As far as I'm aware the bulk of the maternity costs (salary) are met by the employer, i.e you. However there is a provision for state maternity pay which works out at just over �400 per month. Like everything else, conditions apply.

You may be entitled to Maternity Allowance rather than SMP - see here for details
