[quote author=cutelass post=45384936]Guess I've rested enough. Here's my story. About 10 days before my travel date, swelling on my legs which had always been minimal increased so much. Even after raising the legs up at night, the moment my feet touches ground in the morning the swelling returns. 3 days before my travel, I used the home bp monitor to check my bp and it was ranging btw 140/80 and 145/85. I immediately drove to hospital. Nurse on duty checked with the manual bp monitor and another young dr checked and it was still high. They had to call my consultant. He ordered they check my urine for protein and nothing came up...he eventually came himself, checked the bp and said it was normal.

3 days later I travelled with Lufthansa on a united ticket at 34 weeks + some days. Requested for wheelchair and they said since I brought fit to fly I can't use wheel chair. I was shocked cos several pple here have used wheelchair. They agreed to book for my mum cos of her arthritis yet we didn't see any wheelchair neither at Frankfurt nor LAX. We flew to Frankfurt and had a 4 hrs layover b4 we flew to LAX. All the while, my mum was so worried about the swelling.

POE was a breeze.
Cbp: what are you here for?
Me: childbirth
Cbp: ok. How long are u here for?
Me: 2 months
Cbp: sorry, what did u say u are here for again?
Me: childbirth, delivery, to have my baby (lol...that's d type of confidence saying the truth at the embassy gives u)
Took our finger prints and stamps us in for 6 months.

We went to agriculture...the officer was busy shouting to the guy scanning the bags...Nigeria, Nigeria, lol...our bags were scanned but we weren't asked to open it.

When we got to my aunty's house...the legs had tripled in size and she insisted I see the dr immediately ( my appt wasn't till another 4 days). We called his office and luckily he was still around...said they close at 5pm. It was already 4pm...so without eating or anything...they drove us to the dr office. My relations went in to greet him (they had known him for a long time) I had no idea, while I filled out the forms. When I saw the dr, my bp had shot up to 159/100. He told me point blank to head straight to the hospital as I had developed pre-eclampsia and baby had to be induced immediately. He said the financial dept would have closed for the day and they don't open weekends...so we had only the next day to pay and sign the contract...cos if I deliver without signing it...I would be left with a bill of over $40k. Got to the hospital and was admitted. Was placed on magnesium IV to prevent seizure...while they ran tests...the same ones I would have done with the doctor's office.

Next day my mum sorted the bills...while they brought the papers for me to fill...despite the induction starting Thursday night...i didn't deliver till almost mid day Saturday...cervix no gree dilate till...was almost heading to OR for c-section b4 LO came forth...I hadn't eaten in almost 48 hrs...day said no food, no water...was just allowed to chew ice...where the strength to push came from...I don't know.

The main testimony is that LO didn't need to go to NICU...was almost peeing in my pant when the thought of it came to my mind...cos of bills...she was just in the nursery...they did hearing test...checked for jaundice...was later discharged. LO is 3 weeks old currently.

Used st Francis medical center and dr. Mb---u. Hospital bill $2700 for vag. Delivery (includes paediatrician, epidural (the thing wore off towards the actual delivery). Stayed an extra day which cost $900 (covers both me and baby). Hospital gives free stroller. I've gotten zero balance.

Dr fees had always been 1500 and 2500 for vag and csection respectively. When I got here...saw it was now 1000 and 1300...was told the dr considered the current economic situation in Nigeria and decided to slash his self-pay fees. Hmmm...Angels still dey dis earth Shaa.

Since baby came early, wanted to shift my date but United wants an arm and a leg just to change date...I'm chilling (mum is here with me, hubby is coming, wonderful

Hi dear thank God for your miracle and congrats on the arrival of your cutie.
Please can you kindly provide more detailed info on the hospital and doctor you used?
For instance
1. Where the hospital is located? As in the city.
2. Doctors details such as phone number, email address.
Am very much interested to try this option instead of el paso I was thinking of.

Thank you for your anticipated assistance.

Good day beautiful mamas and papas in the house! Thank you for all you do to make this forum worthwhile. I gave birth to a very cute boy on Monday through VD! He weighed 4.1kg.

Atlanta moms, please can someone be kind enough to tell me if any notary public can sign the consent form for my LO's passport or it has to be US embassy notarised? We don't stay in Lagos and my husband wouldn't want to travel to Lagos except if that is the only option.

Thank you.

vcole:

Is the hospital in the same state? Anyway fill a new ds160 form with the new doctor/hospital contact information. Submit it and get the confirmation page. Call the US consulate and explain that you had to modify some information on your earlier form and would like to change the ds160 number on your application/cgi page. Also ask if this would reflect a change on your appointment booking as well (I can't remember if it does). They would ask you to send an email with a scanned copy of your passport biodata page and new ds160 confirmation page and call them back after you do. It'll take about 48 hrs to change to the new ds160 number after this.

Wow..I filled DS 160 form for medical visa and didn't see any part that asked for hospital details oh! I have hospital and Dr correspondence.. Please is something wrong cos I'd rather fill another form than be denied cos of that.. #icantshout

Dabira19:
Good morning NLanders. Pls if I intend changing my hospital,but yet to go for visa interview; wld I notify them before the interview or after?
Thanks @all

I'm kinda confused here oh..filled a DS 160 for b2 visa, I didn't come across any section that asked about hospital details even though I have correspondence for both dr and hospital!
Please help me here, I'd rather cancel this one and start another ( booked appointment already)! Gurus in the house please help with this one oh

LadyGuinivere:

There are cbps. Some black. Some white. Some hispanics. There are dogs sniffing bags. They also have a secondary inspection.
Is that the info u wanted? Hope I helped. If I didn't cover it, just search for carlifonia in the search space either on top or below this page...

Lmao... Very funny responds.

@Nenya, read the post u quoted, she already mentioned the hospital,Dr and the bill. Its in California.

Omo these people dey vex o. How can it be a crime to take up a selfvpay package deal?. I was badly thrown aback when I was refused last week ; I can even tell you I've gotten over the refusal, I hope the air clears out soon on the issue of low or too cheap bills. In trying to get stuff together for my next Visa application I have called MIHS to get a fresh letter from them but no show them no gree. Haping on the fact that they gave zero balance letter before and that if d embassy needs to verify they should contact them.

But my heart tells me them go soon calm down .... I've thatt feeling. It is well.

Congratulations evamama and all new mum's in the house...Continuous Progress in all our endeavours in Jesus Name...

LadyG good job cracking me up....Biko who has heard from Emeriem ohh...it haff tey....
.Anyways I was just passing and tot to say hello..

Hi @Momo,
I don't think you need to put the hospital name as organisation and contact person if you have got family / friends you are staying with.
I applied for B2 visa with hubby about a month and half ago and we were granted. In the place of contact person , we filled our family friends' details and organisation we left the field empty.
We went with our burden of proof and the only thing the VO requested for was hospital correspondence which we passed acrossed to him, in the pile it had the evidence of deposit we had made so far and he confirmed from us as well. I don't think you should fret.
If you can start up correspondence with your intended hospital ASAP, it is best you do, otherwise as you have been advised be truthful with the VO and let him/her know you intend changing hospitals based on further research you are currently doing which is not yet finalised.

All the best

Congrats Evemama. You and your LO are for signs and wonders o, that one is sure.
So never mind, the miracles are following you everywhere....bills o, more babies o, you're covered
on every angle.
Blessings.

I haven't used mine yet. I'm yet to travel but it's either a you use the fit to fly form on the emirates website or get a fit to fly letter from your doctor stating the things emirates highlighted on the website(things that should be in the letter). I printed out the fit to fly form, gave it to my doctor to fill and sign. I may also add a letter to be on the safe side.
Please note the date on the form must be 14days to 48hours to your travel. Meaning that you shouldn't bring a form signed by your doctor a while ago. It must be recent

Lady G, you are a clown. I put it to you that you are vexing that they will flood your mission 2018 hospital bedore you get there....kikikikiki.

[quote author=ebiv post=45488534]Thanks for your response... I just have plenty questions..
- Was it just d fruit cup and pizza they offered to him for throughout the journey? Or did they give him his own kids meal?if yes plsw what kind of food?
- Also the meal voucher is it for everyone who

I had to ask what meal they had for toddlers and she said fruits and vegetables,i asked for fruits and I got the cup,to my knowledge they didn't have proper kids meal(i might be wrong tho)I think the meal voucher is for everyone traveling long haul.

Amother4life:


If indeed the highlighted portion of your statement is true how does someone on a B1/B2 visa qualify as a citizen or immigrant in other to benefit from this subsidised package? You have clearly from your post inadvertently admitted that people enjoyed benefits they were not entitled to at MIHS created specifically for low income residents . Nobody on this journey would have been granted any visa if we had claimed that we were low income earners in the first place. So, anyone with MIHS receipts better avoid the aforementioned POEs

My thoughts exactlyy.
Sometimes we mommas need to ask d right questions in our search for cheaper options. I empathise with people who have fallen victim. I hope ts sorted pretty quickly.

evemama:
Hello house,
My testimonies plenty.
1) my mum got her visa on monday at abuja, she went with her burden of proofs but itb was not checked. Just 2 questions ( were are u going and why). White paper given to her and Vo is typing, my mama refused to go feeling like d woman never check her plenty papers na security man come explain say no need, u've been given visa!

2) had my beautiful big baby girl same day by 7; 42am at Oakbend by dr F.
After 4yrs of marriage, 2 nasty 1st & 2nd trimester miscarriages. This miracle came. At abt 4 months was diagnosed with gestational diabetes, put on insulin 3 times daily and considered high risk pregnancy. This discouraged me greatly I almost left d American dream, plus had some doctors I originally wanted to use in america who turned me down cos I was on insulin.

Glory to God.

evemama:
Finally, corresponded with dr F and settled for him. Travelled last month 12th, with edd for 19th may at 33 wks ga. 1st 2'antenatal visits with one of dr f other doctors cos he travelled. Was good & uneventful. 3rd visit with dr himself then he's like our scan shows edd for june 10th. Am like not possible o! So he sends me 4 a more detailed scan & monitoring at oakbend.
After results. Makes decision to induce me that baby is already big n good to come out especially with the diabetes.
So am back to hospital on sunday night, inducing starts & progress well but baby is reacting badly to d whole process. Doctor stops and opts for cs.
Next morning cs, baby is out and no crying. Am scared lying there I just started praying. God bless all d medical staffs cos abt 2 or 3 mins looked liked forever untill I heard her cries! Am like abeg make unna pinch her well well make she cryyyyyy.

God is good. Still in d hospital, cos am recoperating and baby needs to be monitored well since I had diabetes.
Don't know what my bills will look like cos I had plenty extras here n there so am waiting.
But I thank God for d doctor, his staffs and d oakbend pple cos I have my 8 ibs 4 ozs beautiful daughter alive with me.
Join me thank God, & pray for plenty money cos I need am! Lol

Congrats @evemama!!!,you almost made me want to cry,am so happy for your miracle baby,dont worry dear God shall supply all your needs dear...warm hugs.

MiddyO:
Present. Happy new month everyone! Congrats to the new parents!
