Old Wives tales...

What are some that you have heard that you are just shocked at or have to LOL at??


One for me would be if you are craving something and dont eat it, the next place you scratch the baby will have a birthmark in that exact spot when he/she is bornChat Icon

An old friend of mine who's mom is from ecuador once told me that if the baby was constipated I should put a piece of onion in his butt and that would make him go.

Soooo not happening!

I told my friend and her husband to be careful because when they have their kid they are going to come home to a baby with veggies up his azz.

I was told not to look at anything ugly (horror movies are my favorite!) because the babies would be ugly.

I was also told not to have anyone toss anything at me because if I accidently got hit with the item, the baby would have a birthmark on that spot on thier body.
