Actually I don't know almost anything about it.<br />It's interesting that there aro so many supersticion surrounding the pregnancy stage. I was particularly surprised by the wedding ban because of the clash of joy, funny thing.<br />For the rest, I think every culture has some similar uses, especially regarding the diet.<br />Have a great weekend, Kim!<br />xo IreneIrenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05768386916902381178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8969677052737801120.post-46847329427052934062013-10-18T01:44:44.327-05:002013-10-18T01:44:44.327-05:00Thank you for sharing this, it was so interesting ...Thank you for sharing this, it was so interesting to read!

I am not a superstitious at all but I love to learn of others, it makes me curious to their reasoning. As for #6 I think that's falls for all women A lot of women wait until the first 3 months or 1st trimester before letting anyone know they are pregnant.
