I am currently 6 weeks pregnant. My husband and I are going to Dallas on May 28th for his internship. Where I currently live, I am registered with a community hospital and have set up a payment plan for my visits. The hospital told me that the doctor plans to see me and perform my prenatal tests (such as blood tests, urinalysis, CBC, etc.) on June 9th, since it’s still too early right now.

We requested an earlier appointment and scheduled one for May 18th. However, the hospital mentioned that this visit might only be a travel consultation, and the doctor may not perform any tests or ultrasound at that time.

We will be traveling by car, which will take about 3 days (around 20 hours total). I don’t want to stay alone, so I may need to travel back to my state again later, which would be very tiring. Although I don’t currently have nausea or dizziness, it still feels like a long and exhausting journey.

Does anyone know of any places in Dallas where I can complete prenatal tests in low cost as I don’t have any insurance? I will add the list of tests below. What would you suggest I do? Should I come back to my current doctor for the tests, or can I complete them in Dallas? If I do them in Dallas, how can I share the results with my doctor?

Or should I see a doctor in Dallas instead? We will be moving back to our state on August 21st, so we will be there for almost 3 months.

Hello,

I’m currently 6 weeks pregnant. We are planning to apply for Medicaid since my husband’s income is low. However, around the time of delivery, we may need to move from one state to another. My due date is around December 29th, and my husband’s new job is expected to start sometime between January 1st and 15th, although the exact date is not confirmed yet.

I’m planning to give birth in the state I’m living right now. If my husband does not have any income from December 10th to January 1st (as the fall semester will end on December 10th), will I still be covered by Medicaid? Or should I look for another health insurance option?

Please advise. I’m really worried about this situation.

Edit: I don’t want two medicaid in 2 states. I just want to use the Medicaid to the state I give the born to the child.
