Recovering from childbirth
An interesting article about Malay and Chinese customs for new mothers:
"In both ethnic Malay and Chinese societies here the confinement month, or "berpantang" in Malay, remains as important in the modern world as it was in ages past.
While the Malays resort to traditional massages and bodywraps to rid themselves of toxins and baby-fat, the Chinese drink lots of wine to recover from childbirth."
