No Luxury After All

I got a call the other day from the Baylor hospital wanting to collect their $10,000 for my labor and delivery. I've already paid my doctor thousands (again, thank God for my business) and will still owe an anesthesiologist and whatever other bills come flowing in when the baby is born. But the nice people at Baylor would only make me pay around $7,000 if I pay cash before delivery. Which is all fine and good and totally understandable, but I remember Harris only being like $4,500 or $5,000. We gave Harris a call and yes, they are way cheaper. So baby 3 will be born at the same place baby 1 and 2 were born, which I loved and had no problem with, but I was really excited about delivering at the new, fancy, beautiful Baylor that I have heard so many great things about.

I don't like to stay at the hospital long anyway, so I have my doctor release me as soon as they are allowed to, which is 24 hours after delivery. So if all goes well, I will be back home too soon to really care about the hospital stay part anyway.

All of you people with good insurance out there, specifically maternity, be so glad, this gets soooo expensive!!!!
