 OP, I heard that after giving birth, Korean mothers aren't allowed to do anything for at least 21 days to recover and should only eat warm foods/drinks even when the temperature is high. They are also expected to eat gallons of seaweed soup which is supposed to aid in post-delivery recovery.1 Like |

[quote author=QAPHAYNE]3) SPITTING ON THE BABY: The Wolof people of Mauritania and surrounding countries believe that human saliva can retain words, so they spit on newborns to add blessings that stick. When a baby is born, women spit on its face, men spit in its ear, and then, for good measure, they rub saliva all over its head. The Igbo tribe in Nigeria goes a step further. When a baby is born, it goes to the family’s ancestral house. There, a relative who is a good orator chews some alligator pepper, spits it on a finger, and puts it in the baby’s mouth. This supposedly makes the child grow up to be just as good an orator as the donor of the spit. HUGE LIE!!! 1 Like |

QAPHAYNE: . Its quite extinct now. But in those days in some part of ibo land its seen as a sign of feminine strength Are u negatively obsessed with the igbos? Abeg dis is a very big lie! The Igbos have always been known to take special care of their wives since time immemorial, especially the pregnant ones. And dis they do far better than any other tribe you can think of. |

To add to that. The Hausa/fulani and other tribes in the north frown at women screaming and crying during childbirth. So most women from the north predominantly muslims do not shout,scream or cry when in labor 1 Like |
