After I had my four Pregnancy here in my husbands province I've learned a lot of weird beliefs. And as they go on telling me to just follow the simple instructions I agree on to obey the rules. And I've learned theres nothing that I would loose if I believe them
I want to express my gratitude to my beloved sponsors Thank you so much
Superstitious Beliefs
A pregnant woman cravings will affect the appearance of the baby
My fourth pregnancy I'm craving for dark food colors such as soy souce, chocolate drink Milo and for dish I Loved dinuguan. And the old ones said that my baby will become dark if I continue eating this foods. But I can't help my cravings I'm happy when I got to eat this kind of foods. And luckily my baby isn't dark as the foods that I ate she's color was morena like me and her father.
Avoid wearing necklace or putting towels around the neck
If you read my articles about my pregnancy entitled https://read.cash/@UsagiGallardo215/i-went-through-cs-section-with-tubal-ligationpart-1-89580d2d I had an operation last three years ago and the reason why is; my baby has an nuchal cord coil or her umbilical cord is wrapping around her neck. That may cause her to breathe difficulty

So the ob-gyn advised me to take the cesarean section and at the same time had my ligation. But I remember I didn't wear necklace when I was pregnant, because I was also said this might happen.
Pregnant woman should avoid attending funeral
I don't know the reason why my husband and my In-laws didn't allow me to come in late of their relatives. But maybe because I'm carrying a child on my womb and going to funeral is not good to see.
If the pregnant woman has dark areas in her body her baby will become a boy
Well I will possibly believe in this kind of situations because I've seen and witness different changes of my friends physical appearance. Such as her underarm, neck or even some parts of the face is getting darker. And this i think can't be avoided because even toiner is not recommend to use. So we can probably stay at the house to protect our skin from heat.
It is a bad luck when standing or staying at the door.
Old one's thought me that if insist staying at our door I will have a hard time delivering my baby. Or my labor will become more painful, so whenever someone is staying at our door we remind them that we have a pregnant woman at our house. And people here are aware about the superstitious Beliefs so it's not a hard time convincing them.
Do not put nail polish or treating hair with chemicals
After having my four Pregnancy I wasn't approved to put any of these because they told me the hard chemicals will harm me and my baby so I agree with them. And after I gave birth I experienced not to take a bath for 7-10 days. So I conclude that it's not a good thing if I just follow my own rules. It's really good that there's someone that will tell us the right thing to do. And i see nothing wrong in believing this stuff.
Thank you so much for your wonderful time and with all due respect I hope you like my today's blog
Love, UsagiGallardo15 🌙

Ay ang dami palang beliefs sissy. Pero Wala namang scientific basis yung mga yan pero wala ding masama kong susundin. I'm glad You're okay na sis pati yung anak mo na napuluputan ng umbilical cord.
