Dear Mamas,

I have a nagging question. Bought a Delta Airline ticket to Houston. The itinerary indicates that the first stop is ATL before HOU. I am wondering where I will experience the CBP interview. Is it at ATL or the final destination, Hou? Please help a novice.

The very first place where your leg touch U.S soil na your POE. U pick up your luggage and the next leg is a local flight

Pls, can any recent mum who birthed at Methodist Sugarland share a breakdown of her hospital fees, pls. I am getting conflicting quotes and figures. Also, for those who used Dr. Dama, did u take along ur tests results or all tests and ultrasound done by the Dr. was covered by his cap fee. Thank you.

Good day all,

pls I need a doctor someone has used close to west Houston medical center and whose bill is not more than $2,000.00

Pls I need your help ASAP.

Thanks all

Good day everyone . I want to find out if I use a doctor not affliated to the hospt I intend using , does that mean the doc won't be present at the hospital on delivery day?

I don't think it's possible. Yet to hear of anyone that did that. Will the hospital admit you there without a doctor?

Posh404,

Me sef dey wait for experienced answer to dat ya strong kwetion

@ Debby516,

Used Houston Methodist hospital. It's quite easy. Just go to d hospital,as per cash payments ,u will pay $2,538 for vaginal and epidural is $1,500. Don't know for c-section aha oo.

@wordaddicted,

Biko ask me d kwestion here no vex.

Posh404, not possible. A doctor can't use a hospital he does not av admitting privilege

@Ijeomaobi1, thanks alot. Pls, does d hosp fee include in-hosp pediatrician, hearing test, pathology and other routine baby things? [quote author=ijeomaobi1 post=48825104]Posh404,

I'm yet to birth at Methodist. Yea I took my tests results to Dr D, he still charged me $270 regardless of the fact that I did most of the test(the 270 is a flat fee), you also pay separately for the scan which is 150(not covered by his cap fee).
Heard he has another package where CS is 8k and Vag 6500 for delivery at Methodist

Hello,


Will be glad if someone could help out with Emirates Ticket for a baby and how to go about it.

Did you call before getting to the airport
Can it only be purchased at the airport
Was it a one way or return
How much did it cost
What is the baggage allowance

Thank you.

I used Dr. Dama in June and he did not use my test and scans from Nigeria. The test costs about $270 while the scan cost $150 in Oakbend.

Emirates baby ticket is 10% of your own ticket. Our own baby ticket is $65 and we pay thru phone which is quite easy if you have US bank account. U will pay for only one way. I believe u can also buy it at the airport.

Pls I need help from the gurus in d house.

When I had my first baby in 2014, my mum nd dad applied for us visa to go with me to have my baby, unfortunately they were denied but guess that because my dad came with her, since he said he can't leave his wife alone.
Fast forward to this year am going for my 2nd missionary journey and I need my mum to come with me, I applied for her alone, but using @biollar1 style, her appointment is after I arrive the US. I have d following docs prepared for her interview, her bank statement since she's sponsoring herself, 1st missionary journey receipt, my visa page, her gtb receipt.

Pls what else am I to give to her, am worried because of her previous denial and she doesn't ve any travel history and I really need help this time around cos of my toddler.

Will appreciate ur contributions.
