You can at the most claim maintenance from your husband if your expenses are going out of your hands despite being earning member. Your husband is liable to maintain you and his/ your child for all reasonable expenses incurred for bringing up the family.. If you are a earning member still he has to shell money out of his own pocket and he can't deny it..
For that you need to built a case for maintenance U/S. 125 CR.P.C or other various civil laws available..
