Hello Everyone,

I’m considering switching from Houston to Maryland.

I had booked an appointment with a Dr at Center for Women’s health and planned to use Oakbend, but after reading through and speaking with people, I’m making a switch. I’m still considering other options in Houston- Methodist sugarland etc.

But I’m also open to Maryland especially because I have family there.

Does anyone have details on:

UM Baltimore Washington Medical Centre
Anne Arundel Medical Centre

Does anyone also have details on Doctor’s that are d with either of the above hospitals?

Also regarding flights, for those arriving at JFK which airlines are you using? Delta is mostly ing through Atlanta. The one i saw for JFK, has a layover stop at London and I would require a transit visa to through London.

Please share options.

Thanks!

Hi,

I used Holy Cross Silverspring and Dr Moore in 2019 because it was 5mins away from home. It turned out to be the best decision because I was 9cm dilated when we got to the hospital. Anne Arundel is very far from Silverspring unless you are open to it. I’d suggest you get there and go and inquire from the hospitals. Someone posted the hospital costs for Maryland some years ago. You can use the search button to find it but I quite it wasn’t cheap! Most hospitals in Maryland aren't cheap.

Currently, I’m in Atlanta using Northside and North Atlanta Obgyn. I didn’t use Holy Cross again because of accommodation but I really liked my experience with them and Dr Moore if that helps.

Hello all,

The last time I went on missionary journey, I processed baby's documentation including US port in about 2 weeks.

I just got an info that processing port (case in point Chicago) is about 10 to 12 weeks and expedited service is 4 to 6 weeks. This info will definitely change my plans.

So please Mamas who are currently in the US to birth or those who will birth in coming weeks and/or month, kindly update us on timelines and processes for getting SSNs, birth certificate, Nigerian and US port, ETC, Visa on arrival etc for your different states.

I wish everyone a safe delivery.

Regards,

Thanks for the response.

I have gotten rates for Maryland. They are so high. I’m running back to Houston. Lol.

Did you arrive at Atlanta airport as your first POE? How was the experience?

No I used JFK with two toddlers who are both citizens. The only question asked was how long are we staying for and I said 3 months. Nothing else.

Jfk is so sweet grin they hardly put anyone through tough time, although I know someone who was turned back in jfk(not a preggie). I’m looking forward to a sweet experience when I through.

For everyone asking about New Jersey:

JFK Hospital, now called Hackensack Meridian Health JFK University Medical Center.
About $6500 all inclusive.
Obgyn and paed. are separate. I used Dr. Kirit Patel and extremely happy with him. Costs are about $4000 or so for normal and slightly more for c-section.

Total costs were D 11,000 in 2015.
