Student - Maternity benefit/tax credits?

Anyone have any ideas what I can claim?
I am a full time, unemployed student (access course) and haven't worked since April 2013 (not through lack of trying though!). My Due date is at the end of September so no Uni for me this year as I have had to defer.
I can't find any form of financial support for us that is available to us in our current situation. DH earns over £47,000 which leaves us even more limited as to what financial help is available.

You'd only be entitled to child benefit. Your DH earns too much for you to claim income based benfits.eSealed pot challenge #232. Gold stars from Sue-UU - :staradmin :staradmin £75.29 banked
