Pregnancy and childbirth have always been associated with a lot of will and superstitions.Most of them come from the deep past, and often completely meaningless.But certainly not go out of their popularity to this day.
Boy or girl?
If pregnant belly covered with fluff (hairs), so there will be a boy.Superstition little justified in practice.Hairs on the abdomen of a pregnant - a phenomenon associated only with the number of male hormones in the body of the future mother.And look around, how many women give birth with the sign of the girls.
If a pregnant belly sharp - it is a boy, and if it is high and wide - will give birth to a girl, forks - twins.In fact, a high location stomach may indicate that a woman's first pregnancy and the expectant mother is in good physical shape.Muscles that support the uterus become weaker with each pregnancy, thereby lowering the abdomen.If the abdomen protrudes, possibly in a pregnant body is not too wide, so the child simply have nowhere to go.Wide belly - a sign that the fruit is located sideways.
If the expectant mother prettier every day, so the addition of the family will be a boy.But the girl, as you know, my mother picks up the beauty.The face becomes puffy, increasing the cheekbones, nose, appear dark spots.But the "loss of beauty" in pregnant women - is also the physiology and it is very individual.
pregnant with a clean and give birth to a boy, ruddy face, and with a face stained - a girl, thin and skinny pregnant person also indicates the birth of a boy, and a full and bloated - girls.The heart began to beat fast - forward girl slowly - a boy.Baby-girl (in the study) really are born with more frequently than boys heartbeat.But this only applies to births.During pregnancy, heart rhythms do not differ by gender.
Mystery name
Invent the future name of the baby, of course, is in advance.That's just to share this secret with anyone yet not worth it.The custom of hiding the selected name also comes from the distant past, from the fear of evil spirits.They could overhear the name of the child and bring harm.It is even considered that the name can not be opened up to the christening until the baby appears Guardian Angel.Until the seventeenth century in Russia there was a custom to give a newborn several options names.And today, the West remained the custom.There is a belief that because it will be possible to avoid the evil eye.
double surprise
number of children that appear in the family for some generations, depends on how many eggs fertilized simultaneously (in the case of fertilization of multiple eggs develop fraternal twins), or how to share the fertilized egg (in the case of formation of twins from one eggfertilized by one sperm, produced identical twins).The possibility of birth of twins in the family also inherited.
But there is still a superstition that a pregnant woman can not eat the fruit-dvoychatki and eggs with two yolks: twins born.After conception nutrition of pregnant does not affect how many children she will bear.But the fact that the eggs are the products-allergens, can really make you wonder.
