If you give birth within 4 months from date of retrenchment, you should be able to get the maternity allowance provided you are covered by the Employment Act.

Thanks for your feedback. How to find out whether I'm covered by the employment act?

If your salary is over RM1500, you are not covered. But you can try to negotiate with your employer for more compensation in view of your impending confinement.
