Meetingwith HR to discuss maternity - any questions I should ask?

I'm meeting with HR for the first time since advising work I'm pregnant.

Is there any questions in particular I should ask?

I'm going to ask for a payment schedule, as I know colleagues who have had issues with correct payments... and also by what date they need official notification... but what am I missing?

Thanks!

Kanga, I work for a large company who are really family friendly and have policies for maternity set out very clearly, as far as I remember they gave me information on the following:
Maternity pay (obviously)
Policy on antenatal appts in work time
How early I could start mat leave
What would happen in the event of miscarriage or early delivery with regard to sickness/mat pay
How and when to inform them of my chosen date to start mat leave
What happened to my holiday during mat leave
What to do if I was unwell/decided to start mat leave early.
Health and safety in the workplace during pregnancy
Returning to work, flexible working etc
I'm sure there was more as they gave me a booklet that was about 20-30 pages long that answered all my questions, but you get the gist.
