This review is from: Baby Lore: Superstitions and Old Wives Tales from the World Over Related to Pregnancy, Birth and Babycare (Paperback)
I loved this book, it's brilliant! As an (immanent) mom to be, I was feeling down cos of my ever-expanding belly and thighs and this brought joy to my day.

5.0 out of 5 stars great for all moms & midwives, March 23, 2005
This review is from: Baby Lore: Superstitions and Old Wives Tales from the World Over Related to Pregnancy, Birth and Babycare (Paperback)
This is a wonderful book that will guarantee hours of fun for all moms or midwives. It had all the nursing colleagues at my hospital in stitches! It would make a fanastic baby shower gift for any expectant or new mom.

This is packed full of superstitions that I have never ever heard before, so its thoroughly original as well as well as being very well-researched.

What I most liked about it was that it was very easy to read, full of just the beliefs and superstitions rather than lots of boring academic text.
