Never heard this wives tale....

[Alliestyl]

My friend told me last night that if you have indigestion you're baby will have hair and if you don't then it will be bald. She said it rang true with her three girls. Sounds crazy to me... What do you think?

Its not true. I had heartburn with my daughter all the time....she was bald until she was 2.

Hmm...I'm on the fence about some of these old wives tales but I do believe that some of them are more accurate than not. I've always been told the same tale; however, I was told that the baby would either have a ton of hair or either they would possibly have little to no hair but not completely. bald. Just so happen with my first child (a girl)...she gave me major heartburn/indigestion and she was born with so much thick and long hair you literally had to "dig" to find her scalp...needless to say...its still growing like wildfire and it makes for a long process maintaining all of that hair. This time I'm pregnant with a boy and I have mild heartburn/indigestion so I cant wait to see what his head of hair reveals but for now I really feel like there is some validity to these wives tales...we shall see...lol. Not to mention, while technology has advanced over the past decades, at one point women weren't privied to technologies assistance to help decipher baby "tale-tell"  signs so they relied on certain universal commonalities to help them determine things like that (i.e. gender) and more times than not they were dead on, so, I really do believe in most of these old wives tales.

Congrats on baby and may your baby be super healthy and possess a head full of hair either way

I had heartburn with my son and he came full head of hair and all over. My girls no heartburn they were bald.
