I'm currently 23wks pregnant. Was invited to cousin's bb full month celebration.Wanted to go very much but heard that according to Chinese custom...best not to go as may not be good for me/bb. Is there such a thing or custom or "clashes" stuff? Will it really be bad for my bb?Felt it's superstitious but just want good for my bb at the end. Any comments?

Superstitions are often rooted in some form of truth. I agree with the parent above. She makes a good point about having a new mommy and a pregnant mommy in the same room. It could simply be due to a social etiquette -- it's someone else's party and you could take the attention away by being there? Check with your elders and your cousin -- if they say it's okay and you're comfortable with going then why not. But if you have some doubts and are a bit superstitious, it's okay to stay home too. You're pregnant and too much excitement at the party might not be too good for you :) Take care!
