The hospital knew babies were picking up infections from mutated bacteria in their wards but did nothing about it until 13 babies had died. She was just 17 days old. My sister who carried the pregnancy also almost lost here life in the same hospital due to mismanagement. Agreed, she had unique complications but it was something that should have been easily handled by a hospital that supposedly had the best rate of survival among premature babies in the country.<br /><br />Having gone through that experience, it was a no-brainer that she would be sent abroad once she conceived again. She had the same special complications the 2nd time around but because she was in a country where the health system works, she delivered safely and is now nursing a healthy baby boy.<br /><br />Experience they say, is the best teacher. I will personally not allow any of my children to be born in Nigeria. I am not concerned about dual-citizenship. I am simply looking out for the safety of my unborn children and future wife.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14817774950189360015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4970158058179666549.post-5090279395986986552015-10-13T06:39:22.779+01:002015-10-13T06:39:22.779+01:00Oh Anu!

Life e haf Carry me with her plenRRy plenRRy wahala of growing up and Dreaming big :(<br /><br />Thing is.. to me yeah.. If you have the means to do it.. Then like Janyl would say.. "Why not if not?!" Life is about choice and reasoning.. So **In T-Notes voice.. "To all man his own.." Some of the people who travel abroad do so for citizenship purposes.. and that i totally understand and would do if i could.. I mean I wouldn't want my children suffering the suffer i haf suffered nah.. But when there is no aim of doing it.. and you just do it cause you see others doing it... then it is to that I will frown.<br /><br />Like i always say Nne.. Whatever rocks your boat.. So if a lady wants to deliver in Afghanistan.. Na she know oh! <br /><br />About the Nigerian Health Sector.. Nne.. If I had my way yeah, I would travel to the UK to get treated even for a sneeeze.. Cause the way some of these clinics treat their patients with impunity only leaves one wondering if they hacSHually swore the Hippocratic oath.. Cheers Bubba.<br /><br />P.S: Can i send you an Email on #BLUEAfrica.. Please say Yes Anu.. Pretty please.. **Wears Puppy faced smile.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4970158058179666549.post-40076198451997303172015-10-04T14:51:02.677+01:002015-10-04T14:51:02.677+01:00Well. I think you need to do a little research. Ch...Well. I think you need to do a little research. Check out the public hospitals and the situations surrounding child delivery. And secondly. Those who go to countries who aren't giving citenzenship are not wise to me anyway but I strongly don't think most ppl go there. I know most ppl go to the US and Canada these days. And and they are still giving oh. <br /><br />As regards convenience in affording it, I will say, is there anything you really believe that will pay off later in future that you will consider convenience first before you give it a shot? If u can't afford it then no wahala but if can afford it but maybe not conveniently then its no problem. Eg. If you can't afford skool fees conveniently, will you rather sit down at home? If you can't afford to pay the medical bills for your sick child conveniently, would you rather allow the child to die? My point is I don't think convenience should be considered as priority if you can see a bright future on something you intend to achieve.

For crying out loud, if you can find money to deliver your child abroad and make the child have dual citizenship, I believe you are doing yourself and the child a favour. The truth is most public hospitals in Nigeria aren't well equipped and secondly the way those nurses also handle the pregnant women is really upsetting. My dear. I will spend my last dime to see that my kids have another option as citizens. That's the reason I believe many Nigerians are flying out to deliver. To give thier kids another option if Nigeria no better by the time they are grown. Some women were pregnant abroad during the 60s and 70s and flew back to Nigeria to deliver. That was when the dollar to Naira made sense. <br /><br />I have heard of many women who lost their babies due to improper management and skill. <br /><br />Except u have money to go to the private expensive hospitals. Its tough. Na so so prayer oh <br />esquirenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4970158058179666549.post-14386764223881170762015-10-03T21:29:18.483+01:002015-10-03T21:29:18.483+01:00Each to his own as the saying goes.

We wld only be deceiving ourselves if we say nigerian medical facility is better dan dos advance countries we talk about. Someone who has 'enough' money would nt see any big deal in giving birth abroad. Personally, even dou i dnt av d money naw, i stil dont see anytin wrong in giving birth abroad its ur choice once u av d capacity nd u did not tk 'loan' just to do that. But i understand perfectly d angle you are speaking from, some pple truly inconvenience dem selves just to join d trend. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4970158058179666549.post-24851826776664705672015-10-03T21:13:03.621+01:002015-10-03T21:13:03.621+01:00Anuoluwapo, I personally want to have my child in ...Anuoluwapo, I personally want to have my child in the country they will be living...
