Icy Water

Im someone who dont believe in superstitious (pantang). I may follow some but with valid reasons. Ive been drinking icy water and cold food way before i was pregnant up till now in 3rd trimester. I get annoyed whenever people confronted me and say “cold again. Later your baby got asthma” i just sarcastically laugh at it everytime cos i dont wanna be rude. Can people just stop with all this nonsense pantang? Please do a research i meant lots of research and find the actual reasons behind those pantang. I can say 90% of all the pantangs are myth. I still respect those who follow pantang but please lah dont give such comments about my baby having asthma or what just because i never follow their belief 🙄🙄🙄

That’s not the only thing though. The worst thing I’ve heard in expecting mums group chat on WhatsApp group: Drink soya milk so baby comes out white. Avoid black sauce or whatever dark sauce else baby come out black. I told them off about: 1. Racist as f and insensitive to other races with darker skin colour 2. Being so uneducated - like hello 2022 liao please read about genetics and hereditary. To note: I am born fair skinned but I just find this skin topic so triggering. 🙄
