Meet someone like you.

Many expectant mothers don’t realize they qualify. Here are a few of their stories.

Third Trimester Exhaustion

Serena, 31 — Orlando, FL

Some days Serena manages fine. Other days, the walk from a far parking spot to her OB’s office door is more than her body can handle at 32 weeks. She doesn’t look like she needs accessible parking to a stranger, but her state says she qualifies. She finally got her permit after pushing through weeks of unnecessary strain.

Pregnancy Complications

Christine, 28 — Naperville, IL

Christine still goes to work and looks completely fine from the outside. But between the back pain and the fatigue, crossing a large parking lot leaves her wiped out for hours. Her doctor confirmed her complications affect her mobility. She qualified on her first application.

Portrait of Rachel, an expectant mother in her early thirties
Didn’t Know She Qualified

Rachel, 33 — Atlanta, GA

Rachel assumed pregnancy parking permits were only for people on bed rest. She had no idea her pregnancy complications could qualify, or that a telehealth visit was all it took to find out. She got her signed DMV form the same day. It took five minutes.

Does one of these stories sound familiar?

Or maybe your situation is a little different. Tell us about your pregnancy and we’ll let you know if you qualify. It takes about 5 minutes, and there’s no commitment to continue.

The Problem

Getting a pregnancy permit meant jumping through hoops.

  1. Schedule a doctor’s appointment Wait weeks for availability. Take time off. Explain your pregnancy and complications all over again to someone who’s already overwhelmed.
  2. Get paperwork signed Navigate confusing state DMV forms. Hope your OB fills them out correctly the first time and actually returns them.
  3. Visit the DMV Stand in line while heavily pregnant. Deal with unclear instructions. Then wait even longer for processing.

Before Rocket Records, there was only one way to do this, and it was exhausting.

My OB mentioned this at my 32-week appointment. The swelling and heat were making every errand miserable by then. Did the online visit that day and had the signed form in my email the next morning. Didn't expect it to be that easy.

I had no idea Oklahoma even had this. Found out through a Facebook group for expecting moms. The whole thing was done online, no office visits, no waiting around. Had the form in my email within a few days and took it straight to the DMV.

Last trimester in Chicago winter, I was terrified of slipping on icy parking lots. A friend told me Illinois had a permit for this. Did the telehealth visit from home, had the red placard a few weeks later. Genuinely made the last two months manageable.

You may already qualify and not know it.

Your pregnancy complications are real. You deserve accessible parking. Don’t let delays or confusion hold you back any longer.
