Thank you for posting this. I had pretty much given up on insuring a potential preemie, but Blue Cross will cover her if she's born early. Kimberly - Blue Cross has an Ontario section and they have the same policy. http://www.bluecross.ca/en/index.html Yipee! You are my hero! Thank you for posting this.

They are ETFS travel & healthcare solution . If interested, be sure to call as they require your expected date of birth (there's no option to add this when applying online) 1-800-680-3837. The pregnancy exclusion listed in their policy is as follows: 9. Treatment or hospitalization of mother or child(ren) as a result of pregnancy, miscarriage, childbirth or complications of any of these conditions occurring in the 9 weeks before and/or after the expected delivery date. BTW, I called TIC and they do not cover the unborn child unless the child is born and at least 15 days old.

I plan to return to Canada well before my 8th month. I am having a lot of trouble finding any insurance companies that would insure me in case of an emergency with me or baby. I looked up Pacific Blue Cross, but unfortunately, it is only available for BC or Yukon residents. I am from Ontario. Does anyone have any suggestions of who/where I could turn to?

Thought it wasn't possible until my wife found this! Thanks for posting this, I’ve been going crazy trying to find an insurance policy that will cover a child born while on travelling.
