Anyone on here have a probem with their insurance like getting on their spouses. I know I am pregnant but I have not been to the dr to confirm it yet because i have no insurance until the hubby just put me on his a week ago. Am I going to be denied coverage because of becoming pregnant?

    You shouldn't. They may want confirmation of pregnancy! Pregnancy isn't considered a pre-existing condition. I was also going to mention you many want to take your full name out of your siggy..there are some real weirdo's on the net and for safety I would remove it! :) Good luck with the insurance!

    She is Very right!! They legally can not say it is a pre-exsiting condition!!

    It really depends on the plan. DH's old plan stipulated that once I was added to the policy, we had an 18 month waiting period before maternity benefits kicked in.

    ETA: Otherwise what's to stop people from getting cheap catastrophic care insurance with no maternity benefits and then jumping on someone else's plan the day they get their BFP.

    My husband added me to his insurance during pregnancy. we had to wait at least 30 days for it to process. No problem. Good Luck
