Home renovation

yes it’s a pantang thing. i can’t even fix a broken window grille or paint a hole on my wall because it may affect the baby. one example my mil said to scare me was her friend’s baby had a big red birth mark on the face because she painted her house while pregnant. 😮‍💨 to be on the safe side we just listen to them. if not i would never have heard such things. esp pregnant ladies cannot even be around, much less do the DIY

Superstition but best to listen to the elders. my mum told me not to nail a loose painting to the wall as the sound will affect the baby. however, my neighbours who just moved on next door drill and drill whole day. 😐so I asked my hubby to nail the painting while I am out to appease my in laws. sometimes, its best to create harmonious relationships with in laws for small matters like that, no matter how independent you are.
