I'm definitely feeling you on that one,this is only one of many bills and more keep popping up every week!<br /><br />Courtney: Four failed attempts! That's so awful! No one took me very seriously when I told them mine wasn't working so they didn't try to redo it. Instead they just pumped a load of morphine through it without telling me!<br /><br />Kat: That's so great that the state is covering that! Our insurance will hopefully cover some of this, but still! that's a lot of money!! I wonder if failed epidurals are really common...<br /><br />Paige: me tooo! let's prank call them together! ;)alliehallmarrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03080509329608296428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4156351442538003882.post-81223122075817299972010-06-26T01:35:08.745-05:002010-06-26T01:35:08.745-05:00I am feeling murderous.I am feeling murderous.Paige Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08047030875440759086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4156351442538003882.post-11679568715368613532010-06-25T20:53:32.685-05:002010-06-25T20:53:32.685-05:00mine didnt work either !!!! i actually had a bad r...mine didnt work either !!!! i actually had a bad reaction to it and had to have an adrenaline shot to reverse the effects , felt the entire labor , delivery and 26 stiches . but im glad i did , that bill is nutts , in missouri the second you find out you are pregnant you are covered by the state , my child cost my nothing but pain to be brought into this world . that bill is a bummer sorry !!Kat Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14757733922095141950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4156351442538003882.post-66520953711380537472010-06-25T15:27:43.965-05:002010-06-25T15:27:43.965-05:00Can I get an amen?

That's not what you need when someone is doing something delicate to your back while you're about to have a baby!<br /><br />I don't know if I should even get started about my bills for the birth. We'll just say my pregnancy was a "pre-existing" condition and then I had an emergency... and our hospital is about $50 - 60,000... Boo! We'll get a discount...
