怀孕期间自雇生意结束后可以申请Maternity Leave Pay吗?

大家好,我从2014年6月-2016年8月31日是Self-employed(Sole Trader),每年Tax Return,现在怀孕22周+,请问我这种情况能申请Maternity Leave Pay吗?我在gov.uk官网上找了一圈也还是云里雾里的,希望懂这些的朋友们给个回复,万分感谢!

As a self-employed woman, you’re not entitled to Statutory Maternity Pay.
You can apply Maternity Allowance.

自己申请Maternity Allowance,产检时跟midwife要一张MAT B1 form
