I'm using one, just haven't given birth there yet. They are way cheaper than a hospital birth, and they even offer payment plans. Plus the time they spend with you is longer, rather than an ob.
I called the two closest ones to me today, and the cheapest one is an hour away. It's $5,000, not including ultrasounds. The other one was $6,000 and was an hour the opposite way.
We talked about payment plans today and she said it would be anywhere from $300-$400 a month, so i'm pretty sure we are going to be using them. @ErikaK22
Yep they are better than using a hospital. Mine was only $4499, and I only had to pay them $500. Plus you're not going to be stuck for 2 days in the hospital. They usually let you go home after 4-6hrs after birth.
@ErikaK22 that's another reason why I would rather use a birthing center than a hospital. Braiden will almost be two and I would love to be home with him as soon as possible
That's why I wanted a birthing center as well. My son will be 14 months when this baby comes, and he's allowed in the room with me, which I like. Plus I wouldn't be able to care for him like I do if I had to go to the hospital.
