- hospital birth with epidural - under $2k budget - looking for help with birthing plan, birth and post partum care
Hospital birth, as unmedicated as possible but open to epidural and nitrous oxide use as needed.
Hi there! I am planning to give birth at a hospital and have a very flexible birth plan. Doula care is covered in my insurance (BlueCross BlueShield CareNow) and that is where most of the budget is coming from. My main concern with my birth plan is that the baby and I are both safe and healthy. I do have some anxiety around birth and something going wrong, so emotional support is a must for me. My husband and I are first-time parents so I know that he would also like support as he will be my main support system. We do not plan on having any other visitors in the hospital.
