Wife and I are expecting. Have a bronze Health Ins from the market place. Have seen that Olathe Healths avg for a baby is 14,000+(no c section) is this legit? Does this 14k include all the delivery and professional costs? Does anyone remember being billed way more than that?

      To be fair, I paid her to sleep with me in the first place….

      Just kidding we have a very normal, happy relationship but between 14K a complete lack of medical support post delivery we are weighing the cost of having a baby in Ks or just leaving work for 6 months and going to her country as she is a dual citizenship.

        Do the latter, and schedule staying as long as you can. I honestly believe you’re safer outside the US right now.

          Hard agree. Especially if she has some other nationality. That might soon be an… issue.

          As at least one parent (if not both) has US citizenship, your child will have access to that even if born elsewhere. They don’t seem to be rushing to eliminate that just yet.
