Hi guys, I have been a silent follower of this thread (what we call 'waka pass') since February. I read all of Part 1 and followed the thread to Part 2. It has really been informative and some times hilarious and other times off the point with arguments and brawls. I did a degree in the US and I know how much I paid compared to my fellow Naijans who are American citizens, and so we prepared for this. 15 Likes |

queenestty:I don't think anyone paid Northside before leaving Naija.Just show them at your POE the personal letter that has your name written on it of their price estimate.Then try to get a personalized letter from your Obgyn stating they'll be accepting you and how much they'll be charging. I really can't tell what your Obgyn package is,some are inclusive of all test and blood works while some aren't.so you'll have to discuss with your Obgyn.There are several Obgyn affiliated to Northside,you can speak with them and decide which works for you. You can source for your own pediatrician if you want but from what I've gathered Northside would give you one if you don't have any. As for the placenta disposal,that one pass me o,lol...still on the waiting line.@shawbabe would be in a better position to help with that. You shouldn't have much problem at the POE.Just have your cash(and cards if you have any)your correspondence from your hospital and Obgyn and you should be fine. 1 Like |

As far as I know, it's disposed of as biohazard waste. I don't think you should be asking them to package the placenta and give it you. They probably won't answer you anyways. queenestty: 2 Likes |

shelly23: They can package for you if you want. People eat their placenta and others encapsulate it and take as medicine. Read that it good for energy and nutritious postpartum. 1 Like |

hotmummy2015: lemme gross u out a bit! Oyinbos de chop placenta ooooo! The placenta is an organ that your body creates to give your soon-to-be-baby oxygen and nutrients while in the womb. But once the placenta has done its tour of duty, are you done with it? For some moms, the answer is no. Some moms want to keep the placenta to eat at home as a way to potentially stave off some of the less enjoyable after-effects of birth. Others want to plant it with a tree to commemorate the birth... "Hospitals are very worried about safety, because the placenta really is a biohazard," says Titi Otunla, a certified nurse midwife at Texas Children's Pavilion for Women in Houston. "It's full of blood, it's not very sanitary-it could be a public health nightmare." Even though placenta eating is on the rise, it's still not a common request, so you may find that you get some pushback from hospital staff when you make your request. http://www.parents.com/pregnancy/my-body/pregnancy-health/take-placenta-home/ |

Hass anyone else considered or done cord blood donation? I hear it saves lives and used to treat blood cancer and sickle cell anaemia |

queenestty: When I had my baby, the nurses took theplancenta away to dispose off. That is thepractise there. How it is been disposed, I don't know and didn't even care cos I was overwhelmed with the joy of seeing my baby. She was the only thing I was seeing at that moment. But I remembered that I was asked prior to delivery if I wanted to donate it to a cord bank and I said No |

Getting US visas to take more time as technical snag hits American embassies across the world New Delhi: Getting a visa for the United States is likely to take more time as the US embassy is experiencing technical problems with their visa systems across the world. As a result, all visa interviews between June 22 and 26 at US consulates in Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai and Hyderabad have been cancelled. The US embassy has said that the interviews will be rescheduled. In a statement issued by the US Embassy in India, the problem is continuing across the world. "This is a global issue, and we are working around the clock to fix it. More than 100 computer experts from both the private and public sectors across the United States are working on this problem 24/7. That said, we do not expect the system will be online before next week. Unfortunately, this has caused a serious delay in our operations," the US embassy said. Visa applicants with appointments during June 22 to June 26 are requested to reschedule their appointments for biometric enrollment and visa interview to a date after July 6, 2015. "There is no need to contact the call center or customer support. You can login to your visa appointment system profile and reschedule both of your appointments at www.ustraveldocs.com/in," |
