Weird Old wives tales about pregnancy....pantang stuff

I have heard TONNES of weird things that old people say about being pregnant..this can't do..that can't do...some are proven but some are just plain rubbish...so here I have a list of what i know about weird tales about what pregnant women can or cannot do. 

Before you’re 3 months pregnant, you must not tell people about your pregnancy to avoid miscarriage 
Total Rubbish. Nobody tells people becos before 3 months, the risk of miscarriage is higher..it DOESN'T cause the miscarriage.

Must not move house to avoid miscarriage. Another Rubbish....You are not allowed to move house becos it involves carrying heavy stuff and IF you have a low lying placenta or any medical condition it will lead to bleeding and if you have a normal pregnancy, it will cause back ache. Nothing to do with miscarriage.

Cannot sew anything because the baby's anus will end up with NO HOLE. RUBBISH. It is due to defect..not sewing...GOSH

Cannot paint, because your baby will have patches, or whatever ugly birthmark...RUBBISH. It is not recommended to paint cos of the poisonous fumes...not the birthmark or patches...=.=

Eat all you crave...becos if you dun, your baby will drool a lot when he or she comes out.. RUBBISH. WHERE IS THE DAMN LINK???!!!

Cannot eat crab..becos baby will end up being very hand itchy..this wanna touch that wanna touch..NO LINK RUBBISH. Its more of the cholesterol level den the baby coming out hand itchy...

Cannot sit cross legged becos baby will end up with bow leg...HELLO?!?!? WAD RUBBISH. Most Asian babies are born with bow leg which will become straight after a few months. Its due to genetics not how the mum sits...

ALL RUBBISH......FAINT....
