Could I have a private post please 😊

I’m due to go on maternity leave on the 2nd January and will be receiving smp for 39 weeks at a rate of £105 per week.
I have a little boy at the moment and Work 16 hours a week and take home £120 a week.
As it stands I get £140 a week housing benefit towards my rent which must be correct because it was recently re calculated. But if I go on the entitled to website (which I know is just an estimate) it says I will only be getting £65 a week housing benefit? With the only difference being I’d be in maternity leave and my weekly earnings would go from £120 a week to £105 a week.
Could this be right could a (roughly) £60 a month decrease in earrings mean a deduction of (roughly) £300 a month housing benefit?
Obviously because the change over hasn’t happened yet, I can’t ring up and get any information on this so any help or information would be appreciated 😊
