Product Information

Excerpt from Notes on the Folk-Lore of the North-East of Scotland N the occasion of a birth there were present a few of the mother's female friends in the neighbourhood, besides the midwife. But it was t every woman that was permitted to attend. A woman with child was t allowed to be in the room and if two women with child happened to be living in the same house when the one felt the pains of labour, they took a straw, or a stalk of grass, or some such thing, and broke it, each repeating the words, Ye tak yours, an I tak mine. Neither could a woman giving suck seat herself on the edge of the bed of the lying-in woman, from the belief that such an action stopped the flow of the milk of the lying-in woman. If a woman in this condition did do so unwittingly, and the milk ceased, the lying-in mother whose milk had departed had to get secretly the child of her who had been the cause of the disappearance of the milk, and, with the aid of a friend. To pass it under and over her apron to bring back her milk. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
