Does anyone have recommendations for travel insurance.
I will be 27 weeks when I go to Hawaii and most places don't seem to cover pregnancy that far along. Not sure what to do.
TIA for your help

Perhaps ring and ask whether you can get special cover (with the right assurances from your LMC)?

You will find most places wont cover you after a certain point. But remember, this is for pregnancy related issues, not general cover. I.e. if you go into early labour, you wont be covered. But, if you fall over and break your arm, you should be covered. Albeit, I would also check with the insurance company before purchasing anyways just to get clarification.
There is another travel insurance topic somewhere, I'll try and find it and bump it up for you.

ASB insures up to 29 weeks including the 29th week. I went overseas at 28 weeks with my last pregnancy and was definately covered. I took all my midwife notes with me and got a letter from her saying that I was fit and healthy enough to fly just incase the airline questioned me.
