Its a myth. You arent going to get sick or shiver because you like ice and cold water lol.
Okay so about the shivering after birth thing? Have anyone of yous experienced it or heard about?
Yeah the eating ice is related to low iron so I would have your doctor check it and your baby could just like water lol
I'm not sure about it making you sick but I do know that eating ice is a sign of low iron..I have been eating ice like crazy and at my last apt I told me Dr about it and she checked my iron and sure enough it was low..now I'm taking iron pills twice daily!
