Culture / Old Wives Tales About Pregnancy by geefasee: 4:50pm On Aug 25, 2013
For most women pregnancy is a
time of contentment and of
indulging oneself. Whether a
little more ice cream every
night or an along awaited trip
before this new little person comes along. Some women even
enjoy watching their bodies
change and most often that
feeling of excitement grows
while watching your baby bump
get bigger…and let’s not forget the first time you feel
your little occupant move…that
is pure joy. So while all these
changes are going on it still
takes awhile to find out the
sex of the baby and since everyone has a 50/50 chance of
being right when they guess,
why not have some more fun
with it and indulge yourself in
some of those old wives tales
that claim to be able to predict what your baby may be or if it
will have a full head of hair and
so on…so let’s begin…the top
25 old wives tales about
pregnancy. 1. The Curse of the Craving- If
anyone denies a pregnant
woman of her craving that
person will get a sty in their
eye. (Wicked, wish I would have
known this one!) 2. Heartburn- we have all heard
this one, if you have a lot of
heartburn when pregnant this
means your baby is going to
have a nice head of hair when
it is born. ( Now this one I have experienced and happen to
believe it) 3. The Ugly Baby- this is crazy,
if a pregnant woman sees
something ugly during
pregnancy then she will have an
ugly baby. ( I saw plenty of ugly
and my kids are beautiful!) 4. Baby’s Heart Rate- if it is
above 140 bpm then it is
supposed to be a girl, below
140 bpm then it is supposed to
be a boy. ( If that was the
case then my girl should have been a boy) 5. No Baths- this old wives tale
says pregnant women should
not take baths because the
bath water may seep into the
baby bringing bacteria. (Total
bull!) 6. Full Moon- this one I about
half believe, it is said that the
full moon will make you go into
labor and deliver.
7.The Ring Test- we have all
heard of this one, you take
your wedding band and dangle
it from a string over your belly
and if it swings in a circle it is a
boy back and forth it is a girl. (Again so wrong, it did the
opposite for both my kids) 8. Where’s Your Belly- this one
is correct for me on both
counts, I carried high with a
round belly with my daughter
and low with a smaller belly
with my son. 9. Evens and Odds- If you take
the age of the mother and the
year of conception and add
them together, if you get an
odd number, it’s a boy, even
it’s a girl. (Yes for both of mine on that one, took me a
bit to think back that far
though!) 10. The Blemish Test- If you get
acne during pregnancy it is
thought you are having a girl
as you are getting all those
extra girl hormones. (None for
me thanks!) 11. What You Crave- if you
crave a lot of sweets then it is
a girl, a craving for salty items
signifies a boy. (What does kfc
mashed potatoes signify?) 12. Garlic Test- if you eat garlic
during pregnancy and it seeps
out your pores, your having a
boy if it doesn’t then it’s a
girl. (Never tried this one,
someone let me know!) 13. Crazy Eye- pull down the
skin under the left eye and if in
the white part of the eye you
can see either a “V” or what
looks like branches it’s a girl! 14. Crazy Legs- if your legs
stay smooth and in shape your
having a girl, if they get big
and cottage cheesy then it’s a
boy. ( In this case I should have
had 2 boys then! Ha!) 15. Happy or Moody?- If you
are very moody during your
pregnancy it is said it is the
extra girl hormones, if you are
happy and content then there
is a little penis inside there. (Sorry I was laughing too hard
about this one to try to think
about it) 16. The Bread Indicator- If you prefer the ends of the bread
your having a boy, the middle
of the bread your having a girl.
(I don’t eat a lot of bread so
not sure about this one) 17. Graceful Clutz- If you are
clutzy your entire pregnancy
then it’s a boy, if you are all
pose and grace it’s a girl. 18. Handy Dandy Test- ask a
pregnant woman to show you
her hands if she shows them
palms up it’s a girl, palms down
a boy. (This one interest me,
someone try it and let me know) 19. The Fat Daddy Test- If the
new daddy loses weight it is a
boy, but if he gains it, it is a
girl. (If this was the case then I
would have had 2 girls) 20. The Dreaded Morning
Sickness- if all is smooth and
content then it’s a boy, if you
are sick everyday it’s a girl.
(True for me!) 21. How’s Your Feet?- cold
feet during pregnancy is a sign
of a boy, if your feet stay the
same it’s a girl. (Mine stayed
the same for both) 22. Hairy Legs?- if the hair on
your legs slows its growing time
then you are having a girl, if it
speeds up it’s a boy. (Who
sees there legs when they are
pregnant?) 23. Baby Names- if you are
very specific about a certain
name then it ups the possibility
that the sex of the baby will
be what you wish. (Not true for
me at all, I was thinking up boys names up until 2 weeks
before my daughter was born) 24. The Pee Test- if your pee is
bright yellow then chances are
it is a boy, if it is dull or pale it
is a girl. ( I cannot remember
what it was that long ago, it
could have been green for all I remember) Last but not least….25. The
Booby Test- if your nipple area
has gotten darker then it is a
boy, if it stays the same it is a
girl. I hope you enjoyed reading this
list as much

Akiika: Must you become a pastor, evangelist, 'wooli' or whatever to become a gospel singer? So Tope too don become pastor! eh eh!
I happen to grow up in the same neighborhood as this lady "Babayanju street, Mafoluku oshodi"...i'll save you the rest of the gist, cuz i believe people do really change for good.
All na to make ends meet!...my issue is with the self acclaimed titles (pastor, evangelist e.t.c)....they can be creative in some other ways.
maybe na honorary title
