Have a visit with the doctor who delivers your baby between three and six weeks after your baby is born. During this visit, talk to your doctor about your family-planning options.
Children should see their doctors regularly from birth through age 20, to make sure they are and stay healthy.
Your baby needs a checkup within seven days of birth. If you do not have a doctor (pediatrician) for your baby:

Members up to age 20 can get any medically necessary health service to treat, prevent, or improve a health problem. This special set of federal benefits is called Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment (EPSDT) services. Healthchek is Ohio’s EPSDT program.
Urgent maternal warning signs
During and after pregnancy, you and your body will go through many changes. Some changes are not normal. They could be a sign of serious complications that can cause long-term effects or even death.
You may not know how to tell the difference between normal and abnormal changes—but you know when something is wrong. If you are concerned about symptoms or changes, talk to your doctor to make sure you get the care you need.
If you are pregnant or have been pregnant within the past year, and have any of these urgent maternal warning signs
