We had our baby in February and still haven't gotten a bill yet. When should I expect this? Blue Cross Blue Shield

You get a bill from the hospital. You get an EOB (explanation of benefits) from the insurance company. Log into to BCBS to see if they have posted your EOB yet.
If it's not there it's because the hospital hasn't sent the bill to the insurance company yet.

Congrats on the baby.
Did you pay anything to the hospital yet?
On both of our kids birth (last one 8 years ago) We pay a co-pay of $50 to the OBGYN which covered all of her services from, pre-natal care through one post-hospital visit, a co-pay of $50 to the pediatrician which covered all of her services at the hospital, and a $1500 co-pay to the hospital. The $1500 co-pay for the hospital, we paid before my wife was admitted.
If you don't have a plan with a flat co-pay, then the hospital will bill the insurance company, they will pay what they pay, and then the hospital will send you a bill for your portion. It can take a few months.
Keep in mind other doctors may bill you as well.

We got a bill for the anesthesiologist about 3 or 4 months after our daughter was born. Everything else for the OB/delivery was collected in the months leading up to the birth.

3-6 months for first bill.
Don’t pay them immediately. First, request itemized billing from hospital. Then, dispute any charges necessary. Once you think you have it as accurate as you can get it ask them what type of discount they will give you if you pay it in full. They will likely knock at least 10% off. Then, pay with credit card and get points.

Make sure it didn't get lost in the mail. You don't want a knock on the door from the re-po man.

My son was born mid February - I just got the hospital bill today.
