Ok I'm 35 weeks pregnant going on 36 soon...I spoke with my doctor and she told me I can apply for disability and she explained to me that at 37 weeks I can apply and I have to get a letter from the company I work for and then she'll sign it. But I'm currently working part- time, how much will I get? For how long and how long will it take to aprove? How does disability work??
