If I had had insurance through an employer, it would have been covered same as if I had gone through a hospital, but I had a lot more say about every aspect of my prenatal care, delivery, and postnatal choices going through midwives.
And both kiddos haven't been all that expensive afterwards either, as I haven't had to bother with formula costs or pesky recurring diaper costs. :D
My oldest is starting to cost me a bit more as I have her enrolled in swimming and dance classes now. My girls are the only grandbabies in the family, so I almost never have to shell out for clothes and toys --- grandmas love to do that! hehehe
