We Made It!!
29 Jan
Last March, I was wanting another baby really badly and trying desperately to convince Nathan. On our Anniversary, he agreed that we could sign up for Aflac that month and then when the baby was born, he would get to use the extra money for a new computer. I thought that sounded fine, and the next week I was off to the Aflac office.
To my surprise, we got pregnant right off the bat in late April/early May and this presented a bit of a problem…Aflac has a “10 month” clause for pregnancy. If the baby is born less than 10 months after you sign up, they don’t pay. Well, my Aflac date was January 28th, and my due date was February 5th. We were cutting it close! I decided to keep Aflac and risk it.
So…today being January 29th…I am thrilled to know that we will be getting back over $3000 when we have this baby!! Yay!!!
Unfortunately, Nathan probably won’t be getting his computer. His company decided to switch insurance companies in the middle of the pregnancy, forcing us to pay two $1000 deductibles, and another 20% on top of that (we no longer have 100% after deductible coverage). Thanks a lot, OrangeSoda!
So hopefully we come out even.
Awesome!! I know that feeling; my Aflac date was 10 days before my due date, but I was confident I’d make it. Then ON my Aflac date my doctor sent me to the hospital for toxemia, and I was panicking! It turned out to be a false alarm, so I made it – whew!
Yay!!!! Ive been thinking happy thoughts for you. Now I will be thinking happy laboring thoughts. Keep us posted.
