How Do I Request to Work While on Maternity Leave?

Dear Experts, How do I request a part time work from home schedule in lieu of full maternity leave? (e.g. one month maternity leave, and two months of part-time work-from-home, for 3 months total?) I meet federal, state and company policy for maternity leave and work can be done remotely. But how can I show it is beneficial for us both?
