Dr troubles

[MommytobeSeptember13]

I'm a ftm and if I calculated correctly I'm about 12 weeks and haven't gone to the doctor yet due to the situation I'm currently in. I'm waiting for my Medicaid to approve me so I don't have to pay out of pocket for my first visit. I haven't had anything bad happen to me for me to think my babies not ok but I'm really worried. I don't know what to do... does anyone have any suggestions?

I'm eating as healthy as I can and I take my vitamins everyday like I'm supposed to. (:

Currently on medic aid... and they didn't make me wait they advised they backdate bills for up to 90 days maybe you should call your local office to be sure

Are yu due sept 13th? Im due sept 14th! :) but as long as youre eating ok and takint your vitamins yu should be fine. Yu should see if yu have a Womens Care Center in your area. They give free ultrasounds and you can see your baby even if you don5 have insurance yet. Thats what i did. All i wanted to see was the heartbeat and that lifted a weight off my shoulders

Where you live there may be a womens program or health dept that can expedite your insurance. I was in a similar position with my 1st pregnancy, but once the health dept and moms program confirmed my pregnancy and medicaid eligibility I received "Emergency medicaid" which just meant i was covered asap. I wasnt normaly eligible, bc of too much income, but they change the regulations for expectant moms. Hope that helps

As long as you are taking your vitamins and eating right, you are fine. (: I didn't see the doctor till I was 16 weeks due to waiting on insurance and everything was fine:)
