows the time, month and year
ii. The IV WATCH did'nt see the baby coming
iii. Don't be down , let this situation toughened you up
iv. Be very close to Him
v. And believe you me ,yours must surely come in Jesus Name , Amen!

Hey guys!

First time posting on this thread (finally!!!) though I've been following for a few years now.

I'm a June mama, my itinerary centers around Atlanta, and I'm still working on getting a favorable air ticket deal.

God bless all mothers/mother's to be in the house, and to all angel mama's, God has got you covered, your joy will come.

Hi guys,
Just a quick one please.
Im pregnant with my second baby and I am due in june. I have a B1/B2 which I applied for in October last year for vacation purposes. However I have not utilized the visa yet as I want to just use it for birth purposes as there will be no need to travel for holiday since I am due in june anyway.
So my question is do I need to send a mail to the embassy informing them of my change of plans or I should just ignore.
NB: I have all my documentation and have paid the hospital bill. I also had my first baby in the U.S.
Kindly advise please.
Thank you.

Pele.

1st 30 minutes -get free WiFi for however long it lasts and ping and browse and inform your people that the 1st leg of your journey has been done and dusted.

2. ask around, some airlines give free meals when you have long layovers.

3. find a secluded corner with enough seats for you to lie down, if possible get one Close to your check in area, restrooms and a screen were you can see flight details.

4. lie down and snooze.

5. this is very important when you have a long layover it is essential that you have as little carry on luggage as possible.

6. wake up, check the time and snooze some more. ignore anyone asking you to sit up, you're pregnant you need the rest grin

7. window shop.

8. exercise your toilet breaks( if you're like me you'll probably have 10 or more in the 10 hour wait )

9. begin to realise that long lay overs are frustrating and promise yourself never to do it again.

10. do it again and repeat 1 to 9 because, cheaper tickets!

I cant help but laugh....very informative though!

Please what was the luggage allowance including hand luggage for your son. Was this amount for a seat. Thanks

We had just 6 bags so I wouldnt kW if they would av allowed 2 bags for him. I was made to 74,400 was 10% of adult one way ticket for our travel date and not for a seat, but for him to be carried on the lap by and adult. I eventually requested for a bassinet for him and we got one. Car seat was also checked. Travel with just one hand luggage while my wife with just d dieper bag, I guess we didn't maximise our baggage allowance.
