Travel insurance when you are pregnant

Hi,

Was going to post this on the holidays forum but think I might get better responses here!

We are planning to go on holiday when I will be 23-24 weeks pregnant (start-finish).

Does anyone have experience of how much this makes travel insurance go up?? I have had a straightforward preg so far and I am classed as low-risk.

Used to paying around £25 for travel insurance for me and DH for a single trip, how much do you think this will go up by? Where is the best place to get travel insurance if you are expecting?

Thanks!

    I dont think you will have any trouble getting travel insurance as i think most insurance companies cover up to about 27 weeks. Just make sure you look at the T&C's. With regards to costs it didnt cost me anymore than usual as you dont actually need to declare that your pregnant.

    When you go away make sure you take your pregancy notes. Hope that helps.
  • Oooh didn't realise you don't have to actually declare it!

    Thanks for the info. Will make sure to check with airline what their policy is, and yes notes are definitely coming with me!
