I can't believe I finally found the answer, I've been trying to figure out for 13 years why my oldest son has several sunflower designs on the right side of his face and forehead.... Now I know...thank you... truly.😊
There was someone who believed if she had henna while the baby was growing then the baby would come out the same colour of the henna...IT WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED IF SHE HADN'T CHEATED...and I wouldn't know this because THE COUPLE WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN ARGUING IN THE HALLWAY
Well that can happen, but trust me, it’s not because of the dye😂 if she dyed , her hair, blue or green the daughters hair still would come out the same But such coincidences are the reason why people believe it😂
@@tigerdove7792Oh, the same thing happened to me, but it was because it faded to blonde. My mother never died her hair red. It’s just genetics! Only my Mémé, and her’s was strawberry blonde, which was nowhere near the red I had!
Oh yeah, same energy. I honestly thought that was complete fiction the 1st time I heard it as no one could be that dumb, right? But someone else said it's a true story. Still not totally convinced but the more wacky stories I hear like this tattoo one make me think the nose job story could be true & honestly that makes me angry & sad at the same time.
When I was in college and heard a girl shouting "OUR BABY CAME OUT LIKE THAT BECAUSE YOU'RE ALWAYS DRINKING COFFEE!!!" It was her ex's baby...the ex had an olive completion...smh
I’ve also heard of pregnant women being told to not take a bath so they don’t drown the baby 🤦♀️ Edit: I know babies don’t drown when a woman is pregnant with them 😐 Edit 2: I know just about everything about pregnancy, I’ve been pregnant before. Please stop telling me how amniotic fluid works. I KNOW.
I actually laughed out loud at this one- yeah no, taking a bath while pregnant won't drown the baby. You can Google it or look at a biology textbook if you don't believe me
@@br5289i mean let’s even start at the point that taking a bath not pregnant doesn’t even fill your uterus or other inside organs with water. We would all be bloated after taking a bath.
Med student here, unless I'm completely wrong, there can be some level of possible transmission of toxins from skin to baby. Like any other organ, the skin can absorb things you put on it. At least to some extent. In theory, if you were using something skin or exposure toxic, there might be room for the baby to get a dose of that toxin alongside you. Of course, if you're using skin safe / toxin free dyes for your stuff, then there isn't an issue. Still don't know how they think it'll stain the baby tho.
@beepbeepboopboop3822 entirely fair. I personally have no idea what's actually used to get the effect, I was just sharing the only reasoning I could think of to cause the complaint.
@@Ashoka...232 understandable lol, I had to double check before I made the comment tho 😂. I've gotten henna a lot at fairs and they only last for a few days and then they wash away, so they don't have very long to absorb
@@beepbeepboopboop3822 I know my sibling has done it on themself and had it last for weeks, but that could have been reapplications that I didn't know about.
@@Ashoka...232 everyone's skin is different, it lasted on my friend for a day and for me a week. It also could have something to do with how long they let it dry, the longer you leave it the longer it can last to an extent
Which is supposedly more so for those in first trimester. At least that’s what my doctor recommended for me. But it’s not because the baby could drown. Lol. It has more to do with the woman’s body getting too overheated and causing issues for the baby.
Someone told me my baby was going to be born having pneumonia because I drank a lot of cold water while pregnant. Sometimes the ignorance of people leaves me speechless.
Did you just see the lady on the internet that thought hamburger was made out of him when the server went t o ask her how she wanted her cow cooked. She actually came on the internet and said she didn't know how to explain to the lady that hamburger was made out of ham and she didn't know how to have that conversation and confront her with her ignorance LOL
I refuse to believe that there are grown adults who genuinely think that can happen. Not because I think you're being untruthful, but because I'm trying to manifest a reality where people aren't that dumb. Your designs are stunning and I'm very grateful you share your art with us. 💖
Hahaha!! Manifesting a reality where people aren't dumb sounds like A LOT of work!! Good luck. All the luck. I hope this works. Fingers and toes crossed!!!
There's literally WOMEN who think women only have 1 hole and we pee, poop, and give birth out 1 hole. Some "more educated folks" think we have 2 holes, 1 for poo and 1 for babies and pee (or some combo of that). It's really sad.
Natural henna, from the henna plant, with no added chemicals, is safe to use as a hair dye or on your skin. This type of henna is brown, and it’s often suggested as an alternative to chemical hair dyes while you're pregnant. It gives your hair a semi-permanent colour, and is available in a number of shades. Black henna should be avoided. It contains a dye called para-phenylenediamine (PPD), which can cause severe side effects such as dermatitis, blisters and allergic reactions. Many permanent and some semi-permanent hair dyes contain PPD. But it is illegal in the UK to add PPD to products for direct use on the skin. However, you may still come across black henna tattoos at holiday resorts or at festivals. Black henna may cause you pain in the short term, and damage your skin in the long term. It may also sensitise you to other products containing PPD. This means you'll have a greater risk of having an allergic reaction to products such as hair dyes in the future. If you think you've had a black henna tattoo, and your skin is now itchy or painful, see a doctor immediately.
@@BloodlightRadioRight. Its NOT completely harmless, especially these that disappear quickly. Natural Henna isn’t like this or harmful but these jet black an chemically infused ones are 😢
@@priyakanjilal7748No, this is sarcasm. People have been doing henna and jagua designs on their pregnant bellies for literal centuries. If it’s a professional’s opinion you need, I just shouted at my brother’s mom, she’s a nurse, and she laughed at me and asked if I was stupid. There’s your answer
Do they know something that science doesn't? Hahha. I'm gonna use that. One of my favorite quotes I find myself using is... "You don't get to be offended by science" This new one may assist in other occasions!
@@justcallmejessz3712see, to a logical person, yours makes perfect sense. But to an emotional thinker, you probably just sound rude and they still disagree. But i cant help any further bc I am a logical thinker, but that line has gotten me into trouble before lol
Dude, I am not joking. My parents have disastrous teeth so did I. They put braces on me from 6 to 16 years old. I married a man (this is his account) with weird teeth, and had four children. My children all have beautiful teeth. I have always thought that God and my ancestors saw how much pain I was in when I grew up that they granted my children good teeth. The explanation of me moving my teeth somehow affecting my genetics I don't know if makes more sense, or less, than mine.
I’ve never heard of this and it is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen. ❤ Side note, I’m looking at the comments and note remembering all the awful advice I received when I was pregnant. My favorite was that I was going to catch a cold in my vagina if I didn’t dress the way women wanted me to. Stay strong out there mommas, this world is a rough place. 🤦🏽♀️
"Stain the baby!?" BWAHAHAHAHA!!!! I AM in the medical field and I can promise all those who may be worried...THE BABY IS SAFE and this will not mark the baby in any way. Gorgeous work! I wish I had this done with my pregnancies. ❤
Interestingly, you shouldn't bleach your hair while pregnant. Not because of any harm to the fetus, but because pregnancy hormones can effect the condition of your hair.
As someone who is a biology/science/animal major. I can confirm, temporary marking will not hurt the baby. I would just not make it a real tattoo as it could cause stress and not look good post partum. Also, when you get henna on your hand, does if stain your bones? NOOOOO, the reason why it washes away after 2 weeks is because that is how long it takes to shed skin. Also did you know that dolphins shed their skin every 2 hours... -from your friendly bio student!!
My ex SIL thought me dying the hair on my head would somehow damage the baby. Edit to add my mother is a licensed cosmetologist and has been since I was about 5 (which ex SIL knew), and I've never had box dye or non-professional grade color on my hair. Also, from when my mom started to the almost 13 years later that'd I'd be pregnant, hair dye had changed significantly. If it hadn't changed so much for the better my mother would not have allowed me to dye my hair while pregnant because it could have been harmful, and I would've listened to her and waited to dye my hair.....not that I would've had much of a choice because she would've refused to get the products for my hair and I don't trust anyone else to do it because the only times I ever have I've gotten my hair royally f-ed up. 🙃
@jeanknight2497 that's a bit different so as a former hairdresser let me explain. The dye in drugstores and the dye in the salon are actually chemically different. Salon dye won't harm anything but some at home she's used to have chemicals that were found to be harmful when passed through the blood stream to the fetus. Any dye that could potentially harm the nugget would have a label on the box stating to not use if pregnant or breast feeding. Hair dye changes the chemical make up of your hair in a way henna does not do for your skin. Henna just deposits color without chemical permanence. So while most likely the dye you used was completely safe, I can completely understand why she would think that.
It’s an old wives tale. Same as if you see something traumatic happen when you’re pregnant. There are a ton of them and people pass them down for generations and I’ve personally met plenty of people who genuinely believe these things because they’ve been told so much. People tried telling me the same while I was pregnant every time.
When I was pregnant my mom would tell me not to reach above my head. Something about things tearing inside. Did yoga through my first pregnancy. That’s a lot of stretching and reaching.
I think for trauma it's right? I mean, it's not gonna leave a mark but if the woman is in stress and goes through trauma its gonna affect the health of the baby ??
@@TheRamiiian increase in stress affects hormones and such but a specific traumatic event affecting a child is a wives tale. The baby will never inherit any neurons or memories from the parent. It’s more so a high stress environment creates a less healthy person. A woman having a single traumatic event during pregnancy won’t correlate to any health conditions.
@@TheRamiiiyes babies nervous system develops and forms it's baseline based on moms. One trauma won't hurt baby but if mom is severely traumatized baby will carry that in their DNA
There are layers of skin, fat, viscera, muscle, and the uterus between the henna and the baby. Anybody who thinks it'll stain the baby is braindead. Even if it did stain the baby, this henna is beautiful. I'd love to be born with permanent henna.
It’s usually d people of “the book” that do these things because they don’t want something pagan/polytheistic practice contaminating “their” culture. It’s y tattoos were frowned upon. Same with “wedding gown should b white, or plain”, it was considered a sign of being civilized. Many such propoganda was used against d pagans that wouldn’t convert, to build social pressures over d centuries. This is how cultures adapt weird practices over generations.
Ok, I can stand with not walking the dog as they can sometimes drag you and can result in a fall. But tangling the umbilical cord?? These people should put forward much more sensible reasons
There is a thing called a Amniotic sac which is a thin-walled sac that surrounds the fetus during pregnancy, so there is no way that it would stain the baby
I'm so so so happy to see a hairy tummy 😍☺️ Us women are human beings with hairy bodies too! I'm tired of seeing cosmetic ideals looking like they were waxed an hour ago 😫😔
I always thought that was for small children who either don’t understand that toilets need water to flush, don’t understand that display toilets are not hooked up to water, or think it’s funny
DONT DO THIS!!! If you do, the baby inside the belly may grab the henna cone from the belly button, train henna for 9months and will be a master henna artist by birth!!!!!!😡😡😡
Ooh so, this is actually pretty interesting. As we know allot of our fables/superstitions date back to or evolved from the oral history of our various ancestors (think how in the Abrahamic religious texts people were told not to consume pork because of the risk of food born pathogens and parasites pre the understanding of germ theory and modern refrigeration). Now modern medicine pregnant people are typically advised not to change/come into contact with soiled cat litter, and to get their cat tested for/stay away from cats that have tested positive for… TOXOPLASMOSIS! Why? Because toxoplasmosis has been connected with infant death/miscarriage and a large range of Birth-defects (most of which would have been fatal pre the advent of modern medicine). However the toxoplasmosis parasite would not be discovered until 1908, centuries after this myth’s origin. So the theory is that our ancestors created the superstition of cats stealing the souls of babes likely as a way to explain, or diagnose the cause of infant death/miscarriage in a time before modern medicine, and sadly the poor cat drew the short end of the stick.
No, no. They steal their breath. But if you ask the fools who say that exactly how does a cat can do that, they just sort of stop and get all butthurt that you pointed out their stupidity.

Ooh there’s actually some anthropologists who believe this superstition evolved from the “complications” that would arise when a pregnant person contracts toxoplasmosis, which as toxoplasmosis wouldn’t be discovered until 1908 centuries later, the only common factor they could see was the poor cat, and so this warning was passed word of mouth for generations until the warning of cats (specifically a sick cat) can cause serious “complications” to bebes became the superstition we know today 😊
@@The_Cloth_Surgeon A simple and likely more accurate explanation, since the superstition is the cat stealing the baby's breath, is the cats would probably lay on the nice, toasty warm infants and accidentally smother them. A person would then find the comfortable cat on top of a deceased infant with no real indication of what happened and just blame the cat with its magical, evil powers Toxoplasmosis in infants causes jaundice, swollen lymph nodes, swollen eyes, hydrocephaly, fever. All things that just look like a terrible illness and not a cat stealing breath.
I'm sure people blame lack of estrogen or abundance of testosterone for female body hair, but my belly hair nearly disappeared when I treated my estrogen dominance/nullified most of my estrogen production. And I was hairiest when my estrogen was at its highest. Just a fun fact for the people in the back who think hair happens when women aren't female enough. Estrogen literally causes hair growth.
That's okay. My sister...who had two kids at the time...told me that the umbilical cord to the baby is attatched to your belly button. I had to inform her that the umbilical cord is attatched to the placenta that is attatched to the inside of the uterus no where near the belly button. Some people don't know how pregnancy works even after they have kids of their own. I'm not surprised.
@@sufferinthedepthsofhellThe ink can't get far enough to actually have an effect on the baby directly, the needles don't penetrate that deep and there's a whole bunch of muscle and tissue between skin and womb. That said, there are other much more important reasons not to get an actual tattoo when you're pregnant.
@@SqarletGecko I'm sorry. Did you just say Henna tattoos use needles? Like the non permanent/temporary tattoo that they give at amusement parks? Bro what😂
or "can't you pause it?" lol yea I've heard this one before, by an old grown ass man. I had to school him on the female reproductive system and he didn't like it. lol
If think I can help explain this, in the Uk for example there is a lot of old folk lore which suggests that things a mother does to her body can transfer to her baby. In the past a lot of birthmarks for example were explained by something that happened to that part of the mother’s body. I would guess this sort of superstition is not only a Uk thing and other countries have their own which may be similar or slightly different. Basically though it is sadly society finding a way to blame the mother for something beyond her control. I want to make clear this is not how birth `defects’ are caused its genetics and not in anyway the birth givers fault. Whilst these superstitions are interesting they are not real in these cases. I hope that may explain why people are still connecting harm with something totally harmless, the only way the foetus could be harmed is by using toxic or poisonous chemicals that can get into the blood stream and that is not the case with your beautiful art. Best wishes Lindz x
@@rs-mt6klunfortunately when it comes to babies, common sense isn't that common. There are still people that think pregnant women can't take baths because they think the baby breathes thru the mother's belly button. XDDD
@@rs-mt6kl I am going to clarify my point in today’s society there is no reason people should see any of these beliefs as anything more than our ancestors attempt to try and protect a unborn child from things they had no ability or education to explain. I’m going to give our ancestors a pass, and part of me feels some superstitions deserve to be kept. This said I have over the last 4 years seen people result to weird things to avoid vaccines, believing that 5g can do all manner of things that it just couldn’t do, and books being removed for stating fact. I want deep down to agree with you and for the most part of humanity I think you are very right but sadly there appears to be a growing number who are rejecting proven science for what mad aunt Fanny said in her Facebook group of MLM worshiping, flat earth believing, urine swilling and hall stone rubbing friends!
I can confirm. I have a full sleeve of tattoos because my mother got a henna tattoo when she was pregnant. …don’t ask why it didn’t show up until I was an adult, cost a lot of money, and had a completely different design. 👀
OHHH NOOOO!!!! THE BABYS GONNA HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DESIGNNNNNN (ik it’s not possible but like- that would be sick to be born with such a beautiful design🫶)
People dont give the placenta and uterus the credit they deserve they are TOUGH. they protect the baby from so much. Unless its going into the mothers bloodstream, its pretty much not touching the baby. This is the equivalent on saying "dont stray perfume when youre pregnant. The baby could smell like it when its born"
The cervix too. I’ve heard multiple adults say that pregnant women shouldn’t have sex, especially not late in pregnancy, because it can injure the baby. Specifically I know someone that is adamant that the penis (or fingers or whatever) can hit the baby in the soft spot of its skull and give it permanent brain damage. He doesn’t seem to be aware that the cervix exists at all.
@@Annie_Annie__ YES. my ex argued with me and said pregnant women shouldn't swim because the baby will drown 🤦🏻♀️🤣🤣🤣🤣 I literally couldn't get home to understand reason
I could see some reasons to avoid it when pregnant (allergic reaction, if the dye had something potentially harmful to a fetus when absorbed, etc.) But dying the child? Wild.
Finally somebody says that! I remember a young girl had the Hannah stuff on them and it became inflamed and had to be rushed to emergency, I wouldn't put that stuff anywhere near me just in case.
"Avoid consuming alcohol, tobacco, and certain medications while pregnant because it can harm the baby" Makes sense "Avoid coming into contact with toxic substances that can be absorbed through the skin because it can put stress on the mother and baby" Sure, that checks. "Don't do henna on the mother because the baby will come out tatted" ... I'm sorry?
Okay look henna is a natural Earth and it's not going to harm the Baby you guys are idiot is this on her skin it's not going to go into her system quit bitching the person I like to watch doing She
