Do you believe in that whole eclipse thing ?

Question

I'm not sure exactly what it is , but my MIL called my husband telling him to tell me that theres going to be eclipse at 2 am tomorow and to wear red underwear or put a safety pin on my pants 😳 does anyone else believe in this ? she's hispanic maybe its a belief but idk , I don't really believe it at all . I think it has something to do with protecting your baby ? 
if anyone knows about it feel free to comment

Answer

It's a safety pin or a safety pin with a key (depends on who tells you) above the belly to protect from cleft palate you are supposed to wear it all day and do NOT go outside to look at the eclipse. My family is Hispanic and this is one of the old wives tells...trust me this is one of many!

Answer

yup its mostly a latin thing lol 😂😂 my grandma goes bat shit crazy if i don't do what she tells me when there's an eclipse i do it because it makes her happy and it can't hurt right?

Answer

Clif palate if you don't putetal on pants I think that's what it is

Answer

My mom had me do that with one of my pregnancies, I did it cause she scared me but it's more than likely not true

Answer

Lol I just wear red to be safe lol you never know. But in my family it doesn't have to be panties or pins

Answer

I don't think coloured underwear protect from radiation so I wouldn't worry about this tale

Answer

...why? What is that supposed to do? I've never heard that before.
