Also, consider Family Practice doctors for your child, too. This will you give you more options and choice. Many do not know that Family doctors take care of children and adults. They are also tend to use more evidence-based practices (generally speaking) and you may go to the same place for you and your husbands care as well your child's.

@jessie- i have tricare and i have already called and talked to them....i would just call early because you know how they are the 'rules' change everytime you take a breath...atleast if you call early take notes and names so you have something to go off of when the baby is born

I agree with Jennifer, your insurance should pick up your child as well, as for looking for a pediatrician, I am not sure considering with my insurance, "Tricare" I am assigned a doctor. But I am not sure when I need to get a hold of them.
