Explanation:

The text mentions that the author was awaiting her niece's birth with "feverish anticipation" and that she was the "sole woman child in a family of men, who all her life had dreamed of [another girl]". This supports option A. There is no indication in the text that the author is worried about the baby being underweight (so B is incorrect).
