I bought my tkt directly from KLM, LOS to Chicago, 182,200, even cheaper than what is on wakanow. April, May, June prices still under N200k
All I did was book, make transfer to KLM's zenith bank account and got my email ticket in 1hour!

Yeahh was gonna tell you to check KLM directly, cos I ended up cancelling the wakanow or rather I didn't pay for it again but I bought from KLM directly for same price as yours (182k), My dear this is still unbelievable. God is working in my favour I must Say.

@Passionup11, I also depends on your destination, You can try KLM site directly for cheap tickets, cos I ended up buying with them and discarding wakanow as KLM was even cheaper.

Pls mothers in the house that have had deliveries using epidural and then not using vice versa.
I observed that mothers who used epidural took a lot longer to push their babies out because that painful urge wasn't there. Trying to decide on to do and not to do?
What was your experience like?

There's a thread in the family section on epidural vs natural birth, might be helpful.
I'll just say not to completely rule out epidural cos childbirth pain is like nothing you've ever experienced, ever!
Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedure? by Nita2013: 8:27pm On Feb 20, 2015
Hiya, I had my baby september last year at MIHS and i took epidural as well. I think it varies per individual because they kept asking me if i was feeling my legs and my baby and yes i felt my legs and also felt my baby moving inside (though no pain at all). After d epidural was administered at 7cm, 2hrs later i was 10cm and i pushed just 6 times my baby was out. the pushing exercise was less than 20mins.

My advice is listen and follow the instructions of the medical personnels. The urge to push will not be there but what i was told was that once i feel my baby moving inside of me then its time to push. (of course there was a machine monitoring d contractions, BP et all) So once my baby moves, we start the pushing exercise. This we continued until my baby came out. I hope this helps.

Hellos .I think u are looking in the wrong thread.there should be a thread about epidural somewhere i saw one recently.

Epidural did not affect my ability to push. cos u hooked up to a monitor and the nurses can see when u having a contraction and tell u to push.

Hi everyone, am new to this forum. I really appreciate all ur comments and advice. I have written several emails to the hospital in NJ Hackensack but I got no respond. Can someone pls help me? I need an affordable hospital in NY/ NJ pls. I wish u all safe deliveries and stress free POE, Amen. Is the ticket promo still on pls?



Hi @luckychild2015 I intend to use the same hospital. So far they're the cheapest in NJ. NYC is a lot more expensive. I have gotten response from them via phone calls. be sure it's the hackensack umc mountainside hospital you contacted. This particular one is where you will get the affordable maternity package. Dr Fares Diabakerli is the Dr I contacted at the hospital and he pretty much gave me a detailed break down of the cost and all what ill need to pay via email. It's 6500 for VD and 8950 for CS. You can Google him to get his contacts.

I am only just waiting for @favouredB to respond to my pm as she just used the hospital. I only want to confirm a few things about their services and all.

I hope this helps.
