Gud evening everybody, pls who has used Detroit airport as POE?what's the experience like pls.Tank u.

ozycy:
Yes, just an ordinary hand written or typed letter that will be addressed to the Nigerian embassy. You and your husband have to sign the letter. If you are using Eddy, he will give you sample of the letter then you can just edit it and both you and hubby will sign.

swtlv:
Hi Nl

Pls those who have had their babies in Houston , pls is the notarized form for baby's passport from any notary public accepted in downtown Houston or it must be one notarized at the U.S. Embassy.

Not always true. June 15th-Sept 15th is considered peak period for airlines, so you might not get cheaper tickets in August. If your trip is after Sept 15, you might be lucky cos sometimes airlines have promos for immediately after the peak period, although those tickets usually have way too many restrictions.

Also remember that the dollar rate can still go up and ticket prices will be affected.

When you do not know ask people who know. He is a board certified family physician and his practice includes Obstetrics and Child Care.

It means that he specializes in Obstetrics and Child Care. Contact doctors in US to explain things to you since you are ignorant. US based Doctors in the house please step in

What did you serve. Tarnishing a good mans image?

You said he neglected your friend that was why i brought up that incident that he rushed to my sisters house to deliver my baby to show that he is not as bad as you are painting him to be!

What is your business if i paid or not? Can see you specialise in ameboism.... this matter you are carrying on your head didn't even happen to you. I am sure if i tell you want happened afterwards you will add salt and pepper and start broadcasting it. Sorry you do not qualify...

modath:

Whenever am bored I come to this forum and read pages I have missed. Thanks everyone for helping me one way or the other. Had a bouncing baby boy in April. Mum and baby doing good.
In this forum, I always remember 4 names
1. Phema: gives answers and helps everyone in any little way she can.(often wish I could put a face to her name)
2. Just wise: Mr administrator
3. TVegas: the man everyone praises for been in touch with birthing and babies. Helps in any way he can.
4: nefertitiram: the lady who answers everyone(advice and quarrel alike) .. For every quarrel in this forum she contributes. Doubt if na pregnancy hormones.

Greetings nairaland family! It's been a long while. Tried logging in though a few times but couldn't. Sorry for not replying some Pm that I am just seeing.

Well, I have gone on my missionary journey and returned safely. To the Glory of God and the valuable infos I got here, everything went smoothly but for a few minor hitches orchestrated by the devil but GOD WIN.
Well, I traveled via KLM with Houstom as POE. Flight was long as I had 5 hours layover in schipol but the inflight experience was great.

Travelled with my toddler and the stroller I had with me saved me loads of stress.

POE was brief and smooth. Went to the secondary questioning though. They only asked how much I had on me and Dr.'s correspondence. They then took the doctor's correspondence I tendered and went in for like 2 min. Came back and told me to go but ensure I keep all my receipts cos they want to see thwm when next I come.
Then went for agriculture, told them I had food. Was hoping they will seize my plenty indomie chicken, Palm oil, knorr chicken, cocoyam, dried fish, stock fish etc but to my surprise, I was asked to go after they passed my bag through the scanner.

For accommodation, I ended up being hosted by Dotfak as I couldn't get anyone to share an apartment I wanted to rent. Dotfak is a great guy, did everything he could to make his guest happy. In fact he became a brother. He gave me loads of infos and tips that saved me money and stress as well as help revive my spiritual life. I would recommend him any day.

For birthing, I used Dr FF and Oakbend.
Dr. FF service was ok but not great. Oakbend service was fantastic. Felt like I was a special guest in a five star hotel.
My bills are as follows.
Dr FF
OBgyn fees: 1, 920
Initial visit: 300
Lab: 380 ( He accepted all the test I did cos I had my Nigerian DR refer me to him via email with my test results

For hospital:
Oakbend: 2300
NICS: 335
Brown and associates for mother and baby: 80
Pediatrician visit after discharge: 55



That's it friends. Thanks again and pls don't mind any typo as I am typing in a rush cos my LO and his big brother are a handful.

Tvegas:
Congrats,its an interesting thread indeed,lol. As for Phema's face (aka burden of proof,aka iyalode) just imagine a no-nonsense magistrate court judge with thick googles.

Phema:

You no well at all ooo.
Congrats egwon!

Good morning dads and mums. Please, those in Elpaso which communication line ate you using. This wakanow.com sim is just a ripe off, typical of them. I grt charged for receiving calls too. Very annoying.
I need to get a cost effective sim this morning. Please, help a sister in need.

isysleek:
Car seat is very compulsory so pas take your car seat along to the hospital cos you will not be discharged without it.

Popri:


O thanks Z

chloe7:
if lyca mobile is in elpaso I think it will be a good one for you, wakanow is just a scam abeg.

Please where can i get good quality pap (also known as akamu or ogi) on the island in lagos. Please how can i preserve it and travel with it?

modath:

Not everyone has the same experience to share,There are some people that dont speak well of Dr Fagbohun despite being the darling of this thread.

Tvegas:

You are a stubborn somebody and who dare talk bad about my BABA of life?. Oya lemme have the name of your doctor,i will dig up something on him too.

modath:

Dr Ojogbede Okokokomaiko...

Tvegas:

I read the bolded portion of your post and i keep laughing because i imagine the doctor "Packing his stethoscope and running out of the hospital premises because he saw complications and palaver wey pass am" .

I dont know this DR from anywhere o but i can tell you there are 2 sides to a story so we should be careful in passing verdict. Did your friend press charges against him after this misdemeanor? .To every Dr there will always be negative and positive feedback, infact if you follow only the negative reviews on health-grade i swear you may abandon your own doctor or hospital. So let the matter go since @ejisky is cool with him.

Tvegas:


Yeye person, no be only Dr okokomaiko. Na Dr Abalaka

Nogen:
