Question

Is there any duas surahs etc specific to read in the last few months of pregnancy? Is there any dua one should recite on seeing their child the first time after birth?

Answer

You may recite durood in abundance and Surah Yaseen.

We have not seen anything.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
