The RADIATION madness :D

You may have known that some foods and alcoholic beverages are harmful for the foetus. You may have been told that tiredness and stressful environment would affect the foetus badly. You also may have understood that pollutions are bad for the foetus. These are of general knowledge among expecting parents.

But, do you know your television at home may be harmful for the foetus? Or that the printer in your office is so evil to the foetus? or that computer screen, hairdryer, etc you-name-it are conspiring against your precious foetus? No, don’t start to laugh. I’m (trying to be) very serious with this 😀 *grin*.

Most likely, your answer will be a firm “No”. …… Unless you are from China :).

And that’s the main point of this entry. A lot of chinese are so obsessed with protecting their foetus. Apparently, chinese have identified the new evil in the TV, printer, and so-on :D. (Aha, a new business idea: to provide living quarters in caves for pregnant mothers in china *hahahaha*). So, they think that those gadgets (TV, etc) emit a dangerous level of radiation. And that’s why, pregnant mothers should protect their womb with ….. a special piece of cloth. It is believed that the cloth blocks any radiation.

We did test the cloth. We used the cloth to cover a mobile phone, and yeah, the phone didn’t get any signal.

We talked about this radiation madness. We conclude that since most chinese can only have one child, then they showered the child with the love too many. If before, they “spoil” the child with abundance food (cloth, toy, etc); now, they also spoil the foetus :). From this point of view, it’s actually quite the same with the chinese-indonesian tradition about specific herbal-food for pregnant mothers.
