And um - i had no health insurance when Monstrous was born. And i was also in serious denial and didn't go see a doctor 'til i was six months along, so then i only had about four doc visits. I also had Monstrous at home with a midwife, so no crippling hospital bills.
We didn't actually have health insurance of any kind until...um. Three years ago, i think, and Monstrous is now ten, so...it *is* doable. Don't fret over *that* part.
And i was thirty when Monstrous was born with a history of some sort of undiagnosed and chronic 'eat and now i'm gonna barf omg my innards are killing me!' ...thing...which i still have today so...perfect health not required!
Um. Basically what i'm saying is - relax, breathe, eat good food, take walks, and buy monkeys. :)
