That's really interesting Vampy. Thank you for mentioning that. I'm going to advise my friend of this because she and her husband would like to have children and as you know, the process of adopting a child can be very difficult especially if one or both parents have a disability. (My friend is congenitally totally blind and her husband is sighted.)

Sometimes, the woman may be forced to bed rest for her 2nd or 3rd trimester if she's not strong enough to handle a full pregnancy.

I have another friend who is 4'11". She had back surgery when she was in high school. Her doctor told her that if she ever got pregnant, she would likely be forced to bed rest during most of her pregnancy due to the strain on her back.

Hmmm. That's definitely something for my friend to consider. I'll have to ask if she has spoken to her OB/GYN about this further. If she needs that much bed rest, it could be problematic because her husband works during the day and she doesn't have anyone else besides her mother who could come in and check on her.
