Considering that anywhere from 60-80% of all pregnancies spontaneously abort, often without the knowledge of the woman, why not take advantage of this?

Dear Mr. Insurance Company:
I had sex with my husband on March 17, 2012, then I had an unusually heavy flow, with cramps, at the end of the month. I KNOW I was preggers, because I could sense that god had gifted me with a wonderful little daughter. It was more than a Mother's intuition.
Therefore, I demand payment of our policy limits of $1,000,000 of our term life policy which covers all members of my family.

Proof of our legal, unprotected sex act is available upon demand, on DVD, VHS and Beta. Please enclose a check for 29.99 for shipping and handling fees.

With tears and trepidation,

A regretful almost mommy.
