The Hunt is On

One of my co-workers referred me to his Bradley instructor, who then referred me to a midwife in Beverly Hills. I met with her today. She was a lovely human being who totally understood my desire to have a wonderful birth experience. But.....and there always is one, she is not in my health insurance network.

Her fee's are stiff and you have to pay upfront. Insurance will pay a portion of these costs but not guaranteed all of them. If I did medically need a c-section I'd most likely get NO reimbursement.

So again I walk off with my tail tucked between my legs, feeling defeated. Back to the drawing board in my hunt for a midwife in my insurance network.
