*sigh*
I've been planning for a home birth for years, and I can see it's not going to be easy.
Since my OH cannot add me to his insurance until after the baby, I filed for Medicaid. Medicaid is good for prenatal visits, but in my state it will not cover the fees of a midwife although there fees are typically much less than that of a hospital birth......
I'm considering an unassisted childbirth, but I know OH will not like it. In fact, he was highly ambivalent to me having a homebirth with a midwife.
If I go to a hospital I most likely will not have the birth I envisioned.
On top of that I just feel generally unattractive. I'm very bloated and constipated (sorry if that's tmi). I mean very, like I'm carrying 5 lbs of excess weight around the tummy.
