Hi ladies 😊
I'm trying to decide whether to go private or public with our first pregnancy. Private seems so expensive, even with insurance! ($2500 at 20 wks + more at 30wks and again more at delivery?!)
Can anyone give me pros/cons to going either public or private? And also, if you had a good on in the private system that didn't cost the earth!
Thanks ladies!! 😘
