Abstract: On analysis of the collected data, a highly statistical significant difference has been noted between the birth weights of children born to mothers engaged in hard work during pregnancy in comparison to those children whose mothers engaged in moderate or light work. Like wise, the babies born to mothers who discontinued work during 3rd trimester were heavier in compartsion to their counter parts babies whose mothers continued work.
