      SECTION 1: PREGNANCY

      Life is always a rich and steady time when you are waiting for something to happen or to hatch.

      —E. B. White

      Life takes on a magical quality when you are awaiting the arrival of a baby; this wait is rich with portent, mystery, and promise. During the nine months of your pregnancy, you will have many opportunities to look forward to meeting your baby. Will it be a boy or a girl? What will he or she look like? Be like? You will have your own intuition about the baby you are carrying, and mothers’ instincts are strong. But you should also look to the wisdom and tradition contained herein to learn more.

      CONCEPTION

      If you are trying to conceive and want to influence the sex of your baby, rely on these time-honored rituals. And if you are pregnant already, look to the following beliefs to see if you can divine any information about your child based on your activities around the time of conception. It is good luck to conceive a baby of either sex during a storm of any kind.

      IF YOU WANT TO GIVE BIRTH TO A BOY

      Seven days before conception eat carrots, mushrooms, tofu, and lettuce, and drink fizzy beverages.

      Be sure always to eat breakfast around the time of conception, especially cereal.

      Try to conceive on odd-numbered days of the month.

      Sleep to the left of your partner.

      Point your head north while trying to conceive.

      Make love at night, especially when there is a quarter moon in the sky.

      Place a knife under your bed.

      Try this conception spell: Arrange three candles (one yellow, one green, and one blue) in a triangle, with the yellow candle at the top, the green to the left, and the blue to the right. Find an acorn and a dried leaf from an oak tree and place them in the center of the triangle of candles. Then repeat this incantation three times: From this seed is born the sacred oak. From this union is born my beloved son. Place the acorn under your bed while trying to conceive.

      IF YOU WANT TO GIVE BIRTH TO A GIRL

      Seven days before conception eat fish, meat, nuts, and pickles and drink milk.

      Try to conceive on even-numbered days of the month.

      Sleep to the right of your partner.

      Point your head south while trying to conceive.

      Make love during the day, especially in the early afternoon, or at night under a full moon.

      Place a wooden spoon, a skillet, or a pair of scissors under your bed.

      Have your husband drink from a cracked glass: Legend has it that men who drink from cracked vessels will produce only girls.

      Try this conception spell: Arrange three candles (one silver, one brown, and one blue) in a triangle, with the silver candle at the top of the triangle, the brown to the left, and the blue to the right. Find a rose with a thorny stem. Cut away the stem and place the rose in the center of the triangle of candles. Prick your index finger with a thorn from the stem and squeeze three drops of blood onto the rose.

      Then repeat this incantation three times: Sweet as the rose may be, and as strong as the thorn, from this union of flesh and spirit my daughter is born. Place the rose under your bed while trying to conceive.

      AM I PREGNANT?

      Other than the obvious symptoms—nausea, fatigue, food cravings—there are a few lesser-known signs that may indicate you are pregnant or will soon become pregnant.

      A friend tells you she has dreamed of fish, or you yourself have a dream in which a fish appears.

      You hold your arms in the air for several minutes and your fingertips remain warm but your hands and arms get cold.

      Toddlers suddenly become drawn to you.

      You are in the presence of a baby, and it starts to suck on its toes.

      You find a pacifier on the ground or in a place where a baby does not live.

      A baby looks at you from between its legs.

      According to the 1639 book An Alphabetical Book of Physical Secrets, if a woman sees her reflection in her boiled urine, she is pregnant.

      EATING FOR TWO

      Maintaining a wholesome diet while you are pregnant not only helps you build a strong and healthy baby—it also can foretell characteristics of your child.

      APPLES

      For a rosy-cheeked baby, eat apples.

      AVOCADO

      For a healthy and beautiful child, eat avocado during your pregnancy.

      BREAD

      Do you prefer to eat from the middle of a loaf of bread? If so, you are most likely having a girl. A desire to eat the ends of the bread or the crust points to a boy.

      CARROTS

      Eating carrots will increase your chances of having a baby born with hair. Eating carrots cut into sticks also augurs good health for both you and your baby.

      CILANTRO

      Partaking of cilantro or coriander will lead to a pleasingly plump baby.

      COCONUTS

      Eating coconut meat or drinking coconut water will give
