Well when I went for my first appt, they gave me a bunch of forms and one was for registering. As my ob-gyn's office is at the hosp where I plan on delivering (and where I was born!!!) it makes things easier.

Pick a hosp close to you (with a good rep) and call them and ask. They'll probably send you forms.

I received that same form. It's suppose to speed things up. I figure your doc should be giving you all the info. Ask :)

I never registered until a few months before I delivered, but my doc told me where to go and what to do, so I just pretty much rely on him for that stuff.

They def. Give you a hospital form that you are suppose to fill out. And they tell you to fill it out and mail it back in around 22 weeks. If your dotors office gave you a goody bag at your first appt. It would be with all of those papers. Good luck
