Remember, your obgyn works for you, it's not the other way around :)

Your obgyn will usually back you up on taking maternity leave, their job is to ensure the health and well being you and your child if you feel you need to cut down or even stop working until after your leave. Don't be scared, say it when you go back and they ask you how your doing...
