H1 goin on maternity leave

[alpmathur]

Hi! I am currently on h4 and have applied for h1. I would receive my H1 in october. I am 5 months pregnant now and plan to go on maternity leave.
1) Would goin on maternity leave without pay, immediately after getting h1, make me out of status?
2) If i work for 2 months and then go for maternity leave without pay after having the baby, would I become out of status in that case too?
3) Are there any rules pertaining to maternity or sick leave for H1 employees?
Thanks in advance
