My cousin has had 2 kids with no prenatal care because of low income and no insurance. She simply went to the emergency room when she went into labor and they delivered her baby. She didn't pay for anything because those costs get absorbed by those of us who do pay to have our kids. So, don't worry about the cost of delivery and be thankful that you've had a seemingly healthy pregnancy so far. Information is free, so keep reading online about how to eat right and take care of your body. I'm having a high-risk pregnancy, so prenatal care is essential, but, for the most part, the doctor measures the kid, the heartbeat, and checks blood for signs of something going wrong. The docs don't really DO anything except monitor what's already happening. Don't get me wrong, you better go to a doctor with your next baby! I just don't want you to stress about what you can't change.
While you're reading about pregnancy, be sure to read about symptoms of pre-term labor. Again, go to the emergency room if you start having any serious problems. They have to treat you at that point.
