  • WHY DO U NOT QUALIFY?

    I LIVE IN TEXAS
  • AND REMEMBER, everything will be fine.

    IMPOSSIBLE SITUATIONS ARE gODS CHANCES TO SHINE THE BRIGHTEST!
  • It says you can only make like $5,000 a year, im doing a little better than that, I don't know how long its gonna take him to find a job and I am freaking out
  • A lot of times there are exceptions for pregnant women when it comes to dep. Of social and health services. (DSHS)
  • Ok, I'll look into it again
  • I'm in ny, so it might be different, but before I got pregnant I could never get Medicaid. Now I count as two people, so I qualify. Make sure your checking the right income guidelines. Here the cutoff for pregnant women is around $1,300 a month. Good luck :)
  • Ok, thank you
  • Ours for a family of three (me baby and husband) we couldn't make more than 29000 a year
  • Coverageforall.com got this link from the what to expect book. Good luck!
  • I live in houston and they have county insurance called the gold card. U only have copays which depend on ur income but ev1 qualifies who dont have insurance
  • yes in texas if u are pregnant u are almost guarenteed medicaid. i make for than 5000 a yr and was given it asap

    u can actually go into an office and get emergency pregnancy medicaid
  • @idepaz18 i live in houston as well thats why when i read that i was confused bc i know tx is great about taking care of pregnant women
  • Neat, I'll head to the office tomorrow. Thank ya'll so much, i'm trying to be strong for my husband but with these hormones its hard
  • @singlemomofsontobe3: yea...lol

    @kimberly4411: totally understand! Me and my husband are out of work and cannot find anything
