The only option which seems a bit dialectish in this excerpt is belonged to child-bed.
A dialect represents the speech of a particular location in one country, speech which is not usually completely grammatically correct. The other options belong in the regular English, whereas belonged to child-bed is reserved for a particular area which makes it a dialect.

The correct answer is belonged to child-bed.

Explanation: Child-bed refers to the condition of a woman who is giving birth to a child, and is a dialect because it is a different version of the same words/language - "child-bed" replaces the words "child birth".
