Pregnancy, unemployment, and benefits

So I graduated from University last July, and went on to do a Masters. I became pregnant with our first and had to withdraw from the course, and I've since been unemployed. I live with my husband and he supports us financially, (we rent privately). I've been trying to figure out what I'm entitled to, and I've applied for Universal Credit and got an appointment but idk if i'm even eligible. I don't intend to look for a job as I'm 26 weeks pregnant so it'd be pointless searching now. Any advice?

How much does your husband earn?

What advice are you wanting exactly? Use turn2us.org and put it in all your info. It'll tell you whether you're entitled to anything or not. You'll have to prove to UC that you're actually pregnant, and once you get to 28 weeks you'll be signed off looking for work. That's if you're entitled to anything
