If you hold your hands above head the umbilical cord will choke baby.

If little girls don't like you your having a girl.

Baby's heartbeat low is boy, fast is girl.
Some still debate this, but I don't believe it.
My coworker said his doctor said their baby's heartbeat was 190 and probably a girl he is having a boy.

If you don't wear a safety pin when there's an eclipse your baby will be deformed or problems.

You should wear socks and keep warm after having baby, I forgot why, but when I had my son my mom and aunts said I had to.
