I went to my state healthcare site and applied. It took less than an hour and I was immediately covered by medicaid. You just need to know your yearly income, have 3 pay stubs, and general tax information. Super easy.

I live in Oregon and just applied for the Oregon health plan. They r going to send me some more paperwork to fill out and I hope I qualify but not sure I will because of my income. Either way I need to get insurance especially if something unexpected happens. I hope u can get on some kind of insurance soon

Apply for medicaid. Now that your pregnant, you count as 2 people and the income limits are higher. Apply because You might qualify.

If u can find a women's clinic in ur area that would b ideal. They will still take u but u will pay out of pocket. I also have no insurance and have my first apt next week at 8 wks along. I'm going to a free women's clinic. It does take longer to get in tho :(
