@mcgeelisha,
I think it may depend on your state. I live in nj and I have ins for me but baby is on Medicaid. I applied a month before my due date. on the application, it asks if you are pregnAnt. check that box, and then just fill in the information about yourself and then send in the application. once the baby is born, you need to provide the crib card from the hospital and that's all until you get the baby's ss card and what not. it took 2 weeks to get my Medicaid card in the mail. I suggest applying before the baby is born otherwise you will have to pay cash at your baby's first drs appt... which is within a week after the baby is born. and yes, find a pedi who accepts Medicaid.
