What’s It Mean When A Baby Bends Over And Looks Through His/Her Legs

A Nigerian woman recently shared a picture on Facebook of her second child bending over and looking via his legs, which according to her meant another baby is on the way for her.

She immediately rubbished such thought and belief, simply cos she's not ready to have another child soon, since she only had her second child just last year

But is it true that when a child does that, his or her mother should be expecting another baby soon?

Read what some experts are saying about it below

Does It Mean Another Baby Is On The Way?

It’s said that if you see your baby bends over and looks through their legs, it is a sign that another one will be on the way soon

While some parents blow this off as a superstition, others swear that they took a pregnancy test after seeing their baby bending over and discovered that they were pregnant.

Like with most pregnancy superstitions, there isn’t usually much science to back them up. If common sense tells you it’s probably not true, then that’s usually a good bet that it’s false. You may or may not have heard about the old wives tale that says if a baby bends forward and looks through their legs (or does the downward facing dog, for you yoga aficionados), they’re predicting a pregnancy or they are looking for or wanting another sibling.

Most experts say babies look through their legs to work on their depth perception and to experience a different “upside-down” view of the world.

So my recommendation would be to not put too much stock into the old wives’ tale. You never know what your future might hold, but in most cases, babies are looking to expand their world, not expand their family.

the kids just enjoying themselves

No correlation ooo

fallacious superstition.

The Baby is showing the attribute and preparing for the gymnastics event of the Olympics.

Train the baby along that line, who knows the baby may end up becoming a gymnastic medal winner

It is all superstition.

Like when they say if you cross over someone lying down they'll not grow tall

If you pass in-between two people you've switched their glories.

If you laugh at a dwarf you'd become one.

If you whistle at night you're inviting snake.

It's evil to sweep at night

If you look in-between your legs in the market you'd see ghosts.

Only dead people write their name with red ink.

Only ghosts walk backwards.

Add more if you can.

The baby is just inspecting his blockos nothing more.

Lol.....
D baby is looking at the new baby coming(pregnancy)

For real oo

The baby is communicating with another dimension

They are just playfully viewing the world upside down.

It means, another Baby is coming so, get prepared.
