LI:
The first interview was before we can across this wonderful thread. So we stated that we were going on vacation and didn't vonlunteer the information on the pregnancy status of my DW. I think we even denied it when asked. The second interview was musch different. We prepared my DW to mention that she was pregnant and armed her with burden of proof.

Could the second refusal be linked to our first interview?

I'm suspecting so, it may be as a result of ur previous pregnancy denial or that your status has not changed from the time of previous denial. I hope the gurus will look into dis and give their opinion since I'm still a learner waiting for my own interview.


Congrats @Olokings, gaga and shawlar, the end justify the means. Wishing you guys safe trip back home wt your LOsss

My DW went for an interview in Lagos and was refused, see transcript below

VO: Why are you going to the US?
DW: I am going to deliver my baby
VO: Where are you going in the US?
DW: I am travelling to Strafford, Texas
VO: Can I see your Doctor's report in Nigeria?
DW: Yes please, you can have it. (she hands stapled documents that consist budget sheet, correspondence with Dr F, Doctor's bill, Hospital bill and report from Doctor in Nigeria
VO: Have you contacted any hospital in the US?
DW: Yes I have it all in the paper with you and the doctor's report you asked for is on the last page
VO: What do you do?
DW: I am a ---
VO: What does your husband do?
DW: My husband is a ---

While this was going on, the VO never looked beyond page 3 of the set of documents. On page 1 was the budget sheet (15k), page 2 was correspondence with Dr F and page 3 was Dr F's bill. He didn't look at the Doctor's report. Next thing, he seemed to type for eternity and from no where, he gave the usual rhetoric and next thing, hands over the dreaded blue paper.

Pundits in the house should please enlighten on what may have gone wrong as my wife and I both think she did well based on the transcript above.

N.B: I was not with her during the interview, I am financially responsible for the medical bills and logistics and work with a reputable organization. Our first application was refused, we were together and this time, we seemed to think it would boost chances if she applies alone.

Pls can you tell us what happened at your first interview? Are you sure it's not linked to dis denial? I never knew vo do demand for doctors report in Nigeria. This visa application do take the grace of God o. Perhaps you can hear the gurus opinion and re apply seriously praying for favour.

[quote author=zoemummy post=38230632]Come & join me sing hallelujah, Jehovah Jireh has done me well...

Hi,I am a jan mum too,I totally understand how you feel,last week I was totally clueless and confused,I did read part 1 and to be honest it was very helpful,first thing I did was to send out emails to doctors within Maryland and Houston area,I got responses from most of them,but like someone advised me , maryland is a no go area,and it is true,I didn't want to be surprised eventually with gbese so I have settled for Houston.i contacted the famous Dr fagbohun and he responded quickly,I will be using him because he has mostly good reviews and he seems experienced.As for accommodation,I contacted intown suites today and got a confirmation from them,I haven't settled on this though,I will still be looking for other options.these are the steps I have taken so far.

Well done, iv contacted dr F too, I guess I'm going with him. I tried intown suites and the least is 239. 99 per week, 10 weeks will be Around 2399.99. Have you gotten a cheaper option? Please let me know.

@ all

Pls will need dr Fagbouns contact. Will appreciate if anyone can help post it.

Bsharon:
Hello , Sorry for the delay in my part 2.
My bills as follows :
Cesarean section Elective - $3,780 Uncomplicated this package covers mother and baby's stays,for 3 days.

Epidural - $1,500 flat rate for normal delivery or C/S.

Payment for delivery in methodist hospital sugarland is mandatory you pay epidural using or not.it is refundable when you don't use it.

Pediatrician fee - $200 if using Dr Egbe it could be more if u allow the hospital choose a Doctor for your baby.

Lab tests - After delivery mother and baby $91,after a 50% discount.

I decline hearing test for my baby thou I was lucky the pediatrician ran the test then found where I signed declining it. So I got it free .

That was all I paid no suprises.
I Got my zero balance from the hospital going through the billing department ask after Sarah ,she was of great help to expedites my zero balance.

Pleas can I have the doc and hosp contact? I'm going for elective cs too and dis price sound reasonable. Any suggestion for accommodation? Thanks

Thanks so much @ mamabear, Tiwalope and Worry59, I intend to be truthful and need not hide my preggy, hubby will be fully responsible for my bill

I have gone thru the past thread and still could not decide on any hospital, I will appreciate any contact on Dallas or Houston, I will appreciate cost and doctors contact. Pls any Jan mum here? We can hook up pls, I don't know where to start, been browsing and checking all day, pls help a sis.

Good am all.

@all, please am new to this thread and on my. 3rd missionary journey, I had my 2 boys in LUTH via CS. My dh and I have decided to have our 3rd in the US, I'm currently 19+ gone and will be due mid Jan. Iv never been to US, though dh has and has a visa dat will expire in April 2017, iv only been to uk and ireland.

Pls, I need advise from zero to finish, I have no close family or relative in us, but have some good friends in Texas, not sure dey can accommodate me for a long time though. I'm still going to read the previous post, but pls do advise as I'm showing already and I hope it's not too late.

Beautiful mamas and handsome daddies, how body? I believe all is well, I know, and I know that I know, dat ur cases will be like he dat dream when the Lord bless you all with your bfp. D you know the painful process that gold has to pass tru?

Never loose hope, never be frustrated, be it 2, 4, 10 or 16 years, He will do it, we may not know when, may not know how, but He is capable. Do not despair, God cannot be rushed,just continue to pray, feed well, reason with ur gynae, and God will make your time to be NOW.

Rub your powder, put on your smiles, show the world and even the devil, that with God, it's only a matter of time. Sprinkling lots and lots of God's fertility your wayssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssSsssssss

firsttymum:
around where are you?

I stay Around Arepo in Ogun state but work at Ikeja, hospitals around Berger / Ikeja axis will be ideal, tanks a bunch

Mosi01:
You can try Faith City Hospital in Ajao Estate.

Thanks dearie, Ajao Estate far from my place o, I'm around Arepo in Ogun state, ikeja and Berger axis is easy for me to acces plus I work at Ikeja, and antenal will be easier

nkkystel:
Thanks dearie, my nose doesn't hurt o and the bleeding isn't much. Will try and see my doc by Monday.

Kpele dear,n it's part of d package, it show d level of blood passing tru ur body @ dis time! It's not unusual, if it happens frequently though, see your doc for reassurance.

Chinwendym:
Just entering 3rd trimester and I woke up this morning with a slight blood stain on my wipes! plus increased vaginal discharge! And a numbing ache on my right leg for the past week

My bump seems to be resting on my lungs coz I can barely breath! My nipples itch too plus I have been purging like someone left my bowel taps open

I feel like going in for a cs at week 30 because I don't think I can bare all this anymore!!!! I have suddenly turned into a nagging wife and my poor husband seems to be my worst enemy at the moment, i blame him for everything! Oh God please please please help me .

Still team November.

My dear, God is your muscle o, neva confess negative. Meanwhile, go see ur doc to your placenter/ cervix. Low lying placenter sometimes causes bleeding. Bed rest is sometimes prescribed or doc may just tell you to take it easy wt kpekus and anything stressfull.

tatacherie:
Teammate 5 times a week? Ewo see energy. I doff hat for u jor I dey learn 4 wer u dey.I kpekus once or twice a week.im even tinkin of reducing it pending wen i find a more comfortable style cos my smal bump is already obstructing tinx.if u don't hv any issues den no probs.
@ Blessedtwins we need am na abi.e suppose b part of d package

My dear na sooo, till my 12th week, I know allow dh more dn 3 times, and I feel for the man o, since after my 12th week scan, it's been rushing level

My piece for your friend is to find a way to meet her man half way! My hubby's sex drive is also quite high, nothing else apart from sex has ever been the cause of our argument, he turns to a child wen it comes to sex, he can go for days not talking to me if I refuse him, wen we were TTC, he wanted to do it daily, and for d 2wks break, I begged him to reduce to every other day. He kept on reminding me dat we had no 2w break for our 1st and 2nd baby. I finally found a way out by meeting him halfway, I deliberately ginger my sex drive, that way I won't hurt, though mine was not painful, just irritating, I neva had tear but sometimes sore after end of period rushing, I tell him and he let me be.
She should do her part by meeting him halfway to make him happy ( my dh goes about smilling and in great mood after continuos kpekus, and will give me anything at dat moment), then, she shld engage her hubby how it hurts and dat reduction of frequency will make it better, it is to be enjoyed, not forced, and it can't stop him from cheating, a man dat will cheat will cheat!

Sorry for d long post, I was once in a similar shoe

kaffy4bill:
If I hear say u no cum luth, na to flog u cum back. I go don resume mat leave den, so cum make I start omugwo for u from hosp bed.. one love

Waow! So you work in Luth? Great great, I must find you o

I actually love and trust Luth, my only but is dis strike! I risked my 1st and 2nd wout registering in a private, but I was favoured enough to give birth wen they weren't on strike, just want to be more prepared dis time around!

iclass:
Hello mamas! Please has anyone used or knows someone who has used mother and child hospital, adeniyi jones? I would like to know how there service is like there a
nd how much it costs. Thank you.

@ mamas pls respond I'm also interested, I use Luth and iv had 2 CS there, I know I'm going to have anor but I need a private hosp. Cos of Luth strike and stress, I need a good hosp on Lagos mainland with sound operating facilities. Tanks

pragmatistm:
Ok. I knw everyone of u might be busy with your baby, housework, vigilante, etc.

Your type of food na waa. My wife now likes beans or "egbo" ( dried maize cooked/mixed with beans). It does not throw her up like other good meals.

Thanks.

I too gbadun ur wife, she's just like me, I was into egbo and beans, I even prefer d egbo alone, I'm craving it so bad now, but unfortunately iv finished the raw one I av, I got to restock instantly

Mumsgirl27, big congrats, she will be a blessing to ur household.

Dear teammates, how body? Na eating ad kpekus competition I dey do now o, dh no gree me rest, I hope I can't overdo d kpekusing like 5 times a week @ 19wks, I gotta compensate dh, the man don try o

@ iyaderachuks and Favoredgal, tanks so much, d constipation has reduced and replaced wt constant hunger, I try to take warm water wt a slice of lemon in the morning on empty stomach + I include plenty fibre in all my meals which I take in bits now.

@ Tatacherie, how's d purging now? Pele, just relax and take it easy on food dat naturally purge

@ Apple19, Pele, the ms will soon stop, mine started reducing at 12wks, on and off till 16wks and @ almost 19wks now, it looks like I experienced it a looong time ago, my only evidence of preggy is my obviously protruding tommy and reminder from my busy Lo from within

@ my teammates carrying twins, I'm happy for you o, I take style appreciate ur body, mine started as twinnie in different sack but one stopped growing unfortunately in my first trimester, I owe God all for sustaining my surviving LO

@ proudmum, how are you now? Hope you are better, It's really not unusual, do try try and check your posture wen breastfeeding too, it can cause headache and body aches, iv experienced before. The lord is your muscle
