how much weight does a baby gain in the last weeks of pregnancy?
Q. I am 35 weeks and 2 days and the doctor estimated that my baby weighed somewhere around 4 pounds and 13 ounces. She said that he is small for his gestational age. I was wondering how much weight do baby's usually gain in the last weeks of pregnancy (35-40 weeks) ??

A. No matter his weight he will be fine. My daughter was born at 38 weeks and was only 6lbs, she has had no problems. She is still very small but the doctors are not concerned because she has hit every milestone, either on time or early. To answer your question they can gain about an oz a day in the last month. So stop fretting your little guy would be fine. Good luck!

Do my wife needs bed rest in last week of pregnancy?
Q. We have an asian tradition to arrange for a housemaid/female supporter etc during last week of pregnancy ( especially in 1st pregnancy) till 40 days after giving birth. The female take complete bed rent during this time.
Is there any medical logic behind it. Does a female really need to take bed rest after delivery or she can continue the routine work ? I am really confused as now i am living away from native country and maids etc are quite expensive here.
Sharing your personal experience will also be highly appreciated. Thanks

A. No need. My wife and I know lots of other that are doing things up until the deliver. No need unless the doctor says bed rest.
