Preparing to have your baby
Congratulations on your delivery! To help you prepare for this exciting journey, HonorHealth offers a variety of resources to help you have a smooth delivery and adjust to caring for your newborn at home. From birthing classes, pre-registration and what to pack in your hospital bag, we have you covered.
Childbirth classes and prenatal tours
To help you learn as much as possible about your pregnancy and life with your new baby, we provide several helpful maternity and childbirth classes, led by our knowledgeable care team.
You can also take a virtual or in-person tour of Scottsdale Shea and Sonoran Crossing birthing centers.
Review your insurance coverage and benefits
Before having your baby, it's a good idea to review your insurance coverage and benefit information to understand what your plan includes. You can also call your insurance company to see how quickly you can add your baby to your policy after being born.
Pre-register for your delivery
To prepare the care team for your arrival, please pre-register at an HonorHealth hospital. You can pre-register any time after your first visit with your obstetrician and before you are 28 weeks along.
Pre-register using MyChart
If you’re an HonorHealth patient, you can sign in to MyChart to pre-register for your upcoming delivery by following these steps.
- Select the “Menu” for a list of drop-down options.
- Scroll down to the “Find Care” section and select "Register for My Delivery."
- Complete the questionnaire and click submit.
After you’ve completed the pre-registration questionnaire, a team member will contact you prior to your delivery date. They will finalize all the details and review your insurance information to get you ready for your delivery.
Are you new to MyChart? Need help signing up?
If you’re new to HonorHealth and don’t have a MyChart account, you’ll need to create one before completing the pre-registration questionnaire.
