I have been cut down to 12 hours a week because my boss found out i was pregnant,. Ever since she found out I was pregnant she pretty much cut me down to less than 30 hours a week.

I guess 'unemployment' is a scenario that you'd face only when you get laid-off. But under the said circumstances, you could apply for short-term disability benefits. Check it out on your state website.

Short Term Disability insurance helps you to earn even while you're on a maternity leave. You'd enjoy more time with the baby. It supports your vaginal delivery and safeguards you from pregnancy related complications.

Some states will allow you to collect Unemployment if your hours are reduced but these laws are state specific. You need to contact your local UE office and inquire. I know FL allows this.
