Modath, as for the shekpe Mata, we all know pregnant women don't drink alcohol irrespective of what kind(shekpe or expensive champagn). That issue was brought up here just for comedy relief which I personally laughed about too when I read it. I added it to my first post during the whole drama bcuz pun was intended. I have even counted myself as an 'area' too.

So what makes you think I was even refering to you even as I didn't mention your name. Comon now, you had to call me out here. Do you honestly think we believe anyone who values his or her life would dare take shekpe even with the inscription on it. Plus. I know thier are other uses of 'shekpe' which I don't whish to dwell into now.

It's was all pun pun pun and it's quite unfortunate my mention of shekpe has been lost in translation.

U sef collect one bottle!

Berra come back and tell us the second use oh! Your grandma na Warri mama? Na only she fit give u d expo

Hmmmm.

@ the lady with the SSN issue

I advise that you thread with caution here. The man is obviously up to something but lets look at other ramifications of reporting as people advised.

Yoruba people have an adage that translates to 'it's the beginning of a fight we know, no one knows how it will end'

Let's paint a scenario; you report and the issue is investigated and traced back to him and he receives a 3month jail term; he becomes an ex-convict, his job opportunities become limited, your sister in law is thrown into turmoil. Even though the man has done a despicable thing, the family will point a finger at you.

I don't really know how this SSN thing works but can we explore the possibility of just having that one cancelled and then you or baby can apply for another one later in future? I know one is entitled to a limited change of SSN though.

You just need to weigh it,is it worth a family feud? Abeg next time you wan born for obodo oyinbo, go rent house.

goodmorning everyone. so I'm travelling today. last week was crazy, ended up buying dollars at the black market rate. haven't been able to update on this page sef, I'm behind like 5 pages.

Anyway I want to sound a warning to everyone so what happened to me won't happen to anyone else. Let's be extra careful, not after trying hard in this economy to get dollars one would now tell my kind of story. it's not your portion IJN.

I had a help that was so useful to me, she did so much that I would always sing her praises to anyone who cares to listen. For this trip I registered her for a catering course and promised to keep paying her (N25k a month plus free accomodation, feeding and personal effects as well as medicals when the need arises). I treated that girl like a sister.

long story short, this week my toddler who I'm travelling with has been sick so I've been in and out of hospital and doing all sorts, wasn't able to even follow up with bank hence having to buy dollars at black market rate. Yesterday I took him for a final checkup and other running around in preparation for my trip and she was home helping me get my things ready.

this morning her phone was switched off, I asked her why, she said it packed up, I asked her to bring it let me check what's wrong, she left and I didn't see her again. she just walked out and took a bike cos if she had carried load the estate security would have stopped her.

she left with my Dollars in her pocket. 20 minutes later I noticed she had taken the money. how she found it is beyond me, she must have really searched.

please pray for me, bought 1k now to go with and have money in an account there but still I'm not myself.

Let's be extra careful everyone please. be mindful of whos around you.

U did well sharing, A lot of us here got PTA weeks before our trip cos of dollar scarcity . I trusted no one a jejely paid it to my Dom account. I withdrew it the morning of my trip. It's well
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 3 by girlloom(f): 11:39am On Mar 19, 2016
Thanks to @mamaOO and everyone who had something encouraging to say about my ish with my host and son's SSN. I called the IRS no. and was told to call back on Monday, I would update after my call on Monday.

So let me share my birth story.. My edd was 25th of December but there was no sign of labour up to the 29th. I decided to book an appointment for 30th, I went in and was told I have to be induced that day as they were not satisfied with my baby's heart rate ( thank God I had my bags packed). The induction process started at 8pm, labor kicked in at around 10pm and my baby's heart rate was still irregular. I was put under close monitoring and different things were done to ensure his heart rate normalizes but unfortunately it didn't. After all the pain and torture I was scheduled for an emergency c-section at 5.30am on the 31st. I got into the OR at 6am and did not come out till 3pm because I was hemorrhaging, I ended up getting blood transfusion. To cut the long story short my son and I spent 2 weeks in the hospital. Now to my bill, the total came up to 41,000 usd but since I was self pay it was reduced to 15,000. I am just glad that my son and I are alive, coming to the U.S. was definitely God's way of saving us. I don't want to imagine what could have happened to us if we were in Nigeria with the complications that arose. I plan to return at the end of the month with my LO. Btw I used Henry ford hospital in Michigan.

I totally get what you are saying and that was why I asked if the card can be blocked. To be honest, this man comes across as a very nice person and has been good to my son and I. I was highly disappointed when he gave me the SS card, I am pretty sure he doesn't know that I am informed. I really wish I rented a place cos the sis inlaw is story for another day.

Yes the police need to be involved and questioning her family to put pressure on her to appear and hopefully return your money.
Whether she gets a beating is up to you, but she deserves it.

So sorry dear, this is so painful. I knw u are leaving today but just drop by a police station and report, for rexord purposes and send out her pictures to the blogs, before ur trip. Ur husband can follow up in ur absence. This has been my greatest fear. I've been alone since I got married...no help and I work an 8-5. With baby on d way, its become inevitable...been praying like a mad pe2abt it. I'm so so afraid. Stories like this just break our hearts. I forgot to add, with a police report u can approach her mobile network for last calls she made and text messages. Try to be calm please.
