:) ..the birth + newborn care is supposed to add up to $3,700. :p In NY state though insurance is usually required to cover homebirth so i SHOULD be able to get it paid for. In the end when we had Avi, WITH insurance, at a hospital, we paid $4,100! So even if we HAVE to pay up, it'll be less...my pal in cinci had a homebirth in july and that cost $2000. In Ohio though insurance doesn't usually pay, and Certified Nurse Midwives aren't allowed to attend homebirths, only Certified Professional Midwives. :p I've got a homebirth pal in columbus too. they both had fantastic births and great midwives. :)

yeh, this time it would've definitely been cheaper to have ryan at a hospital. but there was no way britt could persuade me to go to the hosp again. :) they would have induced me with ryan cause i was "late" :p
