Pregnancy insurance?

Someone told me that Aflec has a policy for expectant mothers with dibilitating morning sickness, etc. Has anyone heard of this?

Haven't heard of this but it sounds awesome!!

Re: Pregnancy insurance?

I actually just signed up for AFLAC insurance for maternity leave purposes. It's Aflac disability insurance.

You get majority of your income back during your maternity leave. It will cost me $20 a week, but I will collect almost all of my salary. They have different plans at different prices.

You need to be on the program for 2 months before you get pregnant, so you may want to sign up now.

I don't know all the details but they do cover pregnancy issues. Since it's disability insurance I believe if your doctor says you can't work because of it, you'll collect the $$.

I can check my booklet, if you want more info.

Thank you so much for the info. My sister was so sick when she was pregnant and I'm so worried about the same thing happening to me.

I looked into short term disability through Aflac and your employer has to be affliated with Aflac in order to sign up. Unfortunately, mine is not and I couldn't get a policy on my own.
