Cost of childbirth
In the U.S., the average cost of a vaginal birth is $13,024, including standard predelivery and postdelivery expenses such as facility fees and doctor fees. A cesarean section (C-section) is much more expensive, costing an average of $22,646 including standard predelivery and postdelivery expenses.
Looking at the numbers above, I appreciate the great health insurance coverage I have. My wife stayed at the hospital for a couple of nights to recover too...All I can say is it pays to have great health insurance! O0
