Thank you so much for your prompt response. i really do appreciate you so much for it and God bless you.

I planned leaving with DW and LO 3 weeks after child birth but at the moment we are one day behind schedule as LO is yet to arrive as expected cheesy
To be honest, 3 weeks is more than enough time to get the documents. Just to pray baby arrives in good time.

Lmao @ stupid idiot. That's probably the only thing that caught my eye. We Nigerians can't have a healthy argument without being sentimental about it. This was exactly why there was a round 2 some days back.

You think you are having a healthy debate with someone, next thing they call you names like idiot . And you're like wtf? Where did that come from? cheesy

TravelRe: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 5 by Shawbabe: 9:11pm On Mar 02, 2017
Oh and ssn they told will take 10 days. I think it came like 5 days later. All this is possible if you're in a city with fast process. This was part of my choice for still sticking with Atl this time around. Oh and I forgot to mention, I opted for an induction at 38 weeks coz I was tired of waiting for nature lol grin. So it helped me plan accordingly coz I already knew when baby will arrive. But this is me oh....I'm weird like that.

This is very handy information at the moment as I have been worried and concerned

Please is it possible to get all documentations(birth certificate, SSN, And Passport) done within one week after birth?

thank you
Yes it is. I had my baby in Atlanta. Got birth certificate in 24 hrs from Vital office. My husband arrived immediately I had my baby. Filled passport form and went to get it himself. He lived in Atl for 15 years so he drove from US passport office to Nigerian embassy at Roswell and his Georgian licence acted as US resident ID. Got both passports 2 days later. Carried our kaya and left when baby was a week plus.

It helps if you're in a State with Naija embassy. Coz their wahala can be a bit much.

justwise:
Madam use your visa for vacation and have your baby in Nigeria.

You were given the opportunity to state whether you are pregnant during the interview and you blew it. Deportation at the Poe is possible and renewing that visa will be a tough call
No chill zone grin

Virgin dey do promo o.... check wakanow site or email dem.
It's 11K cheaper on virgin directly. No need to be contacting wakanow
TravelRe: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 5 by Shawbabe: 6:39pm On Mar 02, 2017
Why book with travel agents like wakanow, when you can book direct with the airline and save like 11khuh
Also when you want to change your flights, these agents can't help you and end up messing up your ticket. Just go book direct with the airline.
TravelRe: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 5 by Shawbabe: 1:48pm On Mar 02, 2017
[quote author=BVNO post=54202418][/quote]It's not 2 weeks. Most airlines accept from 7 days old. I travelled with mine at 1 week +. Call your airline and find out their own policy. It's not all questions that people know here so u don't sit and be waiting for 2 weeks if u need to leave.
Also most pediatricians advice 7 days too.
TravelRe: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 5 by Shawbabe: 1:42pm On Mar 02, 2017

Check the policy of the airline you are flying with, or you call their customer care.

Generally around 3 weeks.
3 weeks ke? Which airline is that one. Abeg it's mostly 7 days old. I flew with mine at 1 week plus

It's 36 weeks for single pregnancies ( only one baby in the belly) and 32 weeks for multiple pregnancies (2 or more babies in the belly)
No. She's right. You're looking at flights less than or equal to 8 hours.
You should be looking at flights more than 8 hrs becoz Dubai to and city in the US is at least 8 hours. You might be fine from naija to Dubai leg

I should try put small wisdom? I don't even understand what that means.
Don't ask same question after 2 pages oh. Hope you have started searching. Good luck
TravelRe: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 5 by Shawbabe: 1:16pm On Mar 01, 2017
Olaboss, follow these steps:

Get a notepad and pen
Find hospitals in the area suggested by Dwebb55 and write down their numbers
Search physicians affiliated with them. Find their numbers too.
Put credit on your phone, check time difference then start calling all of them to ask for price for self-pay patient.
Make sure YOU STAY AWARE FROM BIRTH CENTRE that your cousin was going to hook you up with, stay away from Medicare/Medicaid. It will affect your visa oh. No go yankee go do sharp girl oh lol.
Anyway follow these steps and Dwebb55's advice. Goodluck.

Sud I look out for government or non government hospital?
Urgent please thanks
It's funny how you people come and ask for favour and write "urgent". Like the rest of us are just chilling waiting to attend to your urgent needs.
My dear read through the thread, that's what most people here do. No one will give you the info you are looking for. This na DIY thread. You've been asking for help since Nov 2016 till now. Haba. You should have done some ground work yourself na.
Ps. Maryland is an expensive place to give birth. This should give you a head start

What obgyn are you using? How much are they charging you?
TravelRe: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 5 by Shawbabe: 12:39pm On Feb 28, 2017
Oh ok. Just checking they haven't changed their fees.

Quick question to the mothers that travel with their toddlers alone before the husband arrives. Where do you "put" them on the day of labor? As in do you take them with you to the hospital or what? I'm asking for non Houston mothers. Coz I think Houston peole have a communal arrangement?
Mom2015, what did you do with your toddler during labor?
TravelRe: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 5 by Shawbabe: 11:52am On Feb 28, 2017

@stephne007

I used Dr Abrams, 2 years ago. He charges $120. I have to go back to my folder of receipts for the name of his clinic but it's in Norcross. 12 mins from the hospital. If you tell Northside you are using Dr. Abrams they know him and have his details. Wait oh, hope Northside is still 3550?

All this ITK, oversabi talk just shows inferiority complex. No one person knows it all, I agree. But some people know more than others. Let's respect that.
