Knowing that you are pregnant could be very good news to you and at the same time it could be a worry for some families especially where your income is an important way to support the family. But now you have the disability insurance for maternity scheme that helps you to compensate for all the income you lost out while being away on maternity leave. Maternity leave or family medical leave can be taken advantage of if it is available when you are starting a family. You can avail as much as 6 weeks of leave under this category though you will be not paid for this length of time you are away from your office. Be aware that you must apply for a policy before you become pregnant. Most insurers consider pregnancy as a pre existing condition if you are pregnent at the time of applying for the policy. By planning ahead before you go for expansion of the family and buying short-term disability insurance scheme, you can make up for such loss of income without any worries at all.
