Ancient fertility custom

The Han nationality in China has the belief of bed god, which is divided into bed man and bed mother. In the folk belief in bed god, most of them are called "bed girl" and "bed mother", but the name "bed man" is rare.

According to the folk custom in southern China, a baby benefits from its bed mother at birth. Bed mothers should not only take care of and protect their babies from accidental injuries, but also have the responsibility to teach their babies and undertake the work of their early intellectual development. People think that children will smile, frown and pout when they sleep, which is the result of their teaching.

Therefore, it is taboo to wake up sleeping children so as not to interrupt their study. Believing in the bed god is forbidden to violate the bed mother, so you should worship with food, clothing, incense and other things. Considering that the bed mother is addicted to alcohol, she is worried that the bed mother will forget to take care of the baby, let the baby get out of bed, and avoid sacrificing the bed mother with alcohol.

Many folk ways of child care in China are recorded in ancient medical books, but most of them are hidden in the taboos of babies, and many of them are superstitious.

Children degenerate into adults and need the careful care of adults. There are many taboos. The first thing after the baby is born is to break the umbilical cord. The umbilical cord is broken, so it is forbidden to use a knife to cut it. If you must use them, you should warm yourself in your arms for a while. Otherwise, the baby may have "umbilical wind".

When the umbilical cord is broken, you usually take a shower first and then break the umbilical cord. It is forbidden to break the umbilical cord first, and it is also forbidden to wrap the child too tightly and too thick, avoiding urine bubbles and cold evil. In ancient times, people didn't know about scissors disinfection, but they have noticed the importance of umbilical cord to a newborn, which is caused by the accumulation of parenting experience of several generations.
