Hello Nairalanders, I am scheduled to leave for Houston next week so I thought today was a good day to see my doctor before my departure and to request for a 'fit to fly certificate'. The doctor was like 'hope you are fully prepared'. That he had 2 of his patients whom he had given such certificates within the last 2/3 weeks denied entry and returned. He said he didn't ask them for details of why but one of them had already had 2 babies in the US.
Now I'm worried and scared as it appears this Trump motivated rigidity may have made things tougher.

Chanbaby:


They don't do that anymore had my baby 9days ago. No form to fill paedritician. Hospital will give u the one on call.

idonhear:
@ titileps & Shawbabe.

Does Houston Northwest Medical Center accepts an outside pediatrician? Please help clarify.

titileps:


I am due late May. This one that you are staying for 6 weeks. HIan! Thought you can't travel after 36 weeks

tytmed:


I'm atl bound oh. In July.

titileps:
Of course it's after discharge. If your baby does not need NICU care I don't think you need a pediatrician. Babies are moved to Nursery after birth. Then you can take your child to see a pediatrician later. But if you want to use the hospital'so pediatrician, you will still have to schedule an appointment with them after birth. our babies will be healthy by God's grace. So there won't be need of using the hospital's ped

titileps:
19/04 to return 18/06. What date are you looking at?
(quote author=Shawbabe post=53990583]

Yea it's very expensive. To think that 2 years ago this was price for 3 adults. Chai.
What are your dates?

titileps:
I am yet to buy my ticket ooh... its damn too expensive. I will get it next week sha. I should go with Qatar air as that seems the cheapest at about 418k as at yesterday for my travel dates. Still hoping for a miracle.

titileps:
Good Day

I think I should help. I am due to give birth in May. Leaving in April.hospital is Houston North West Medical Centre and it cost 2000$ for VD. Doctor is Nicholas Xydas - 2000 USD. Was told lab test was inclusive of the bill but I don't believe. So just make provision for extra cash in case. Then Paediatricians bills is about 400USD but I am using another paediatrician from outside-200$, hearing test- 150$.
So its approximately 5000$
Hope this helps.

I heard on radio that Airfrance will be having sales between 1 to 3 March that interested persons should walk into the office in port Harcourt for it.
I don't know if it is applicable to other states too.

mayorsboo:
My sis I just tire, it's not like we didn't have the money o, why are we buying pple gifts when we can pay, if I had gone to El Paso I won't spend as much as 10k but I didn't want to be a rebel. Now look where it has landed me.

Ayokunle07:
Hospital is Emory Midtown. Doc is Tates. We have not booked an air ticket yet (hoping to have the airlines drop fares with sales). Due in Aug, travelling in July.

We would have done TX too but Atlanta is where we have accommodation.

Are you also planning to go to Atlanta? What info do you have already?

nefertitiram:


I suspected.

This is the reigning thing in Abuja now

Ayokunle07:


DH of an ATL bound mama here

akmid:


Asked because Atlanta to Dallas should be a local flight and most airport international flight and domestic flight departure and arrival point are different so need to know if one would enter officially first at Atlanta then move to the domestic wing for the next flight or the airline takes care of that and your point of entry would be Dallas. This is important as it affects the number of hours stopover you select, buying my ticket online not using an agent so better one knows what to expect.

akmid:
Hi everyone, I intend taking delta airline to Dallas and we would have a stop over in Atlanta before heading to Dallas. Please I would like to know if Atlanta would be the point of entry or Dallas so as to decide how many hours stop over I should select at Atlanta. Thank you.

Amiableada:
good day house. please Dh and i are a bit confused and will need opinions on what to do. i renewed my b1/b2 isa via drip box and was emailed to pick up my passport and schedule an appointment for an interview. i filled the forms and all through an agent, only for me to contact him on the infos he filled out and he said he put NY as POE whereas i am going to ATl, he also put that i am staying for 2 weeks and going for vacation.on finding out i was mad at him because i specifically told him to let me know if he needs any answers. now my interview is next week, i have my dr's correspondence from atl and all. we r confused as to what to do.

ndmum:
Hi, I'm due March 2017 and currently in Atlanta. Hoping to hook up with nairamums with due dates close to mine. Using Emory/Dr. Tate as well. Are you in ATL?

Austine2020:
Then, why cant he process your document for u so that u can have resident permit instead of using visa since he is a US Citizen? But mind u that he can still give your baby US passport even if the child was born in Nigeria.

Ayokunle07:


I got it from my Travel agent guy on WhatsApp yesterday. I can leave his number here but I hope it won't violate any rule.

Hotstepper:


It doesn't matter. My family friend was already preggy when she applied but she did online application and there was nowhere they asked if she's preggy or not so she didn't indicate. She wasn't called for interview either and was given 4 yrs visa.

Now to the info everyone is itching to hear this is not MHIS Cuz Canadian system is different since our health care is free. Lemme explain.

So for her,

1. Dr fee was 750
2. Hospital was 2500 per day and she stayed just a day nd it's CS Ooo
3. Anesthesia..640

Total is 3890 CAD

The baby paid nothing because immediately he was born, he's Canadian so his health card which was given immediately at the hospital made it free. All the specialist that came to check him like eye, hearing etc was free. So this is the part that in US that adds up cuz baby have to pay.

chiprettie:

Well the only option I have now is the extended stay and is about 1500 for a month. Atleast you have a place to go to after delivery so it depends on u, most pple living in Richmond Virginia are whites and they ask for ssn before they can rent out and it's relatively cheap as low as $600. So still weighing my option and still hunting. I have d hotel as a backup in case I dnt see any cheaper one and the hotel is about 2miles to hospital and doctor office which is a plus for me, so use so you have to consider the distance and also factor in transportation cost even if u get a cheaper accommodation which is far away from d hospital. So the option of sharing with someone comes into play. But u r a July mum and I'm april mum though there is an april/may mum using the same hosp, doc and hotel so we are stil working on how best to share or get an apartment to share.

Ayokunle07:


Just got this this morning and I thought to share with this great house.
