MamaOO:

Thank God you do. My kids had the same issue as yours. ABO incompatibility due to blood type incompatibility. I’m blood type O and the kids are B (compliments of my husband)

I’m not a medical personel but I had to learn as much as I can about the subject because it caused me a lot of grief. My first son had to get airlifted by Medical helicopter to a children’s hospital two hours from us because his jaundice levels at 2days old was 21! These kinds of jaundice does not go down fast enough on his own without medical intervention. And by the time it goes down enough kernicterus and brain yellowing/damage might have occurred? Should we take that risk to save on cash? I personally wouldn’t. But maybe that’s just me. I won’t ever advise anybody who’s kid has jaundice to take them home unless the doctor okays it. And I’ll tell them to make sure they’re being monitored closely by a pediatrician. Maybe I’m just too paranoid and lily livered Sha

mizGene:


Congratulations! And thanks for coming back with your story.

How much is baby stay per night ordinarily (not in the NICU)?

MamaOO:

Concerning the bolded part, please don’t say that again sister. If you know the damage jaundice causes you will willingly allow them to keep your child as long as they can.

Both my babies stayed in the NICU for at least two weeks due to extreme jaundice! Instead of it to wear down as you said it would it kept jumping up until it peaked and eventually SLOWLY started going down. Jaundice can be deadly, depending on which type it is and cause kernicterus and trust me when I say I don’t wish that condition on anybody’s kids. (Google it for more info) The effects of the condition is so sever that eventually someone will wish they had spent the extra money and time at the NICU

Dumsy730:
Amen. Thank God for you.

Please can you share a sample of cover letter you used if you don't mind. It will be helpful.

Nonkala:
Big congrats dear

Which city/province did u land
At how many weeks did u travel and how did Ethiopia airlines know I were pregnant to ve sent u to dr office for fit if fly 2 days earlier, does it mean we don’t need any from our DR:

Thanks.

I landed in Toronto. I travelled at 31 weeks cos they do not carry after 32 weeks. They specified it on their website under travelling pregnant. They don't take fit to fly from your own doctor. I was told this when I called their office. C

quote author=gingalady post=75124316]Hello House, Long Post alert

I arrived in Canada yesterday with my 20 month old daughter. This is a flight and POE post.
First of all i want to say that life is a manifestation of your faith and Courage so this journey starts in your mind. So its better you see how you want it to go and then PRAY endlessly about it.

Iamajoyfulmothe:


Hello @gingalady and @damsell congrats on your successful application.

Did your husband have a valid US visa before you applied to the Canadian embassy?

Lakomsy:


Thank you @gingalady

I have a few question which I haven't seen the answer from this thread.

1)I don't have the funds for the medical bill in one account. Should I provide all the statement of each account or move the money to one account

2)Can I put that my husband and I will be sponsoring the trip even though he might not be travelling with me.

3) If I have a lump sum transferred to my account will be an issue.


Any one with answer, please assist. Thank you.

Lakomsy:
Guess this is online application. Did you input all the information yourself.

As I planned to start my application on Monday. Trying to decide which will be faster. Online or paper. I am 21 weeks already.

Thanks.

Online is faster from my experience and I did it myself. Feel free to ask any questions


That is not TRUE!!!

I just got my visa and for 4 years too! And in two weeks even!!
There are two options: you either specify it under purpose of visit and put OTHER and insert childbirth
Or if it’s an Online application to indicate it at point of entry. Most important thing is not to LIE

Christine77:
Congratulations! Please I sent u mail. You applied online right? Did u indicate that you would use the visa for child birth?

psalmy007:

pufframmy:

canadaman18:
congrats @gingalady

I looked at the processing time for visitors visa and it’s showing 69 days. Any idea if this is for paper applicants as it seems rather long.

Also I was wondering , if there’s one sponsor with dependent (wife) , do they need separate online profiles ?

Thanks in advance

damsell:
Thanks to all the contributors on this thread, the info here is invaluable. I've been silently reading up on all the pages here and just took the decision to apply about a week after I got a 221g interview invitation from the US Embassy and couldn't find any available dates before I'm due to travel cos I'm currently 24weeks gone and due in March next year. Thankfully that has been resolved, just got a favourable date now. Anyways here's how the Canada TRV application went for us:

Submitted online application with hubby as PA: November 13th 2019
Biometrics Enrolment: November 15th 2019
Original passport request: December 4th 2019

Vacation and birth tourism were stated reasons for applying. Got lots of info from here and dove into the application right away, just so grateful to God that we had our application processed quite quickly.

Onto active Dr, Hospital and accommodation search now. Headed to Oshawa, Toronto, that's where I stated as my destination in my application.

All the best with all your plans dear mommas and daddies too.

lynniebabes:
The new passport is ready at Nigerian immigration . I used the one with my fathers name to apply for visa online . The new passport will be activated with my thumbprint, I have not collected it, I’m still skeptical. The passport I have now will expire in 15 months.

beebeeA:
Ontario.

I'm not good with all the names. I just got my visa approved and aside not having a doc or accomodation....I'm wondering if it makes sense to travel with my 14 month old son to a place where I don't know any one.


I can really use your help and advice. In my form I filled Toronto with a hotel address as my destination. I also did not state that I would be travelling with my son but he's a US citizen and won't require visa processing.

I'm 32 weeks gone and ready to be on the next plane if I can get some directions. Otherwise it looks like I will have to stay back in Nigeria.

Thanks for your help in advance.



Hi dear, I think if you have someone to look after your son while you are gone and can’t handle the stress then leave him here. I’m travelling with my 19 month old soon too cos no one to leave her for here.

If your budget can handle it then get an accommodation for the stay period.

If you arrive there I’m sure you can sort doctor and hospital. That’s if you cant get them from here
@hotstepper can help you out

lynniebabes:

I applied for visit visa online two months ago, and I got a message on Friday that my visa was approved.
I also applied to change the name on my passport three weeks ago. I changed my surname to my husbands name.
My current passport which I used to apply for my visa expires in April 2020. In 1yrs and 4 months.
The question is which passport should I take to vfs for visa collection?
And also how many days does it take for Canada embassy to return your passport?
Thanks
