Income support

Hi everyone,I am currently 30 weeks pregnant and just received my first income support payment.
I've been told this goes up once baby is here.
What I am wondering is if I need to tell them once my baby is here or if it will just go up automatically?

Thanks!:)

Income support won't go up as that is what you are meant to live off. Once your baby is born then you apply for child tax credits and child benefit. So the income support I for you and the child tax credits and child benefit for your child.
