any tricare reserve select moms out there?

Breanna
Once baby is born, we will be using tricare reserve select. I'm on my moms until then and I'm due feb 19. My question is..when should hubby and i sign up for it and will baby get approved in time for his first checkup? Or do i just bring hubbys insurance card to the first apt if baby doesn't have ine yet and that be enough? A girl i used to work with said the dr may delay submitting a claim until insurance gets squared away, then we resubmit the bills for payment. Does that sound right?
