Maternity insurance is nuts in Texas...I qualified for Medicaid, but my doctor didn't take it, so we paid out of pocket for all my appointments and ultrasounds when we were living there. We would have paid for the birth out of pocket too, but we moved to California 2 months before she was born and found a midwife who took Medi-Cal here:)<br />I would never personally do a homebirth...I have too many friends who did and had absolutely awful things happen to them or their babies, because if something goes wrong and you're not feet from an OR...well, it's not good.<br />BUT, if I had a crystal ball and knew everything would be fine, I totally would have. I would have had just Jay and me there, if I could have:) <br />I had a midwife in a hospital with no pain meds and came home about 24 hours after she was born, so it was a good compromise for me...but yeah, if she hadn't been face-up, she would have been born on the bathroom floor at home guaranteed, and I'm sure everything would have been just fine...but I'm just not willing to take the risk:)<br />It must have been so amazing to see someone give birth...wow.
