I've always wanted a natural home birth or at least one out of a hospital.
Heres the thing, I'm broke, and it costs for me out of pocket, 1600-2600 for a birthing center, and 2900 for home.
My dilemma?
I'm on medicaid so if i go to an OBGyn and deliver at a hospital it costs me nothing. I'm 100% covered.
I have absolutely no support or encouragement to follow through with my dream of a birth outside a hospital, because of the cost.
I have always wanted to deliver at home, I'd even settle for a birthing center, but i don't have the money to do it. And that cost doesnt include ultrasounds, that would be another 150 which i dont have.
