Pregnant and made redundant

Options
Hi.
I started a new job n in May and I was told about a month ago that I will be made redundant. I wanted to ask some questions

If I'm made redundant before the 5 monthe of pregnancy am I entitled to statutory pay?
What if my reduncanny notice period means I will still be working my notice during the 5th month? (15 weeks b4 due date)
If I get a new job before the birth of my child can I claim statutory pay from my old (current) employer?


Thanks all.

    You won't be entitled to may pay if your notice finishes before the timeframe but you will be entitled to maternity allowance. This is claimed like a benefit and it's a percentage of your salary or a set amount of £139.58 whichever is the smaller.
    Just a single mum, working full time, bit of a nutcase, but mostly sensible, wanting to be Mortgage free by 2035 or less!
