Prenatal Care – What to Expect

Your provider will work with you so you know how often your appointments will be, what will be covered at each appointment and the helpful tips on fetal movement, medication guidelines, nutrition and anti-nausea suggestions.

Important Pre-Delivery Information

Expectant Mother Pre-Registration

You can fill out the pre-registration form on MyBellinHealth. Once logged in, select "Your Menu," then select "Register for my Delivery," and then fill out the online registration form and submit.

You can also request a paper registration form at the front desk of your clinic.

Pediatrician Selection

Upon delivery, you will be asked the name of your pediatrician as they will be notified of your baby's birth and provide care during the hospital stay. We recommend you begin the process of selecting a Bellin Health pediatrician with enough time to choose the right provider for you and your family prior to baby’s arrival.

Insurance Coverage

Many insurance companies require pre-certification prior to admission. It will be helpful to call your insurance company to pre-certify and discuss coverage. Remember to bring all insurance cards and identification numbers when you come to the hospital.

Advance Directive

You will be asked if you have an Advance Directive. Advance care planning ensures your choices and wishes about your healthcare are honored — and allows you to name someone to express those choices for you if you are no longer able to do so. If you have completed an Advance Directive, a copy should be brought to the hospital with you.

Bellin Hospital Maternity Unit Tours

We offer tours of our maternity unit at Bellin Hospital, and those can be scheduled in person at the front desk of your Bellin Health obstetrics clinic or by calling our team.
