A typical case
Tegan was hired 15 weeks before her due date. She is eligible to begin her pregnancy leave at any time after being hired, because there are at least 13 weeks between the date she was hired and her due date.
When an employee is off sick
Fatima was hired 15 weeks before her due date. Soon after starting her new job, she was off sick for five weeks. Fatima is eligible for pregnancy leave because there are at least 13 weeks between the date she was hired and her due date. The fact that she didn't actually work 13 weeks is irrelevant.
