Does anyone know who will cover me ?
I'm only going camping in France and will be 31-34 weeks then.

TIA Smile

I went to Italy at 26 weeks and got cover through Direct Line - it was £35 to cover me and DH for the week.

After reading the southsearocks thread on here, I specifically asked about cover for both me and baby if something happened while we were away. The lady I spoke to said they would cover both of us, and that they weren't allowed to treat me any differently because I'm pregnant, provided I told them before taking the policy. I'm not sure if that's true (it was quite a while ago, and am struggling the remember the conversation!), so I'd ask plenty of questions to make sure you'll be covered for any eventuality!

What happened on the southsearocks thread?
Can they provide cover for an unborn baby?

I've just sorted mine out today. Cost £30 for me, DP and DS for two weeks to Greece. I'll be 28 weeks when we travel our, 30 weeks on return. Got it now as should cover cancellation in case of any complications arising between now and when we go.

Her waters broke at 28 weeks while she was in America, and she ended up having to stay in hospital for a few weeks till her wee one was born. (Sorry, not to freak you out or anything!)

As I said, Direct Line had no issue with covering me, so I'm sure you'll get cover no problem. I was just a bit paranoid about making sure all bases were covered.

DirectLine told me the same as SerenaJoy - no limits to cover and the baby is covered too.

Try Ravenhall travel insurance www.ravenhallgroup.co.uk/ they do a Pregnant Traveller insurance (including medical) for mums and bumps up to 36 weeks. They've covered us for Turkey and I'll be 31/32 weeks.
