If it is government hospital, I don't think they will provide u HL when u are ok in all test, and if private, I think they have a limit of HL given because they are private clinic, can try in private hospital. Me and My friend talk about this before also, nobody get the HL even we requested especially before give birth.
But u can actually choose to start your maternity leave earlier before give birth, this is the only solutions if you want to rest early. U can try your luck.
