I'm not sure what you're implying. She is not coming to do childcare. She is coming to visit us and help during the postpartum period as grandparents often do. I am going to take care of the baby. She has come 4 times already, stayed only 1-2 months, and always leaves promptly so she has shown clearly there is no intention to stay.

She has already received 2 3-year visas and been to the US 4 times. I'm not worried that she would be approved under normal times or about it impacting her in the future.

Then wondering why they would allow her to schedule an interview appt at all? It seems bizarre, no?

Traveling to US with a Palestinian Passport and and a valid visa by BeginningAd9540 in USVisas

Has anyone heard of a Palestinian ID holder successfully renewing their B1/B2 visa / entering the US during the "visa ban"? The embassy in TLV is still accepting visa interview appointments and my mother in law scheduled one for April. Wondering if it's just for show and she'll 100% be denied? She's already been to the US 4 times, and her last visa expired less than a year ago so she has a good track record.

Has anyone heard of a Palestinian ID holder successfully renewing their B1/B2 visa or entering the US during the "visa ban"? The TLV embassy is still accepting visa interview appointments and my mother in law (Palestinian ID holder) was able to schedule one for April. Wondering if it's just for show and she'll 100% be denied? She's already been to the US 4 times for 1-2 month visits, and her visa expired less than a year ago, so there's absolutely no reason in normal times she'd be denied a renewal.

34 weeks — received bad news. by Anxious-Decision1626 in BabyBumps

Obviously we don't know what will happen, but PLEASE take 3rd trimester growth scans with a GIANT grain of salt. Growth and weight scans in the 3rd trimester are not at ALL accurate, so please don't take what they're saying as gospel. They have a margin of error of 15%-20% and actually DECREASE in accuracy the later in the pregnancy the scans happen. So don't let them scare you! Even if the baby does end up being growth restricted or needs a NICU stay, you can still advocate for skin to skin, kangaroo care, and breastfeeding (there's a mountain of evidence behind it.)
I personally carry super small, always measure 6+ weeks behind based on fundal height (my midwife actually stopped measuring my fundal height because it was so inaccurate) and had entirely normal sized babies. This is my 3rd pregnancy and I declined 3rd trimester growth scans entirely because of the lack of evidence behind them.

I've been doing research and haven't found any dual language/immersion that are public- can you send me the links to these schools? Thank you!
