Wednesday, March 16, 2005 Pregnancy Myths Following the trend of pregnancy Old Wives Tales, there are also pregnancy myths that remind me of the game, "Telephone." You tell a person something and as it is passed from person to person, it turns into something completely different than how it started. Here are some popular pregnancy myths. Some of which you have read about already on this blog. The Spicy Food Fraud Spicy food will bring on labor. "For the most part, pregnant women can eat just about anything, but there are certain foods that we tell them to look out for, or to try and avoid," says Dr. Stone. Those include very soft cheeses, unpasteurized cheeses and raw-milk cheese. Though rare, they may contain a bacteria called lysteria that has been associated with miscarriage or pre-term labor. The Fetal Heart Rate Fallacy If your baby's heart is low, you're carrying a boy. If it's high, it's a girl. The You-Can't-Be-Too Careful Yarn If a pregnant woman raises her hands above her head, she'll choke her baby. The Steamy Sex Superstition Making mad, passionate love will induce labor. "Sex is not going to cause you to go into labor, but we tell people to go ahead anyway," says Dr. Stone. "It's worth trying." The Old Heartburn Harangue If a pregnant woman has frequent heartburn, her baby will have a full head of hair. The Sty-in-the-Eye-Lie Those who deny a pregnant woman the food she craves will get a sty in their eye. The Ugly Stick Trick If a pregnant woman sees something ugly or horrible, her baby will be ugly. "That one's wrong on two counts — one is there's no scientific evidence, but number two is that there's no such thing as an ugly baby," says Dr. Eddleman. The Old Java Jive A baby born with light brown birthmarks (known as cafe au lait spots), the mother drank too much coffee or had unfulfilled cravings during her pregnancy. Again, a myth! The Gender Bender If a pregnant woman's face breaks out, she is carrying a girl who will steal all of her mother's beauty. Says Dr. Stone: "The thing about it is that it's so chauvinistic — why is it that a girl's going to steal her mother's beauty? — anyway, it's not true, it's ridiculous. The Poor Complexion Connection A woman who carries wide, is having a girl. A woman who carried forward, is having a boy. "It's a common myth, but it's not true," says Dr. Eddleman. (Drs.

Na to se ne obazirite!Najbesmisleniji mitovi o trudnoći Sa svima ste podijelili presretnu vijest da ste trudni, a obitelji, prijatelji, pa čak i stranci, zasuli su vas narodnim mudrostima o blaženom stanju. Ne uzbuđujte se! Većina tih priča, iako znaju biti zabavne, nisu uopće istinite! Pikantna hrana će vas prevariti!Pikantna hrana može izazvati porođaj. 'U većini slučajeva, trudnice mogu jesti gotovo sve, ali postoji određena hrana na koju ih upozoravamo da pripaze ili da je izbjegavaju, poput jako mekanog ili nepasteriziranog sira. Te namirnice, premda rijetko, mogu imati bakteriju listeriju koja se povezuje s pobačajem i prijevremenim porođajem', ističu dr. Joanne Stone i dr. Keith Eddleman s Odjela perinatalne medicine njujorškog medicinskog centar The Mount Sinainisu i autori knjige Pregnancy for Dummies. Zabluda oko srčanih otkucajaAko su otkucaji srca niski – nosite dječaka, a ako su visoki – curicu. Opreza nikad dostaAko trudnica podigne ruke iznad glave – ugušit će dijete! Seksualno praznovjerjeStastveno vođenje ljubavi izaziva porođaj. 'Seks neće prouzročiti porođaj. Mi savjetujemo ljudima da ga upražnjavaju', kaže dr. Stone. 'Vrijedi pokušati.' Stara naklapanja o žgaraviciAko trudnica često ima žgaravicu, dijete će imati 'punu glavu kose'. Laž o ječmencuOnaj tko trudnici uskrati hranu za kojom čezne dobit će ječmenac. Pazi se ružnogAko trudnica vidi nešto ružno ili strašno i beba će biti ružna. 'To je dvostruka laž; prvo - za to ne postoji nikakav znanstveni dokaz, a drugo – ne postoji nešto što se može nazvati ružnom bebom', kaže dr. Eddleman. O kavi i željamaAko je dijete rođeno s mrljama boje bijele kave, majka je pila puno kave ili joj se tijekom trudnoće nije ispunila neka želja. Opet, samo mit! Ljepota je prijenosnaAko se lice trudnice ospe, nosi curicu koja će joj ukrasti svu ljepotu. Stone kaže: 'To je šovinističko naklapanje – što to znači da će djevojčica ukrasti majčinu ljepotu? – u svakom slučaju, to nije istina, to je smiješno.' Gore – doljeŽena koja nosi visoko, imat će curicu. Žena koja nosi nisko, imat će dječaka. 'To je vrlo česti mit, ali nije istinit', kaže dr. Eddleman. 'Tijekom trudnoće najbolja je strategija savjete prijatelja i rodbine uzimati s oprezom', kaže dr. Eddlemann, dok se savjeta koje vam daje liječnik trebate uistinu i pridržavati.
