Hey hun. I would call back to Family Care. and tell them that you are pregnant. No matter how much money a person makes usually they can still get mdicaid for the unborn baby. which will cover your OB visits. And also the birth and stuff like that. Call and ask for a supervisor.............
I'm from Alabama, so I'm not sure about NJ Family Care.
Medicaid pays for doctor visits..medicines... Etc. I am going to the health department to confirm this pregnancy because it is free for me. I'll choose my doctor from a list they'll give me. To get on Medicaid varies here. Sometimes it takes a week or so... Other times it takes a few weeks. For me the sooner the better. I need insurance. lol
I am taking my prenatals every day. But I always get confused with Medicaid is it like NJ Family Care? I am not working but they still won't give it to me. Do you mind me asking what state you live in?
It does take a while to get approved. I also have no insurance. I am 5 weeks 3 days pregnant and wont have insurance until DF and I get married in a few months... So the steps I am taking is when I get to the doctor, I will get this pregnancy confirmed... I've confirmed it 16 times at home lol... And run next door to get on Medicaid.
Most doctors won't see you until you are about 7-8 weeks anyway...but take prenatals even if over the counter. I take One A Day Prenatal's. Try to relax and I am sure you'll get approved soon!
Actually i applied last tuesday so that's over a week.
