The waiting period, or elimination period should be documented in your policy - if you have an individual policy. If you are asking about state short term disability, it is best to check the department of labor website for your state.

Short term disability for maternity leave?

Probably not. Most long term disability policies have an elimination period of 3 months or more. You will be considered disabled 8 weeks for a c-section delivery - well short of the elimination period. Check your policy for the exact elimination period. If something happens during your pregnancy and/or delivery that causes a lengthy disability, then you may be paid a benefit. Most women of child bearing age find short term disability to be a better overall fit. It offers an elimination period as short as one week - meaning your maternity leave will be a covered benefit.

Who pays disability income?

Disability income can be paid by a private insurance company that is licensed and authorized to issue disability income policies in the state of policy issuance. The policy can provide short-term or long-term benefits, depending upon its terms. It is designed to replace income lost due to a disabling sickness or accident specified in the policy. Often, short-term disability insurance is furnished as a benefit of employment by employers for eligible employees. In those cases, the employer may either have purchased a group short-term disability policy, or self-insure for the payment of short-term disability benefits. In general, if one purchases private disability coverage and him/herself pays the premiums for it, the benefits that are paid are not taxable.

How long is maternity leave in Texas?

There is no paid maternity leave or mandated short term disability in Texas. Your best bet is to apply for short term disability preconception. Short term disability will pay a benefit when you deliver, giving you a paid maternity leave. Texas doesnt require your employer to pay you but if you are approved for FMLA then if your job aggrees to pay you for either 6 to 8 weeks that is fine. Just talk to your employer and see what they can do for you. My employer gives you paid maternity leave under FMLA if you have been there for a year. Which I have not and it sucks so im trying to get TANF.
