I had a daughter in October 2008 and it was $11K! My son was born in December 2009 it was $12K then another $600 for his circ. That was not including lab fees, anthest. fees for my epi etc....

I have 90/10 Aetna insurance so I didn't pay near what it cost to have them.

Just remember that the explanation of benefits that comes in the mail is not what a self-pay person would pay.  The amount billed to the insurance is way higher because insurance companies don't ever pay the full amounts.  Example - even though my PCP bills my insurance $160 for an office visit, self pay only pays $60

My son was a NICU baby.  He was in the NICU for a whole 3 days.

His bill -- not OUR bill -- HIS bill was over $12,000.

My bill was the one that included labor and delivery, and it was less than his.

Wow, I definately can answer this one.  I have no insurance as well, none at all.

For my doctor to deliver me, the upfront cost with the cash discount is $3300
For each visit I pay $68 for the urine handling and testing
For my u/s they are $150 a piece
For the hospital, upfront with cash discount it is $5800.

Im due in about a month so we will see if there is anything extra.
