My grandmother always said that when a love one passed on and there was a pregnant woman in the family the baby would be the same sex as the loved one that passed on.

do you think that is true, why or why not?

this is a two part question

second part,

do you think the spirit of a loved one who has passed on can return to the body of a new baby?

why or why not?

please no fights, there are no right or wrong answers to these questions it is just a matter of believe especially part 2

I believe each person has their own soul - and I don't believe any one can live on in the body of any new person coming into the world...

my wife believes that our daughter is in fact her mother reborn.She does find certain traits in our daughter that were there in her mother.I do not believe that this is plausible but the belief is something that cannot really be dislodged from one's mind and as long as it is not harmful one should not try too hard as it will hurt the person concerned.

also another very good point, to make some believe it is possible others don't

Maybe winterose, heard this story from an Indian, we always believe in this, that a loved one is always born back to us. That is because we believe in reincarnation and Karma. We always believe, that we wont go to the heaven immediately, and we go to the heaven only after washing all our sins in the earth.

yep I do believe the departed will look over the new born as well.

That is a wonderful explanation danishcanadian. I also feel that our loved ones will always be near us, or in heaven looking after us.

Fights? I think that this is a Old Wive's Tale for sure. I think that it did happen afew time and so someone came up with the idea. It may happen occasionally but only if Fate deems it so. If the soul needs to stay close to the family for some reason then this may happen. Not very often though.


myLot reputation of 93/100. winterose (18789)   ranked 476 out of 26,919 in people  3 years ago

yep because in the first case there is a 50 50 change so naturally sometimes they will see it happen

But rarely I am afraid.

Hi. I have not heard of this tale before. So for question #1, I really don't know if possible. I'm still trying to think of any past experiences which I could relate to this tale. For question #2, I think it's similar to the theory of "reincarnation" wherein a person's soul enters/re-live in the body of a newborn baby. But I think a soul may be reincarnated in anybody even if not a relative. As for the common traits/habits among relatives, I believe it's more of genetic and not really reincarnation.

I do not know about this, but I would like to mention an incident in my life. When my son was born, 20 years ago, he was very sick, and we had a lot of problems in bringing him up, he was always sick, and we thought we might loose him. One evening my grandmother blessed him, and said let him take all my years, and let him live till my age, she must have been about 78 years. The next morning she passed away,the death was quite sudden, one minute, she was standing, and the next minute, she fell down, and just died.Of course she died a very happy woman, because she wanted to see a great Grandson, and she was able to see him, and put him on her shoulders. My sons illness went away, and he is studying in a college now.
So, it is just a matter of belief, that I think she is somewhere out there, looking after us.
