When can I take maternity leave? The earliest that you can start your maternity leave is 11 weeks before your expected week of childbirth, which is when you are about 29 weeks pregnant. To ensure that you get all your rights, you should use the due date given on the MAT B1 pregnancy certificate that your midwife or GP will give you.
To claim your right to maternity leave, you must tell your employer about your pregnancy no later than 15 weeks before your baby is due. You can work this out by finding the Sunday before your baby is due, and then counting back 15 weeks. You should tell your employer: Your employer may want you to put this in writing.our employer will confirm the dates of your statutory maternity leave within 28 days. You can change the date you start your maternity leave, as long as you give 28 days' notice. You can start maternity leave any time from 11 weeks before the beginning of the week your baby's due.
