happytbaby:
Firstymum,

I am fine, thank you. Counting down to starting mat leave, I am just so tired these days.

@Ijeomaobi
Congratulations dear

@ House,

Most hospitals will charge for extra day. Maybe Oakbend does not. Even our extra cheap MIHS did.

Well, I used oakbend and Dr E and was charged. I was itted for induction by 9pm on 16th Feb. Had my baby by 8:30am on 17th. Got discharged on d 18th. Should have bn a day if d 16th wasn't counted. But twas counted for both baby and I. So maybe it's just luck?

You can enter thru any state, you've got no problems at all. My final stop was Houston but used Minneapolis as POE.

I think someone mentioned this a few pages back but the people asking for ETC missed it.
ETC (as most other things like invitation letter and change of intent letter) has been abused hence the embassy has suspended the issuance to minors. If you are leaving the US in the next couple of weeks your options are either a Nigerian port, Nigerian Visa or visa on Arrival for your child.

Cc graciie phabulouschy

many thanks

Perhaps it's luck or perhaps is a little bit of asking questions after you get your final bill and holding them to the fine prints on the "package contract" @favougal says it correctly cos they (oakbend) won't charge you if you labour overnight or undergo induction-your physician might charge you for the latter and yes your 48hrs starts counting after you born and 72hrs if it's CS .

no, I didn't pay extra. But didn't get a refund for spending just a day.

Hello my people again, pls for those who have used Houston Methodist, did you pay for hearing test in the hospital or its free? Also How many routine visit do we have to make to the Pediatrician after discharge and any idea of the cost and clinic? Also, for those who used Dr. D, pls did you take along any test results from naija, cos i understand the doc's fees cover all lab tests and ultra scan. Thanks thanks, just preparing for this my missionary journey.

They must do hearing test, it is a Texas law. It is NICS people that will do it. When they bring your bill, you will see it there


lol @ baby refused to peepee. Your mama is funny o, until dey do evry test to their satisfaction, baby na their own.. They can discharge you but ask you to come back later for your baby. Thank God she's fine

I didn't pay for hearing test. It's not compulsory... Even tho I didn't use ur Hosp.
I did it my self... Do it naija style.... Just shout chei and see if the baby won't wake up or shake ( or even b frightened). I did one ear at a time
Two routine visit first visit because of registration it was 65 dollars or so subsequent was 55 or 50. Check November 10th or 11th post I posted details on this
Dr's fee doesn't cover scan. My friend used him.. She was ranting how she had to pay for scan.

Hearing test is optional. At least I know for oakbend. They give u a paper to sign saying it's REQUIRED by d state of texas. But u can decline. It's not compulsory
