I live in Nigeria and is due to give birth in two months, how much will it cost me to have my baby in canada?

Question

i want to know if i can travel to canada to have my first baby so i want to know the financial implications

Answer 1

you will have to pay all doctor and hospital bills   this could be thousands of dollars.

and if you have any complications it will be a lot more

having a baby in Canada will not give you the right to live there,you will have to leave when your visa expires

when you arrive in Canada the customs officer can deny you entry if he is suspicious of you coming to have your baby and thinks you are a risk of overstaying your visa so i would think very hard before trying it

Answer 2

Most airlines recommend that you 'NOT' travel during your last three months of pregnancy as the thin air pressure can cause problems.  Perhaps it is best that you have your baby in Nigeria, for the sake of the baby's safety.

Answer 3

You must be in Canada 3 months  You will  be lucky if the allow you in or the Airline will let you board

Answer 4

I highly doubt they will let you fly to Canada since you're so close to your due date. You'll also need the proper visa or other documents. If you do manage to get to Canada, delivery alone would cost about 3,000 dollars. I'm an American and am married to a Canadian but don't have residency or medicare yet so we have to pay out of pocket. Delivery at the hospital I'll be going to is 3,000 dollars and doesn't include the room fee and doctor fee. I'm not sure if it varies by province or hospital either.

Answer 5

Highly unlikely you could ever have all the necessary documentation prepared in time unless you have already made application.
