Membership and maternity leave.

Before i ring NCMA i wanted to know anyone else's experience. My NCMA membership and insurance is due for renewal 24th Sept, i go on maternity the week after. It's going to cost £75 ish to renew. What i want to know is will NCMA freeze my membership and insurance until i return from maternity in July 2011 as otherwise i'll be paying for 9mth which won't be used.

im sorry im not sure as mine ran out the week before i finished to but i only had my niece and nephew the week i finished so i did renew it as we were at their house most of the time x
