Frequently Asked Maternity Questions
Do I have to add a second member prior to conception in order to share my maternity need?
You must add a second person to your membership, or sign up for Maternity Care Sharing as a One-Person membership, agreeing to pay the equivalent of a Two-Person share amount at least 300 days before the estimated due date.
Can I add my unborn child as the second family member?
No. Although we consider the unborn child a part of the family, we need a date of birth in order to add someone to the membership.
What if I decide not to add a second family member?
Members who do not add a second family member or sign up for Maternity Care Sharing will not be able to have their maternity needs shared. However, maternity expenses may be submitted as a Special Prayer Need.
What if my estimated due date is less than 300 days from start of membership?
When the estimated due date is less than 300 days from a qualifying membership (Two-Person membership or the equivalent), maternity needs are not shareable. However, maternity expenses may be submitted as a Special Prayer Need.
