Child Birth Practices
After the Christian birth, the woman is blessed with holy water. She is then expected to
recuperate for 40 days, with family and servants looking after her. Baptism of the babies is
based on a Levite practice whereby girls are baptised 80 days after birth and boys, 40 days
after birth.
Muslims celebrate seven days after the birth with a 'naming day' and again after 14 days
there will be another celebration. She is also expected to have a long period of rest after
childbirth.
