A pregnancy will have many doctor visits and tests so you will want to apply for Medicaid as soon as you find out that you are pregnant.

The earlier you apply for Medicaid in your pregnancy the better off you will be, however you could wait till your third trimester if you like.

You have as long as you need. Sign up right away so you can get the proper prenatal care for your child. In the case of pregnancy the Social Service Office that you gave your application to will speed up the approval process and you can get approved within two weeks of applying. Almost all pregnant women are accepted.
