CONCEPTTTION AND CHILDBIRTH
Mother and Child
by Isabelo M. Quiles, 1992
1. Pregnancy
If a pregnant woman's abdomen is pointed, her baby will be a boy; if it is round, the baby will be a girl.
Give an expectant mother anything she craves for, or she will have a miscarriage.
If a pregnant woman wants to avoid the unpleasant symptoms of pregnancy, she should step over her husband while he is sleeping and all of her symptoms will be transferred to him.
If a pregnant woman eats a fruit from a tree, all the remaining fruits will remain sour.
A pregnant woman who eats "twin" bananas will give birth to twins. To prevent this, she must split the twin bananas behind her back.
A pregnant woman shouldn't have her picture taken, or her child will die at birth.
Visitors who do not enter the house but linger at the door instead will cause a pregnant woman a difficult delivery.
2. Delivery
When a woman is about to give birth, place a lighted candle under her bed so that any witches passing by may be seen.
After the baby is delivered, the umbilical cord must be rubbed on the newborn's cheek to produce dimples.
When a baby lies on her stomach for the first time, place a pencil, paper, and a book under her so that she will be intelligent.
