Kaiser Coverage / Birth

Does anyone have experience they can share? I have a pretty good health plan with Kaiser Northern California, $500 deductible. They just gave me an estimate for almost $2000 for a vaginal birth.

Someone let me know how payment worked & how much you paid in total possibly!! Ty

EDIT: It says the (almost) $2000 is my 20% coinsurance. My out of pocket max is 2,500

I had an unplanned C Section at a SoCal Kaiser through my work’s Kaiser HMO and it was $250. I’m not sure if it’s just my plan that I have but as a family we have no deductible but a $6000 out of pocket max.

I have Kaiser Southern California and you don't really pay anything. Birth should be covered and I didn't have to pay a deductible. I only paid for certain medications and a $100 hospital stay.

I paid $225 a day. For both my births.

My experience is with Kaiser is in South California. When I was in the hospital we paid $3000 for a vaginal birth and was told that later we'd get a bill for the rest. It was a total of $8000. Because the baby went to NICU I had to pay more than that, but for the birth it was only the $8000.

Ladies help. Me and my husband just don't have sex anymore.

After the baby we had sex a few times in the first few months but now it's probably been about 3 months since we last had sex. I'm 11.5 months postpartum. My sex drive used to be low. It ain't super high now but I want sex but my husband is always tired. Granted he worked shifts and it's been hard trying to find time to fit it in around baby's schedule and his work schedule but now he's off work for a couple of weeks and he just doesn't initiate. Neither do I anymore because I can't be asked with the rejection. So I've resorted to masturbating and a vibrator but I want some real flesh man I'm bursting. I posted on another chat before and ladies said he sounded depressed etc as he doesn't look after himself well with eating and always being tired but how do we get out of this rut? Other aspects of our marriage is good but sex is important and at this point I feel like I'm begging.

Question

I just found out the guy I’m having a baby with blocked me on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok but left my number and Snapchat unblocked. I don’t bother or speak to him; I just let him be. He even bailed on me for the first ultrasound, which he kept asking me to come to, so I’m just confused about why he would block me when I literally don’t bother him or ask him for anything. He had a girl who liked him harass him for a few weeks, and she even harassed me to the point where I had to get a restraining order. He hasn’t messaged me all this month asking about the baby or anything would I be wrong if just went ahead and helped him out and blocked him on Snapchat and my number since he blocked me everything else

Who else gets a worse week before you start? I know it happens and I know it will be like this all the time, it’s just I can’t help it and just feel so sad and depressed all the time with it. I have my happy moments but then I just get sad. Little things upset me or I think I’m the problem. This is the time where I need someone to vent to or just talk to. This app yes connects us with people but we never really hit it off like some say they do. I may be getting old for this…I’m 34 and still have no friend. I have lived in my town for 8 years and I still don’t have someone I can call or text. I pray so much for a friendship…when will it be me??
