Traveling at the time of pregnancy

Tiffany786

Next month I am going to Germany with my husband. I am 22 weeks pregnant. I think in this situation insurance is must. What would be best for me travel insurance or health insurance? I am not sure does German government provide health insurance for traveler? I am not sure what I have to do? Please someone help me.

It all depends on what kind of high risk issues that you have.  You didn't state it in your post.  For example, for me with incompetent cervix, my OB had me on a no travel ban after the first trimester.  

Is there a chance you could deliver early? Talk to your doctor about risks that associated with your pregnancy and then read the terms of the insurance policies carefully.  If you think you may end up in the hospital due to complications during your trip, get health insurance.  Travel policies tend to be quite limited.

Doctor says that  there is no chance of early delivery. I also think about health insurance.I was searching for more information about health insurance on Germany. Then one of my German Facebook friend recommended me to visit this site https://www.covomo.com/health-insurance-tourists-info/. I got some information from this site. It is saying that I can get health insurance under one condition; I have to provide your European Healthcare Insurance Card. As a citizen of EU, I hope it won't be too difficult for me to get health insurance in Germany.
