Full Moon /Eclipse

So therea a saying, that if you go out during a full moon or eclipse while preg. The moon has some type of effect on the baby (that it will "eat" part of its lip away, sumthing like that) i know it sounds crazy but i kind of belive it. So i know that your supposably have to wear a red ribbon around your belly. But is it only that or do you also have to wear a pin?!

I can hear my grandma already : "mija te pusistes un segurito? " .  This is an old wivestale and we mexicans have so many. Many of them don't make any sense but we do them just because ...( in my case to nor hear my mother or my grandma)lol. I totally dont do this one , it kind of doesn't make sense to me but I get where you are coming from. I think this is only done during a solar eclipse.

It's a lunar eclipse not a solar eclipse. A lunar eclipse occurs when the earth is inline and inbetween  the sun and moon.  It is the solar eclipse that should not be viewed without protective eyewear.
