I think Dr Lee is oK, it closes at 6:00pm. How about your daughter? Is she alright now? My son also had this experience when he was about 1 year. Take care.
You live in Daly City where belongs to San Mateo County. I think you better to use San Mateo benefits. I used Healthy Family for my kids when I have just arrived. It was so cheap. I applied it in the health center (at 90 st). There was a social worker who helped me to apply this insurance because I was at the rank of lower income at that time. Now, I am not qualified because my employers provide me health plan for my whole family.
My son entered pre-school when he was two and half years old. During the first year, he got sick in almost every month. I still remembered his first month to school. He always got sick and attended the school for about 1 week only. But he learnt a lot in the school. He liked the school after certain time and he asked me not to pick him up so early.
Just realised that there is a Mother Club for US and even a thread for SanFranciscan.
I don't live in SF but all my family do. I have a question need all your help.
Is it a must to have insurance covered for delivery? My situation is: I have a green card but now in HK and did not buy insurance in US for these years. Wondering whether I shall go back to SF to deliver.
I have a friend from Boston saying that if no insurance, hospital not even let you stay.
But today, read from newspaper that it costs on ly US$7000 to deliver for non-US citizen in US??
Very confused now.
Wondering any one can tell me how much does it cost if giving birth in private hospital in San Francisco if not insured? How long shall I stay until getting all the necessary documents for the bb ?
it's never be easy to give birth without your husband on the side.
I mean not just the delivery time but the prenancy peiod. if your family will in S.F.,you can think
50-70% works out okay after gave birth because u needs lots of helping hand : to cook and to clean.
If u already have your green card, I would suggest u gave birth in hk if your husband cannot company u for the time needs.after gave birth,and rest enough, go ahead and plan to come within every 6 months. airtickets is the price for the passport, gets the test and became us citizen
, if the kid is under 18 years old , the day when u gets the passport , he/she will became us citizen direct.however , if u are a strong woman and u can
bear lonesome , u can came to the us to gave birth , but I have seen some cases that the mother is suffered ( emotional problems after gave birth).think twice if it worths.
:lol:
Thanks 5Y & vesley,
With your suggestions and from my SF friends (she told me that if bb is born in US, he cannot get HK ID/SAR passport until he stays in HK for 7yrs+), I decided to stay in HK to deliver.
vesley, one question about going back every 6 months. Will the immegration challenge me after knowing my baby is not born in US and seems staying in HK or flying back and forth frequently? Will it jeopardize my chance to become us citizen?
being separate with the baby is not easy ,
but there is people coming to the states within 6 months , in order to maintain the status and became us citzen.
but that's the price for citizenship.
u have to find a dependable person who can take care the kid while u are away for the week / month.another choice is : if affordable. make a trip
for the family , get your husband , a v visa ???( that u have to ask the immi. consulate) I heard from radio program singtao.
I remember my price for air ticket is can't recall.
the crazy things is my co workers teased me for taking flight like bus.well, I still think it's worth the price.
I am glad I am US citizen.
Hello vesley,
Yes, I am still thinking about it. Glad that you are happy with being a US citizen, I am always worry that my husband or myself can't find jobs in US. And we are not young, we also worry how to get into the US community. Would you share your experiences with me?
How are you? How are your little baby? It is flu season right now. My daughter got fever after the first day of school. She's OK right now. But she got a reminder yesterday that the teacher told me she always felt tired and sleepy in the class this week. Take care.
This is the long weekend coming. What will you do? I really want to take a break. But my kids would like to go park. Have a nice weekend.
How are you doing? My kids both took flu shot in Nov. I will bring them to take the 2nd shot later. I think she is OK right now.
I also feel very boring too. But my kids like US because they like playing in the park all the time. Most of time, we only bring them to park to spend their energy. We didn't go anywhere during the Christmas break. You were so happy that you have been to HK. It is true that this principal Mr Moser doesn't want the kids to skip the school day to travel. I think you take an accuse such as to visit your parents or other reasons to leave next time. Don't let him know to leave for vacation. I hope I can take vacation to bring the kids to HK this summer.
