if your doctor believes there are complications of your pregnancy that make it unviable for your to work, they can provide a certificate
however, you may have to provide a letter from your employer stating that, had you not been ill, you would have continued your employment up until 8 weeks before EDD (so it may not be possible)
ETA - i checked today on the 8 weeks thing - and the four colleagues i checked with all agreed on not being able to finish up more than 8 weeks before EDD (some people will be able to leave early if they have paid leave that takes them further towards their edd kwim?
