Thats actually not too terrible! Lily was over 20,000! OUCH. Yes, thank GOODNESS for insurence! We'd love to come hold her one day or even babysit, so let us know!
It's expesive! Me & Derek were there a week, and than I was there a month before that you should have seen that bill, plus his surgery 6 months later. Kids are not cheap! Especially when they aren't healthy! It's good little Emily and you were both healthy.
I was gonna say.. that's actually not bad at all. Ashlyn's bill ALONE was over 14,000 and I never even saw the complete bill from me (And c-sections are lots more expensive). But yes.. babies are expensive.. and thank heavens for insurance is right!!
Yep. Thank goodness for insurance!
In Australia you actually make money! Zero cost whatsoever, just a form to fill out and a couple days later you have $5K in your bank account. No insurance needed! The evils of socialism, haha.
Uggh. I am so not looking forward to that. My deductible (HSA) renews at the beginning of the year and I am slightly worried about how it will all work out. I guess I should be glad I met my deductible at the beginning of the year.
Now that i read some of your comments I think I might move to Australia for a few years and finish having these babies. I wonder how the nuclear power industry is down there?
