According to my halfassed search engine results, giving birth costs on average $18,000.

Just the cost of epidural, estimates range from $1000 to $3500 out of that cost.

Lol, you guys get ripped of.
A whole hospital stay for a normal uncomplicated birth in Germany with Epidural is just 3600€ (that's what the hospital gets paid, and most of them are for-profit in Germany)
