Help on entitlements

[Eilishnbean]

I'm quite confused on what I will be entitled to when I have the baby. I wasn't working when I first got pregnant, I am now 20weeks and have been working as a temp 2days a week for the past month or so...I know I won't be entitled too SMP but will I be entitled to MA? My OH works as a temp too..hoping he will have a full time job before baby arrives. What else will I get child benefit. Please help...I'm so confused the website is full of jargon! xx

Ul b entitled to ma aslong as u've worked for 26 weeks in the 66 weeks b4 ur due date. Make sure u save ur wage slips cos ul need to provide 15 weeks worth (ideally the highest paid weeks) so they can calculate ur entitlement. 124.88 (roughly) a week or 90% of ur wage (whichever is LEAST) for 39 weeks payable from 29 weeks at the earliest x
