In every culture, you will definitely get to read or see some myth. For example, there is a myth that pregnant women should not step on ropes during pregnancy. Because by doing this the child’s nuchal cord gets stuck in the neck. In which the umbilical cord gets entangled in the child’s neck. In the modern era, this myth has been extended to electrical wires.
In the myth, it is not even advised to raise hands above the head while pregnant. Because this can also cause the nuchal cord to get stuck. There is no scientific basis for any of these myths.
