The belief that pregnant women should not move to a new home seems to have had a long history. In her understanding, there might be several reasons why pregnant women are discouraged from relocating.
One, is the great number of heavy items to be moved in the process, for fear of pregnant women bumping or getting knocked.
Two is the potential residue of chemical substances or radioactive materials present in the new house or furniture, which could harm the fetus.
Three, she speculated, might be somewhat related to superstitious beliefs.
After all, the fetus "residing at home" suddenly having to move could suggest signs of miscarriage, could it not?
Su Pan'er deduced these reasons on her own.
Initially, when they moved into their new home in Luoyan Village, she had paid special attention to check if there were any radioactive materials indoors. She did not entertain any taboos then, and certainly won't entertain any now.
