    The life insurance industry seems to have no underwriting standard for pregnant women. But a rule of thumb is that most will underwrite a woman during the first two trimesters of pregnancy. General underwriting concerns look for gestational diabetes and high blood pressure, which can generate a rating or postponement.

    Yes, if your health is excellent, you can get the best health rating even into the second trimester. There are No Exam policies that are reasonably priced, for which it does not matter if you are pregnant. You can get that quickly, then apply for a medically underwritten policy after your baby is born. You can even add a child rider for your baby, if you wish, that will ensure he or she is able to get reasonably priced life insurance for the rest of his or her life.

    Most insurance underwriters will not consider pregnancy as an underwriting issue so long as the insured does not have other health issues that require medication. Under normal circumstances a healthy pregnant woman should not have any difficulty getting health insurance. If other health issues arise then they may rated higher.
