Back then, women would still have to work until they were literally giving birth, I believe. You would not expect that with how women act, now, and how much they complain about being pregnant but women can work while pregnant. during medieval times, the men were often off fighting or hunting so women, even while pregnant, had to take care of children, tend to plants, sew, and all sorts of things.
I recommend doing some extra research but I believe this is right.
New slaves from Africa were imported in Southern plantations.
