How negotiable is severance during massive layoffs? I am 6 months along in pregnancy.

I work for a very multi-billion dollar international organization. We are going through a 50% cut in my division and although I have an excellent performance record I may be laid off. Is there any history of an organization like mine altering (extending) the severance package for someone in my shoes. My thought process is that they should extend my payout because I can't go out and interview for a new job for at least 3-4 months because I am visibly pregnant. (Or I should say I could interview but nobody would hire me.) Do I have any power at all when this decision comes down or is it a take it or leave it situation?
