myth: Shall we have our own survey to see how true is this?
And then there’s the myth about pregnancy heartburn. You know, if you have heartburn during your pregnancy, your baby will be born with a full head of hair. We did an informal poll of about 15 different women and sure enough, all but one who had heartburn gave birth to babies with lots of hair. Not scientific enough for you? Johns Hopkins University recently did a study showing that there is a connection between heartburn during pregnancy and newborn hair. 82 % of the women polled who had moderate to severe heartburn gave birth to babies with extra-thick hair, and 83% of the women with no heart burn symptoms gave birth to babies with little or no hair at all.
