Ok so I chose a pediatrician. When do I need to contact him?

I didn't with my first. the hospital called one of their pediatricians and I've stayed with him for all of my kids now. they call after you have the baby at the hospital tho

I would contact them now to see when you should get ahold of them

I called the office and asked what I needed to do to use their services and the lady said to call them once the baby is born and they will come look at him. it was pretty simple. if you think about it you can't really fill out paperwork or anything on a little one not born yet

I've always had to call after the baby was born. :)

it's better to call now, that way you know if they are accepting new patients, and they will be expecting to have to see baby around the EDD.

I did that with my other two, and the Dr came to the hospital for first visit. may be different where you live

call now to make sure they are accepting new patients and ask if they will be the baby's dr.... then all you have to do is tell the hospital when you have the baby who the Dr is and they will contact them
